On the crapper, and feeling like you're not getting enough attention?

I doubt the family is back in Alberta. Possibly though.

I'll throw out three: Big Bear, Yosemite, Yellowstone

Coming from the fellow poster who still is trying to get to the Matterhorn after all these years.....

Not wrong

Not wrong either

You're all the attention I need

Canada is quite close, although Alberta is pretty far.

I'm on Orcas Island off the coast of Washington

Shout out to [MENTION=57546]4-Ripcord[/MENTION] for the dimensions although they were only useful until I made a mistake and had to work around it from that point on haha

No drawer?

No drawer?



:tsk:

I made it so a 1.5 ton Harbor Freight Jack fits right where you have a drawer. I'm gonna put some dividers in there to divide tools, tow straps and such.

Sowwy

You need to either weld together a trailer from a kit plan or buy one (open not covered). Before buying my truck my 5x10 trailer held its value more than my ex wife ever could.

I have a feeling a may make another one of these down the line to improve. But for now it will do.

Put a cabinet lift in it, so all I have to do is open the latch and the whole door folds up to the open position

Redoing the firewall tub on the drivers side. It always bothered me. I didn't like the notch in it and it only gave me an inch more of clearance. I got an alignment yesterday to set castor and then I pulled the coilover and started cutting.

Nice! Are you gonna put the 4wd ECU back where it was or relocate?

That last picture scares me. Y'all are brave.

Now when Connor is stuck in bad traffic on the 805, instead of using the brakes he can just use his foot to stop.:bravo:

4WD ECU is on the passenger side, this is driver.

That last picture scares me. Y'all are brave.

Once you cut into something once, it's all the same after that.

Brakes are pretty nonexistent with 35's, so this will definitely be more effective.





So that little 90 degree bit got cut out after this photo, but this is full bump, plenty of clearance.
