you should a take care of that little rust issue ya got lol

 

oh and NICE bronco and F350

 

Yeah, I've been thinkin about it. Havnt had the time here recently, but I am going to get to it here soon. Thanks, we just got the 350 fixed the other day and started the Bronco for the first time in about a year and a half. Runs good still.

I did a little looking around on my truck today also. Found where my oil leak is, yes i have an oil leak. Its coming from the bottom of the oil pump. I think that the gasket is gone. The passenger side shock rubber bushings are worn out so far that they really aren't there. I took the last remaining shock off of the rear and now it rides like a damn basketball. Looks like I have some work ahead of me. Oh yeah, my driver side torsion bar is adjusted 1/4 inch higher on the adjustment stud than the pass. side. This causes the driver side tire to wear out the very outer portion of the tread quicker. Gotta pay attention to that routine maintainance. I slacked for a while.

 

I got new shocks tonight. Its not really a mod but more of an improvement. The rear has no shocks and the front only has one halfway good one. I will be installing them in the morning. There will be pics.

 

Alrighty then, I got the shocks on today. Just stock replacements for now. There ended up being only one good one before I decided to fix it. I rode around here with no rear shocks for the last two weeks, needless to say it rode like a basketball. Here is the pics.






Going wheelin again this weekend. Should be alot better with the new shocks. I can't wait!

 

Well this isnt anything to do with my build up but I thought I would share it with everyone, its my buddys dads FJ with a chevy 350.

This was on Holy Cross two weeks ago

 

Anymore before/after pics of your cab floor?

 

how do you go about getting something like that off the trail? does he carry any spare parts?

 

I havnt done much more too it. I have peeled up the rest of the tar stuff. The money supply ran low so I had to put the fixin up on hold. I have been driving it around and wheelin it as is. I am looking forward to fixin it as soon as I replenish the funds though.

They towed/drove it off of the trail. They were only like a mile in, but still no bueno. Hes got a replacement axle sittin on the ground at the house.

 

Hey I saw you in Frisco the other day. I wasn't in my yota though.. Driving the lowered Ford Ranger haha..

Oh right on. I was stayin at a friends house in Silverthorne from thursday night to monday night. Prolly again this weekend sometime too. I am lookin for a job and a casa up there.

 

Cool, Long move from where you at now huh. What shocks did you go with?

 

Its about two hours from home. I like it that way. I went with $18 stock replcements from Auto Zone. I wanted to get longer travel shox but couldnt afford it. They work better than what I had before.

 

Oh I'm sure!. Thinking about some new shocks as well. Hopefully soon.

 

Small update. New mod that makes easy access to my mag light.

 

What shocks are ya thinkin bout usin? Longer travel?

Oh yeah.... I forgot to post earlier that I have a set of Yokohama 31 10.50 15s for it now. They have like between 70 and 80 percent tread left. They were free 99 so cant beat that. Will have them mounted up in the next few days.

 

Well heres the update. New tires on the truck finally. Didnt go with the 31's. I went with the stock tire size cuz I got a job that requires long distance travel and I need the best gas mileage that I can squeeze out of it. So the new tires are Goodyear Wrangler radials. Not amazing by any means but they keep my truck on the road. No other mods yet, dunno what to do next. Dont really know where to go with it

 

Found this pic from our recent deer huntin trip and wanted to share the road with yall. Didnt take the truck down it but definitly want to.

It is this way for the whole road. Pure awesomeness!

I also saw this on my way to work one day. It aint a yota but still looks frickin awesome

 

Time for some sliders Zach! I've gotta Herculine my 4Runner as well. I've got a gallon of it, just need to pull all the interior, tape it off, and roll it on.
