Anti-wrap is done. Let's see if Jimmy can break it.

If he can't, I will hand him some liquid encouragement to try again. :gigem:
Bump!
Get to work! :flipoff2:
Hope the battery doesn't go dead.......
don't get pissed because Sam has a wheelable rig and you don't
So after 3 years of being in the club with no rig worth mentioning, I finally bought something that is worth having.
Spent the weekend in Dallas hanging out with TAMOR north and going over the Belle with Fred and Jimmy.
Towed her back to her new/old home in College Station. This is the first time I have really towed anything long distance with my new truck, and I couldnt have been more pleased. Had no trouble maintaining any speed I wanted.
I am pumped that I will finally be able to have something to wheel.

Buckwheat got neglected because the battery went dead, the 4 wheel drive didnt work, there was a huge hole in the floorboard, the motor needed to be rebuilt, the brakes sucked, it was IFS, and i didnt have the knowledge to fix any of it and no one would help meQuote:

It makes looking at the rawks under your rig much easier also! :D
so does it need anything.... and since i along with others probably don't want to go thru all 20 pages could you please give us a update as far as specs and coolness that has been done to this well loved rig
It could use a set of tires, as the ones that are on it have a lot of dry rot.
The brakes need some attention, as they are kind of sketchy.
Needs some bump. And I want to get the third seat in for alto.
I need a 5 point warn controller
I might upgrade the seat belt system, as I have a set of harnesses
The only real modification I plan on doing some time soon is to cut off the rusted out rockers and replace them with some 2X4 tube, then tie the cage into the sliders and frame.
I have an almost new warn controller, but the disco doesn't get stuck so I don't need it.
So jimmy decided to scrap it I see

Sam is in a better place in his life now. He has people around him to help him on his road to recovery from his addiction to killing vehicles.
says the guy who has taken more **** to scrap in the last few months than any one else on this forum...Quote:

If you're single traction beam 44 can't handle the 37's you should do a TTB swap!
Disclaimer, this 44 has some sort of locking mechanism in it, so it is not an apples to apples comparison, but still TTB rules!
I think if anything those 37's would be easier on the axles than those big wide 35's that are on there now. You just have to be conscious that you can't get pissed off and crank the wheel hard and hammer down.
