Post up your BB15 build progress

taking out the rear blocks and installing add-a-leafs, 1 side done, it's hot out, going to do other side shortly
 
you'll still come, l;ots of people will give you rides, I bet you can show Ben how to drive his 82...
 
6.0L went in last weekend, hopefully have her running this weekend:thumb:

:thumb: Nice. I wanted to crawl around this in Moab this year

I went backwards. Should nit wheel 3 weeks before BB. The Jimmy will not make it.

That's why I didn't go this last weekend. All I did was put mine up on some rocks by my house to make sure clearance was fine with the new 44's. That way if/when I break, at least I am in Moab first :D.

That sucks to hear you had a big break like that. Especially bending up one of your expensive shocks :eek1:
 
I'm having to re-prioritize my "before Moab" check list. Looks like I'll be replacing another A/C compressor and fuel pump before I leave...

I was thinking about the same thing, but I think I'm glad I did go because otherwise I would have been replacing a ignition module on the way to Moab. That would have greatly added to the stress!
 
That sucks, especially since you ran Iron Chest a couple of weeks earlier with me and the New Mexico crew.

Breaking the welds on tabs for the hydro-assist when we did Holy Cross was an omen...:doah:

Best wishes for your wife and her recovery. Hope you will be at BB anyway.

For sure, there is the idea that you work out the kinks first before draggin to BB. And those freaking ignition module's on these TBI's are so common about going out. I always carry a spare in my K5 now that I have TBI...that and an extra fuel pump...but you remember why I do that don't you? :haha:
 
Don't worry, I told everyone the story when we ran Twin Cone Sunday....
 
That sucks Wade, nobody in your area can rebuild the shock for you? You should be able to just replace the shaft and rebuild it. Shouldn't be more than a couple hundred...
 
It's the time and drive to get it done. And the money.

New plan.

Driving the Malibu out Friday. A friend is meeting me there. Renting motorcycles for Saturday. Been wanting to do that for years. Go home on Sunday. Money saved on fuel will be spent on 2 wheel fun. Will be good to be on a KTM 300 for a day. More excited about this than BB. Sorry.
