How the hell did you manage to bust the hard brake line?

 

I noticed that pic when you posted all your pictures the other day. Didn't know if it was a sore subject and didn't want to talk about it! haha

 

I have a Stormtrooper shift knob

 

Hey Rob, how was wheeling?

I figured you were still being secretive with your Tacoma.

 

Hmmmm might have to get one of those

 

He's probably got a Tundra V8 or something in there now.

On a side note, I just got another $11 @ Sears, so I spent another $1.04. So to date I have spent $2.71 and have gotten $26 in stuff. I don't get how this business model is sustainable, but I'm not complaining.

 

It's not; they've been upside down since I worked there back in 2007.

 

I was helping a friend find some info on the locomotives and ran across this @DoubleRGirl: http://wjbq.com/how-to-find-the-abandoned-100-year-old-locomotives-in-the-maine-woods/

 

IDK. It was right after this muddy obstacle





Checking out my next options. I went to the side and made it



Then the trail leader ***The Hunter*** (2 trucks ahead of me) heard squeaking/grinding and figured out it was my truck, I never even heard it (I'm really deaf!). So we pulled over at a somewhat flat section. Jacked up my truck and to clean the brake out and saw some fluid leaking and when we unbolted the caliper to clean it out the caliper wasn't even attached to the line anymore. It just came right off???



***Subway4X4*** did the same obstacle as me and made the 1st part look easy with his locker but got high centered in the ruts and needed to winch free. Once free he couldn't turn to follow what I did and went into another shitty section and needed to winch again







***fatfurious2*** tried it too but couldn't make it up





I did the obstacle to avoid this (we all know my history with deep standing water!)

No not sore about it at all. Shit happens. Especially when you bring you shit into the woods to beat on it!

Luckily for me ***NwiTACO*** had extra line and the cutting/bending/flaring tools needed to make a new line for me!

This was on "Topless for Tatas" right after the repair






Used *** instead of tagging people because I not trying to pick on anyone. Just telling what happened

 

Cool pics Rob! Maybe I should add brake lines to my wheelin' kit...

 

I love that obstacle on topless.

 

No but had I shown you guys my hoard of Dakar springs?

I can't watch the video while at work but Rebecca @DoubleRGirl Jason @Bruce988jl Cory @thepinktaco and I all did that trip last year

Yes you should because when Lloyd ***Subway4X4*** got home he found his was leaking. Same corner and everything

BTW most of those pictures aren't mine. They were courtesy of ***ProjectTgen3***

 

So, now you've got two complete sets, one old style, one new style.

It's an article that used several of Rebecca's instagram posts.

 

The old sets don't match. One original and one revised. New ones were the soft rides. I was waiting on the AAL's that ARB was sending me to make them into a set of HD's

Oh that's awesome!

 

hahah wtf they used my pics

 

Without permission, I'm assuming. Go get 'em!

 

they're from ig, i don't know if i actually own the rights to them

 

They do give you credit via IG

 

I think if it's a public profile anyone can use them as long as they are embedded, therefore linking back to your profile. I don't think someone could save the picture and post as their own

 

Ah, gotcha. The link doesn't even work on my computer here at the office.
