Anthony's 2010 banworthy access cab mostly BS not much of a build thread

OH SHIT! Steve be huntin her down now.

Soon you guys be related

 

Not much going on with the truck lately. Did some minor maintenance greased the driveshaft ujoints and anti seized the cam adjusters

2 years after first anti seizing them they are still in good shape. This is a must do for trucks in the salt belt.


I did the "boot slide" mod on the new CV i replaced after the front end carnage. Noticed the fins were already rubbing a bit, this should extend the life of the boot pretty well


Been focusing more on house mods and new toys for the house Picked up a new saw earlier this week, this thing kicks some ass


Had to put it to use, chopped down an out of place pine tree


Used the truck to make easy work of it

All chopped up


Branches loaded up to take to the local dump where they use them to grind up and make mulch


@cynicalrider stopped down to my place this week and we knocked some projects out at the BPF shop. Rewelded the sliders back onto his truck following frame replacement. We used some 1/2" thick plates to compensate for the tubing lost when they were cut off the frame from the last go around.


Burning em in


Think they turned out pretty good




And finally got the permits and everything squared away for the newest addition to the house, construction should start in about 3 weeks , 30x60x14' pole barn with a lean to on the side for porch drinking

 

I love everything about this.

 

Still welding in short sleeves i see.I got that that jacket and pants waiting to give to you.Let me know who is coming down to BPF next and ill try and get them to them for a hand off.
on the shop. awesome .

 

Big thanks to joe today I picked up a set of spare LCAs, an idler pulley and front diff. Now if I break that tube mount again I'll have a trail spare

 

I knew you would get that.

 

Yo Ant any idea on when I can borrow your skills?

 

I've been off all week and I go back tomorrow night so I'll shoot you my days off this weekend.

 

ok. I'll probably dead in the water for the next two weeks. Gotta get my third out this weekend and to a local guy so he can install the ARB but he just told me tonight that I'll need new carrier bearings cuz they get messed up when you take them off. So gotta order them from ECGS tomorrow. Hopefully have them some time next week then take all the shit to him.

 

Wow just wow that looks like it came from a Toyota that gave a shit about our trucks haha. Your build is fantastic man! Gotta ask why the body spacer? And you have balls jumping into a crawl box so soon haha

 

Main structure of the garage is done, just need to insulate and spread the stone and prep for concrete

 

thanks dood, thinking this should give me enough space for a little while anyhow

 

Great looking property! So much green

 

Woot!

 

Congrats looks awesome

 

Hey op, what wheels are those blue ones?? I would like some for my swb!

 

thats a hell of an update bud!

 

Dam. That's awesome!!

 

Did you have any issues getting the tube doors to fit? 4x website says it won't fit access cabs

 

Thanks man, appreciate it. The 1" body lift was to tuck the factory toyota transfer case up a bit more to keep it out of harms way. Yeah the truck only had 30k on it when the surgery began for that

Thanks Jerry, I'll have everyone over once it's all finished up and usable!

They are Mickey thompsons, the P/N is on the first page under the specs.

Indeed!

Thanks dood, been busting my ass every free minute to get prepped for concrete

No issues, bolted right up. The access cab doors are the same as the double cab so I don't see why they wouldn't fit

Stone is spread




And in case anyone was wondering, here's what $2000 of insulation looks like
