Wheelerkr2's Build

Nice build man. I thought you maybe the only person that would appreciate one of my pictures:



GO HOKIES!!!

 

Did the fog light anytime mod, did it the easy way. In the process I found out that one of my $5 Amazon foglight bulbs had burned out, glad I kept the stock bulbs.



Wiring:

 

Hell yeah! thanks man, you go to school here?

 

Nope, just every home game. My wife went there.

Moved my ultraguage from the suction cup mount on the windshield to the dash using a piece of flexible metal and 3m tape that came with an iphone holder I no longer use.



Also got some interior LED's from a buddy who had extras from his 4runner



they look a little blue/purple in the pic but are actually white

 

Got a farm jack brand new at a garage sale for $10, made some bed mounts for it.

Went on a trip to Potts on saturday with the Sinking Creek 4 Wheel Drive Association (4x4 club at Virginia Tech). It was wet and slick and I had to get winched a few times but it was a good time and I got to test out my new sliders and tires. I learned that I really need skids so thats the next mod on the list, I destroyed the paper thin factory skid.

 

more pics from Potts

 

Had a whine from the engine for about half a year now, changed serpentine belt and it didn't go away. The other day it got worse and after some inspecting, i found out i had some bad idler pulleys. Changed the top 2 pulleys and the whine is gone!

Going on a trip to an offroad park in Harlan this weekend with the offroad club from my school. Should be pretty nice with a bunch of different trails to explore.

 

Harlan Kentucky was a great time. Rained thursday so the trails were sloppy all weekend.
