Congrats on starting to get leagal. Hopefully in 6 months you will be ready to go.

My brother got a 8 point deer and it is going in my freezer. It is bow season and I cant hit the broadside of a barn with a bow. Rifle season doesnt open for another month here.

 

Post a pic of the 8 point

 

Congratulations on permit

 

Yes, X3.... CONGRATZ! What an exciting time, ...let alone when you're building the first rig you'll own and drive in! VERY cool!

 

This ain't my first rig chef, its my ninth lol

 

OOOh, hahaha... sorry. I just thought this was the first rig you'd have registered in your name/permit, etc. I musta misunderstood, ....eek! lol. Thought you were talking about your drivers permit and first 'OWNED' vehicle. Sorry dude

 

Its all good chef, it will be my first completely street legal rig tho, and the rig I love the most lol

 

Nice work, I have said my Toyota is a ATV I can drive on the street.
Keep us posted..................

 

I have 2 days worth of work I need to post, will be up either later tonight or tomorrow

 

ok so for a yota update, earlier in the week i rebuilt the head with new valve stem seals, cleaned the valves up, and lapped all the valves. today i took the door and fender off, replaced the bad hinges and it still drops like an inch, any ideas? also mounted the aluminum door panel on the new door with teh sr5 armrest, gotta modify the aluminum door panel for the sr5 armrest sometime soon. took off my grill and replaced it with a less cracked up 84 2wd grill. truck sits without a grill for now because i ran out of paint to finish painting the grill. also painted the trim on the markerlight/turn signals.

 

Great work, man!

 

thanks chef, its just going little by little, might be dropping the bottom end in the motor tomorrow

 

ok so we replaced the bearings in the top of the connecting rod that go around the wrist pin, but the wrist pins fit in there very tightly, is this normal?

 

I like the door panels................

 

thanks, it was like $40 for a big sheet of aluminum, really easy to make too
