congrats on the job movement.

 

thanks.

so some of the stuff i wanted to put on today didn't show up. but i did get my skid plate back on, the hood-prop clip installed, and this:



3.5 pounds of pure beef

 

wow, that's the best part you installed so far......

 

Sweet relay box! hahaha..... Love it!

Thanks, man... It could be a while before I can find one at a 'great deal', ...but I always appreciate the detailed info, for future reference

Oh, and that armor? SHHHHHHWINGGGGGG! haha. VERY sexy piece of metal, Ian, lol.

 

just in time for rausch creek

 

Nice new shoes Ian! It was definitely time for those old tires to go. Any reason you didn't go with something a little beefier?

 

i daily drive this thing, and i don't want to re-gear (yet)

these are 30x9.5r15 on 15x6 tacoma rims

 

Thought they would be bigger.

 

That makes a lot of sense. I would definitely downsize or get much more sensible tires if I had to drive my truck every day...

 

they are. 235 < 30


yup. there's a bit of road whir, but they did really well on the freeway this morning. the tread depth is much deeper, too, so i should be a lot better-off for this time around

 

Thats what she said....lol

 

Sweet man! Sorry I won't be there when you test them out on their maiden voyage...

 

it's ok. you know there'll be tons of pics, and a few videos

i still have 10 more from that trip, but this weekend's vids are still uploading right now

 

also, i'm happy to report that i gote a scrape on my e-locker motor gaurd. $40 well spent!

 

Those videos came out great! I will have to steal some for my build thread. Thanks for posting them up!

 

Great vids, Ian... nice navigating through the 'stuff's' there

Very cool news on the 'ARMOR SAVED MY E-LOCKER'! Woot!

 

You ok? Gonna check in with RB and yotaluver too. I didn't realize those storms went through that area the other day.

 

you're asking the person who spent 2 nights outside in a trailer with supplies to spend the week...



yeah, i'm good here. my neighbors are sol, i have power. i got power cords running across the back yard and across the street. power lines are still down on my street and our ford got extremely lucky



(branch was in middle of street, truck parked on curb, tree ~10 feet from curb next to truck; left to right)

 

WOW! Glad you're safe, Ian Trees are deceiving... I've seen chunks of them that wouldn't SEEM to be big enough to, but do, CRUSH large vehicles... VERY scary!
