Havin fun's build

I'll IB you.

Gotcha ya I was in my previous life, after service & hippie days drove from about 27 till 34 for small co outta Phoenix still throw the jargon out now & then , but now I'm a caddie for the rich & spoiled who like to golf . Always played when I was younger . When did you ask me that ? I'll go back & look see where I was .
 
Not sure when I ask, think in the middle of comments. Had my suspicions, as you can tell.
I do highway repair, asphalt, dirt and rock. Demolition and safety barriers. Used to do construction for 25yrs myself, still have my license, but, the economy made me change 12 yrs ago.
Sounds like my road dog needs to stop by and do a round so you can laugh at me.
 
Boy would I like that , its getting HOT here early . Kinda funny caddied for a guy from there cpl wks ago . his biz was dakind if you get my drift ?? Business must be good says he sell all over cali & more sorta legal
 
Gotcha, popular around these parts.

I think they took my dog off his vegas runs with the cuts for the military.
Don't think he would survive the drive in my ride. Might have to see about this when the weather cools down, down there, the heat would kill him. 320lber. Unless they have a/c on the carts. LOL. YAH RIGHT.
 
Decided to try a K&N filter. Will see how this works in the long run. Also decided to convert to full synthetic fluids also.

reason for armor

Here are some photos for the reason we put armor on are rides, especially if you wish to get to them, where no man goes to fishing holes and don't feel like hiking all the way in.

Finally decided I need to fill some holes in this bumper. Installed Piaa's 510 ATP'S. 6 months later.

I tested the wiring set up the night before and the Piaa logo was doing to much blockage of the light. Removed. Will see how if I like the covers on, if not easy remove. This completes my fog light mod, fog on with fog only, drl, lo, high on factory switch.

sliders

As we all know, toy's plastic sliders aren't made to with stand too much abuse.
I personally think they held up pretty good considering the abuse I put them through. Time to go though.

Sliders look great man! Did you get that door scratch during our last trip?

OH YEA, along with others. You guys gave me a run that definitely tested all my work I have done to my 4r. Definitly got to find out what she can really do and get through. Many thanks Rob and others for the adventure and company that weekend, much appreciated, :yo: will have to do some more for sure.

For sure man I had a blast on that trip! We're going to knock this build out pretty quickly... We're starting Monday and we should be done in 4-5 weeks. So we will be able to get some fall runs in before we start snow wheeling again, hopefully you'll be free and we can plan some weekend camping.
 
Differential Bracket

I did this last winter when I had some free time. Noticed I never put this in the build. Notice how certain members where breaking them and decided, hey I can weld, why not give this a try, doesn't cost anything, but, time. Thanks to Austin(AHA) and Kurt with a few Ib's for helpful hints on how to deal with the casted iron.
