A lesson in adversity, resilience, and discipline

Where do you even learn about this stuff? Too cool. Hope it works out for you.

 

I just noticed that it has been done by linking that. Not like I'm out there with a tape measure and protractor lol

 

Endless amounts of research and calling people asking questions

 

To order that one you posted you are correct
It's a direct bolt in.

It just doesn't work with my build

 

I get it. He mentioned something about links in the first or second post, so I figured it would work. Bolt on or not.
It's your truck so do whatcha want. Even if it just to park at car shows

 

Parking at car shows has done more to educate people and help the local veteran community I work with than anything else I have done with it lately (before it broke)

If I had guys that wanted to go wheeling for stress relief or to such I would take them but so far most of these guys just like camping and fast drives on logging roads.

Which kinda suits me because I'd rather drive fast than take 18 gallons of gas to drive 5 miles on a trail that's been destroyed by ATV's

And when the emergency situations come in play the truck can get where it needs to go (before it broke)

For me this isn't your standard trail rig
It's about helping fellow service members and veterans in their day to day drama and stress and giving them a break so I don't have to go bail them out of some dire situation and going to car shows as boring as it is allows me to educate people and bring attention to the problems our vets deal with

 

Alright
8-12 days til delivery
Anyone willing to say some prayers I would appreciate it
I am super nervous about the whole transport situation but it's gotta get done

 

Nah, hes just getting set up to jump that heep!!

 

You going out there with the truck this time again?
I don't like how precarious it hangs near the edge. Prayin fo sho!

heap has bigger tars

 

Yeah there are two identical heeps on that trailer (black and white)
Look like a boyfriend and boyfriend build

And yeah they are both on 37's

And the guy in front of me had his spare on the back that didn't fit so we had to dismount it and set it in the bed of my truck.
I am also not a fan of it being so close to the edge and not even sitting on more than a extended platform held by a hinge.
Hence my request for prayers

They take 8-12 days because they will unload and load vehicles along the route to the destination so it's a lot of time that leaves me nervous wondering if everything is good.

And yes I will be flying out to go help work on my truck in about 10 days or so

 

UPDATE May 16 2018
Truck has arrived in California
there were some issues with the transport company's driver using my tools without permission, storing other customers property inside my vehicle and unloading my truck 5 blocks from the drop of address and then refusing to take the vehicle to where it was supposed to be delivered which was entirely Semi truck accessible.
BUT the truck is now sitting at the shop safe and sound, no damage to the truck that i am aware of since im not there yet to look over it myself, but otherwise all seems well. Now just gotta book a flight and get out there and get to work getting shit done.

 

Got my new shocks cerakoted so they don’t get destroyed by road grime or off-roading
