haha i will tell him that. He just thinks off roading is a hick thing to do. But i dont care, he can suck it

 

My dad finally saw a picture of my new wheels and he said it looked so red neck that my step mom almost cried. hahaha I cant wait for him to see the cb!

Today i fixed my 4 wheel drive, just pulled off the vac lines right next to the diff and cleaned them, now it works great.
I will be getting a set of aisin hubs from Kiyobrown, and i finally talked my buddy into finishing my damn skid plate for his school project.

 

Sweet!!

 

Nice! 2door are you gonna go to the toy run?

 

Thanks. Yep, its gonna be fun!

 

Nice! we should hook up for the ride up to the walmart to meet up with everyone.

You mean these?!?!?!?!?


HAHAHAHAHA! I got em painted and cleaned off the letters, just gotta clear coat em tomorrow and reassemble in a couple days. Beautimus!!

And you were gonna buy my Warns!! For shame!

 

she probalby wants you for you nice ass runner

 

Yeah sounds good to me, we will have to find a spot to meet up. And not yet, im planning on starting the install today.

Wow! Those look great! I cant thank you enough for hooking me up with some nice hubs.

Haha yeah probably, or as she calls it, "my trucky thing"

 

BAM!!



You'll just need a set of gaskets from the dealer, and you will be ready to roll!!!

P.S. If your stepmom cries when she sees them, DO NOT TELL HER MY NAME!!!

 

ooooOOOOOoooo!!! Shiny!!

 

Hey! Howd the install go? I just made my Hi-Lift's mount on my 4runner...

 

Amazing, even my mom and step dad were impressed, and they have no clue what they do haha. Thank you so much for doing that, they look spectacular.

I got my antenna installed, i put it on the drivers side of the rear bumper. I will get pictures tomorrow. Can you explain how grounding the cb works, my boss was saying there is a ground wire integrated into the coax, and that i have to cut the insulation to get to it. Is he right?

 

Lol yes, yes he his...

What i did is just went out and got a mount with a screw in...
Basically you have to strip the coax, identify the wires, and ground the wire to anything bare metal.

So i was just a lazy f'er and got a different mounting system... I got it from a place in everett.

if you want tomorrow we can meet up and i can show you, it was fairly cheap, looks better, and IMO probably works better too.

 

Found an image, (from wikipedia)



That outer braid, is what you use for the ground. put a connector on the end of that to screw it to bare metal.

And the inner core you attach to your antenna.

 

Cool thanks birdbrain, i would meet up, but i got alot to do tomorrow. after school im going to work untill 530, then a guy is meeting me there to buy my wheels and tires. I also have to get my cb wired in. I might give you a call if i have a question.
How long did the install take you?

 

I cant find anything on the grounding. I dont know if i need to do that to both ends, and i cant get the screw on peice to come off my 18 foot coax cable . Do i even need to take it off? or can i just cut the insulation right below it?
Sorry if none of this makes sence. I might have to end up getting you help birdbrain haha

 

Lol no problem man. Feel free to give me a call now and i can explain it better over the phone.

 

Do you think we could meet up somewhere at like 630 tomorrow? Or you could pm me your adderess and i will map quest it. Do you live far from woodinville skatepark?

 

630 tomorrow when? The morning?

I live right near there, hell i used to go to that high school. Its like a 5 minute drive.
