Thanks, The wife gets the one on the house. That door is too short anyway. Stayed up til like 1:30 in the morning painting the wife's garage. She was nice and helped too. I need to do some semi-gloss white on the walls. It's just drywall primer right now. The thing looked like a dark cave before.
I will be doing lots more work now that I have room to tear down and do a little at a time. Front springs will be next.
I was going to do 52s but ended up scoring a set of 4" lift Pro Comp front springs for $90 bucks locally. My current setup has 3 leaves and the new springs have 5 so I'm hoping it will ride and flex better plus get the nose down about 2" from what it currently is. I need to get some greaseable bushings from ORD and new u-bolts and move my FUSH back to the stock location. I'm just trying to get the floor cleaned and painted in the shop this week so I can bring everything over from the other house and them maybe after Easter I can move the blazer in and tear it down.
Yeah I've never had them before but they look good. The second leaf runs under the front eye of the main leaf to help support all the way to the end. Look like good springs.
Yeah lots of Rigby is all that new house crap. You prob wouldn't even recognize it with how much it has grown. This one was built in '95 on a dead end street and all 2 ac lots. I will prob be coming over to Meridian in the end of April. My wife's nephew is staying with us and then going to lineman school over there so we might cruise over when he moves. I've never been to that side of the state yet.
Thanks I really like it so far.
Thanks. I'm hoping someday in the distant future to add a lift if I can. There's lots of ceiling height. This looks like a pole barn that they insulated and made nicer. I love the loft for storage. I might open up another doorway into the room under the loft so I can rool engines and stuff in there and use it for a "clean" room for rebuilding stuff. The only dumb thing I've noticed so far is that because of the pole barn beams the one garage door on the end is right up against the end wall so you don't have any room to work on that side of a vehicle parked there but for me it will be plenty of room anyway.
I'll be in the same boat in about a year, so I'm eating up all this info on everyone's shop.
You'll get there. I was like that a few yrs ago before I got this job I have now. I had a small house with a little shed and no garage or carport just a cement pad to work on. It all works. Just keep building your shit and having fun.
