Dakota's Yota Build (Long Travel, Chevy 63s, and BS)

Because procrastination

 

I did that for my trip I just did, but on;y because I had no other option. I hated being rushed to get everything done in time

 

Lol I did get the exhaust rattle fixed!
I'm thinking I don't feel like painting the sliders and skids... Just let Moab scrap the rust off lol

Thanks buddy! Yeah leaving Monday morning. 99% sure we're trailer ing the taco though, gonna go look at a new trailer today. I'm not sure where we're camping. Last time was in Brigham city, UT but we were in the taco that time. We have our first night in the hotel reserved for the 31st so we have to make the drive in 2 days. Was planning on getting into Moab early afternoon checking in and screwing around in the taco. I don't mind a convoy but we kinda just drive hard the first day to Utah.

You get enough miles on those diffs already?

 

230 currently

 

So I swapped the factory locker switch down by the ARBs. I don't have any switch blanks for the switch panel, and I want to do it right. So that's happening after Moab. For now my KCs are hooked up again and hanging out in the ashtray.

I also re glammed my spindles


Need to rack up 200 miles still... By tomorrow lol

 

Come over to my house tonight lol

 

Break in period for the diffs?

 

Yeah. Luckily he's towing his truck down to Moab so he's fine

 

Currently....

Woke up and drove up to Roslyn, had breakfast, and drove back home. Barely cleared 500 lol

 

Now how the hell do I mount my Plano case on my rack? Are people just bungee them down?

 

Don't know, but you better lock it down. I hear people like to steal them.

 

I've been wanting a plano... hey dakota where ya campin?

Have fun and be safe out there! Lookin forward to the photos and trip reports!

 

Yeah I've heard.

This thing is badass!

Probably in Brigham City, Ut first night. We have a hotel for Moab.

 

Hell yeah! nice and organized. Did you get it off Amazon? and was the handle pictured red, black, or yellow? seems like it's random.

 

Right!
And yes I did. Handle was yellow like in picture.

I'm pulling my hair out right now. Can't figure out how to mount it at all! Do you remember seeing anyone do it? I can only find pictures with no obvious tie downs on them. I still got so much shit to do lol....

 

Responds on TW but doesn't respond to messenger....

But I guess I'll resub because I love you

 

<3

 

No place to tie down...
