Havin fun's build

wheel bearrings

Had a bad right wheel bearing starting to go bad, Replaced both sides.
Left one was still good and ok, kept it for a spare.

109k.

And just incase you don't have a 3 arm puller to remove, this is another way you can MacGyver it off. Yes been creative in my years.

Growing up and having to get things done without the proper equipment at times, you tend to figure things out with what you got and GET ER DONE.

He was pretty ingenious.
 
Added a RCI fuel tank skid, installing it the easy way. Got home from work and pulled in the driveway, 1's all the way across.

So this Friday, I made a run to the bank and paid off in full the runner.

This same day, my order of 3" Overland dual rate springs came in. Installed, and had to pull the driver side out again to install a spacer to cure the driver lean.
 
Nice build Leonard, I'm jealous of your welding ability and creativity! It's nice to see the wheeling "carnage" too. I'm going to have to try your method of straightening the skids on mine. I cut off the mounting bolts this morning, gave it a good cleaning and will take a look at things later - hoping there's not too much to fix under there!
 
I knew I have been slacking here. Runs to LA and back for a yr, and putting in too many hours a week local now. See if I can get this a little caught up.

Added some support to my Transfer case skid.

Blew my BJs out WAY too soon for the miles I had on them, I'm surprise they didn't break in half with all the movement on them, so got these.

Have the dreaded worn set bottom on driver side, did some search and just to buy that piece was $200+/-. So decided to pick up a set of Okakle seat covers.

Since I'm a dirt bag at times and had my seats removed to do this, I cleaned all the debree and half of the national forest hiding in the ride. Putting these back in, kid tells me " I think it's time for some new ones" Nah, I can get another season out of them.
