Nice!
Yes, just like that.
I figured everyone would be surprised if I showed up with a floor. It's only been on the trail for about 5 - 6 years. Why put a floor in now?

you are correct sir
That's awesome Fredo.
Yes, we're close. Bryan Hose & Gasket tomorrow. Need buy and run fuel line. Clutch is awaiting a hose, bracket is done, slave mounted. Steering shaft reconnected, heim bracket done. Steering fluid cooler and filter installed. Fuel pump and filter mounts are done. Motor mounts are completed, but need installing. Wiring harness is completed and nearly loomed. I actually loomed a few other wires. Computer bracket is done (Holla Seth).
Things that won't get done this trip:
- Warn 8274 still has broken mount (under part #77)
http://warn.com/truck/ReplacementPar...srrpl85-86.pdf
- air compressor won't get connected with oiler and filter.
Other old stuff:
- rock lights
- seat covers. I still haven't decided what to do there.
- floor. why bother at this point right?
- rotate tires. Probably not going to get done unless the shop air starts working.
- e-brake. needs wire and handle.
- Klune shifter. needs mount.
- drop tank between frame.
- radio
- cb
- accessory plugs
- cutting brakes (useless with welded rear)
Probably a few other odds and ends that won't get done because they don't keep me from driving it. :)
The klune shifter mount might be one thing that would be relatively easy to do and mark off the list just for grins. I'll call ya'll tonight and maybe stop by. perhaps w/some fresh mill dogs.
I thought you were doing the mudflap for floor? that would take 10 min to do w/ some self tapping sheetmetal screws. get seth to find you an old flap at work.
I might. It's not on the short list for the trip. I didn't see anything to use when I was looking around. Seth doesn't need to get fired over a mudflap.
about your cutting brakes...
I've read on the internet that people have better success with locking up both rear tires and doing a front dig. I've never actually seen a comparison in person so who knows...
I was refering to one that didn't pass DOT...they have to be something like no more than 12" from the ground...as they wear out where they are mounted usually people keep moving them up to get fresh rubber...after a couple of times they get too short.
Yes, this is true, works just as goodQuote:

A little nervous about that, but I guess I can steal them off of the bus on Wednesday night if I need to.
Robert, what's that switch company that you were talking about?
http://www.waytekwire.com/
If you want a thin piece of metal to go behind it with labels like that link above I've got an idea that popped into my head when thinking of how to label the fuse panel.
copper, anodizing dye, and some of that circuit etch solution, and an old school laser printer. It would look like a cross between a brewery, a world war 2 jeep shifting plaque, and one of karl's dads hit or miss engines.

My dad does in fact do that.
do you need manifolds? check the local machine shops...they probably have a set if used.
That would be peemp. -pimp-Quote:

He's Back!!!!!!!11!!1!1!!1
got it running after a pit crew style throttle body rebuild. fired up on the first attempt
Cool - hope it's ready for some extreme trails, were going to hit them hard right away...
If you only knew what that did to me. :rainbow:Quote:

No manifolds in the mail yet. Atkinson Toyota let me down on the slave cylinder hose also. That really pisses me off. 2 weeks to get both of them in and neither made it. After looking more, I think the parts store could have ordered the hose afterall. But not now b/c it's too late. I think it's the same as the brake hose. Ebay dickhead is not responding to any of my emails and his phone number is wrong. He also has bad feedback for slow shipment. ****. ****. ****.
Oh yeah. Tried to weld a bolt onto the broken part on the winch. Now it doesn't work either. Did I say **** **** **** yet?
If you paid with paypal be sure to start a dispute for the charge. It should lock his account which usually warrants some response.
Can Bryan Hose not whip up a slave cylinder hose for your application?
Will ramhead manifolds work? I have some....
