Wade is right next to him but truthfully you are all my hero's.

It was fun loading it on the trailer, Shawn backed up and we hooked a chain to the shackle hanger and used my brother in laws truck to pull it up.

Surprisingly nothing broke or got bent. the neighbors came out to see the madness.

Stay tuned for some epic updates over the next few weeks.

Does this mean it will back off of the trailer under its own power when it comes back?

 

[Babaganoosh]

Maybe, but it will be damn close to.

It's going to letz roll off-road shop for 4.56 gears hopefully a truss on the axle and a engine cross bar. It's also going to the exhaust shop and getting drive lines made. Also going to get a base tune on the ecm to enable it to run.

I sure hope my wallet doesn't go dry and I can afford to make it driveable.

I told Shawn I now know what it is like to send your 18 year old off to college. This is the first time in 24 years it hasn't been near a family member. I'm kind of sad.

Looks damn good just sitting on the trailer

 

[Babaganoosh]

That it does. I'm not sure why but this afternoon my arthritis in my knees and wrists are all fired up along with my back. The gf laughed at me when I laid down on my stomach and my back went into a serious cramp.

Looking at the picture on the trailer and knowing what it will be soon makes it perfect maybe a little alcohol is helping to.

 

[Babaganoosh]

Just got this pic. It made my day, feeling like craps running a temp and pretty sure I'm coming down with the flu. what perfect timing.

 

[y5mgisi]

Looks like gears!

 

[Babaganoosh]

4.56 gears to be exact.

 

[Deuling]

Sorry you are feeling like crap. At least its good timing


Now get some sleep.

You and me both.

Looks like it has plenty of down travel for sure.

I love the drum brake jack stand

If I remember correctly it has a 45% bump travel from ride height vs droop. I wanted as close to 50/50 as possible.

I love the drum brake jack stand

what ever works right?

 

[Babaganoosh]

Also 24 hour flu is over, no idea what happened but I'm back in business.... Thank god ain't nobody got time for that.

 

[miniwally]

Thank god ain't nobody got time for that.

Your to white and skinny to pull that line off correctly

Sorry try again.

 

[Babaganoosh]

wasn't going for that but I see your point.

 

[Babaganoosh]

Gears done, exhaust tomorrow. High flow cat into a magnaflow.
