Are you gonna mount that Pacer on a shortened Blazer frame??

 

I'll give ya $50 for the front axle

Sweet ain't it.

I was thinking of a run on Jan 7th, and do Reno Pass, another everyone run, but don't expect it to be a dirt road. But stock stuff can make it with a little effort.

 

I'll sell it to you for $5000.

 

Ditto. Inquiring minds want to know...

 

does the rest of the truck come with it

 

No the rest of the truck is $45,000.

 

Something...................

I gotta put them back on but I wonder how ???

 

Know anybody who welds?

Ed

 

Yeah, Randy Ellis does.

I'll work on your brace Jan 2-6, you wanna go wheeling on the 7th?

I know your frame is 17" on the money.

 

Ok, I'll spill the beans. Over the last year, my sliders have migrated upward. Yes I welded them on correclty. So I came up with these "shock absorbing" legs on the way to Moab last October. Finally got a design I liked and was simple. Basically your truck has a suspension to absorb blows, so will my sliders to absorb blows. We'll see how it goes.

I upraded the legs from 1/8" wall to 3/16" wall as well. 1/8" is for center consoles. Just ask Cheese.

I'll probably re-install the sliders tomorrow. This will NEVER be a product as the amount of time to build these is absurd, but when it's for me, it's free.

 

All MIG welded, this is big thick stuff, TIG is better for small stuff.

 

Sounds like a plan. I'm due for another run. I was looking at one of the links for Reno Pass -- indicates a section of 5.0! Looks to be rated that high because of tipping. Know anything more about this?

We should probably start another thread for the trip planning.

Ed

 

I'll make a trip thread, I looked in the Wells book and it does not seem all that bad. Keep in mind it has the same rateing a Sunflower Mine.

We'll be fine. I have a winch.

 

Didn't you say roughly the same thing about your rear bumper?

 

Pics please!

 

Yeah I guess I did, but the bumper is only available in the winter when the moon is in the right spot and you have to pass the SAT or ACT tests I give out.

I am building 3 bumpers right now. Jan and Feb is pretty booked up at well. That will probably be it for bumpers for a while, I don't make enough on them.

 

Just wondering, since the joke is over now, can the thread title be changed to something more shaefer like? This one is just weird coming from you.

 

Anyways, you installed the new sliders...now...WHERE ARE THE PICS?
