The Lair

Are you familiar w/ diffs? I've never done before so I was planning on taking a a few days off work to slide down to MD to work on it. I miss my S10! My first vehicle was an S10 my dad handed me the keys when I graduate high school and said congratulations you graduated high school by the way it's a 5-speed never drove one before in my life LOL

 

I'm not even a little familiar! So hopefully I can put this winch back together when it's all said and done.

 

I'm trying to figure out how to keep up with @EatSleepTacos but I'm afraid he's left me in the dust

But seriously.. I gotta get my suspension replaced and maybe a nice roof rack like OP's.

My last accident was on the mass pike a couple of years ago. I had the family in the Subaru..including the dog. Traffic was coming to a crawl and took a peak at my rear view mirror. I thought that person driving behind me was going to hit me.. I ended up rear ending someone. The front end was smashed, totaled and there was a huge windshield indentation from my big coconut. No one was hurt fortunately but the dog didn't talk to me for a week. Scary.

 

@EatSleepTacos have

My first truck was a 94 S10 black short bed 4.3l. I totaled it learning how to drive a manual. My S10 now is a 95 white long bed 5spd

 

Worth an ask lol

 

I'm going up gradually. Already have my CMC plates to go 33s on stock suspension

 

No @Sub-Zero has one

 

I have a center hoop bumper

 

Lmmfao!
My gf is getting that way!

 

@fatfurious2 Now I actually am considering your cap, or a contractor cap the same as yours I'm just paranoid now with all the shit I want to put on top of my cap if it'll be able to support it.

 

Bullshit! That's inspirational! I wanna go on a trail ride w/ TW bad but my truck still needs a few things first before it's trail ready like winch & fire extinguisher, etc. Good for private campsite trails but....

 

I've done a whole bunch of wheeling without a winch! And a fire extinguisher was like $20 at Home depot

 

Maybe he will let you test it out to see if you like it? What else do you want besides the tent?

 

That wouldn't be a bad idea at all. The contractor cap sits a little higher than mine, so I'd want to see how it is being that tall.

I want an awning, and maybe a DIY solar shower made of PVC which'll weigh around 30-40lbs when full, depending how large I make it.

EDIT: Plus i really like the windoors.

 

Awning doesn't weigh too much!
@Chux has his cap loaded up and doesn't seem to have any problems. But I get where you are coming from

 

Yeah it's only because I started reading various threads and now I'm paranoid!

 

Its all yours.. after my next purchase, ill be saving for the bedrack. Might be ordering from BFF.. want to get a bumper in the next couple months?

 

Guess what shipped @EatSleepTacos ..

 

You're getting rid of your bumper too?

 

Bout damn time!
