And it continues build thread. Dead.. sent to the scrapyard

Not a huge update spent today. Got a bunch of wiring cleaned up. Painted the cage in the cab, finished up one bead lock, but I think I'm going to have to redo it though because the 2" bolts are just a tad long. I'm gonna have to use the 2" to get started then put in 1.5". I also played around with trailer layout

Man you have to be getting close when you are painting stuff. Sweet!
 
Much as I don't like Purple, you have a way of making it look good Jess!
I like the ideas on the trailer too... are those boxed 6" side rails?

I think so, they may even be 8. That is 3" c channel that is boxed in the white laying on top
 
Figured out exhaust routing for the passenger side. Gonna have to limit up travel more than I wanted or the front shaft will hit the headers.

Got the 2nd bead lock done. Pain in the ass.

Yes sir!! I need a taller bucket. Thinking about making a stand so I don't have to bend over so much.

And yes my tires are dirty, wouldn't you be worried if my tires had armor all on them :D
 
The dunes will clean those dirty tires in no time and have em lookin brand new. :D

Sometimes its nice to doll them up for a nice poser shot for the photo album. Now, if you're out there sprayin' the armor all every weekend, then I'd say we'd need to have a chat.:haha:

what does a CO2 tank like that weigh when full? How many tires would it fill up to 30 from 10ish PSI, do you think? I don't remember what size tire you have.

its a 20lb tank so when full it weighs a little more than 20lbs. It will have about 1800 psi when full. So I should be able to fill my 38.5s up no problem. Its mainly for seating beads etc. This will never see road time so no biggie.
 
Im doin the same thing with my paintball scuba tank, i now co2 tanks will hold more volume but im pretty sure that scuba goes past 2000 psi when full. Im hoping I will be able to air up my tires at the dunes so i dont have to wait in line when im leaving. Still need to figure out a regulator

I'm gonna go with the 125psi fixed
