Texan and American beer greatly differ from each other. I mean for starters, its TEXAN beer after all. Aside from the higher alcohol content and whatnot.
But you're right. Most of the time I drink Lone Star. Having an uncle who's a VP at Pabts Brewery has it's perks!
Speaking of which, Brian I'm a little sad that I didn't get any WabFab stickers. I know none of the stuff technically came from you yourself, but I was still wantin to rock the WabFab insignia!

Ok, so I've was wondering about this today...
How well do you think all my goodies'll hold up to some airtime? Cause I must admit, I've very partial to Evil Knievel-ing. Most of the time I try not to take it too hard, just jumping dunes at the coast and whatnot, but sometimes you get the strangest urge to jump a wall thats say 110 feet long, with an incline a hair over 20 degrees, at at speed of over 70. Speaking of which, that's coincidentally how the SwampThing1 died oddly enough! Lol...
But I'm bound and determined to make it next time!

The photo was taken in a side trail off of Camp Creek. It's not really secret, just not many people know about it... or really care to.

Man, its been a few years since I've been out there. If I remember correctly It was a few miles into the wash just before the road closing a few years back when the fires happened. I dont know if that helps any... If I were in that area now, I'm sure I could find it. Or at least give you a better general idea as to where it is. I should really consider moving back, not much wheeling going down in Milwaukee these days, haha.

Well I got the ST2 to the shop. God I can't wait to tear into it! And since I know yall love pictures... My buddy's jeep sittin on 37s (instead of the 40 somethin inch boggers it regularly sits on) to give me an idea of hopefully how tall mine will sit. True mine WON'T be sittin on dana60s like that beast though lol...
Just hope I'll be able to flex somewhere in the neighborhood of how well his does.

Ok well I got off work a little early today and decided to swing by the shop. I swore to myself that I wasn't gonna touch nothing till the weekend, but I couldn't resist! All I can say is thank god for the plasma cutter! WAY cleaner for taking off all the old components than the oxy torch woulda been! Also took off the bumpers, mudflaps, spare tire, and all that other useless crap, but that was after I took these pictures...
Anyhoo, onto the goodies:
Not bad for only 2 hours eh?

You got shirts? That MIGHT make up for the lack of stickers! Haha, just kiddin partner. Naw I aint never got one.
Speaking of which, I was wondering about the steering issue. Was plannin on running it with the ifs steering box (as seen in the picture) without the pump and whatnot for a while, but my bud who owns the shop told me that's not a good idea. So anyhoo, I might have to get with you on that point...

Yeah I know but I want it NOW! Haha...
I've been seriously eyeing my dirty ol dodge. Would be a shame if it turned up missing. Then I might happen to be lucky enough to come across some dana 60s and a cummins motors.
Anyone ever done a 12v in a yota before?? Haha...
