Anything welding

Tig aluminum is soo hard! I felt like I couldn’t move fast enough but then turn it down just a bit and its like puddless

 

Crusty MF lower ball joint bolts

 

After all these years All the processes seem pretty much all the same .

 

My Nasty Bitch Cost me a 1/4 Million till it was all finished Some of us no longer care for them.

 

Yikes!

 

You know you're loyal to Toyota when you rig out a tundra lmao. I need a flatbed dodge but don't want shop bills.

 

Ally is a nasty bitch.
Be the puddle...lmao

 

I'm one of those people who Toyota could really make money off of if they would just come out with a 1 ton. I'd never recommend a tundra for a welding rig but I just can't spend money on another brand when I know Ima have issues with it lol

 

I think they would have more sales then they project

Maybe Diesel as well

 

You guys need to find one of the dually 1-tons they made in the 1980s.

 

Most of those in this neck of the woods have been recycled years ago

 

What issues do you expect?

We didn’t have any issues with our 2011 3500 (cab and chassis, Aisin trans) until I totaled it, and we haven’t had any issues other than emissions BS (which is about to get deleted) with our 2013.

2011 pre and post “incident”


And the 2013

 

Any emissions or EGR problems are enough for me to stay away. I don't wanna buy a truck knowing I have to "fix it" right off the bat.


And just typical big truck problems. Usually have steering issues. Usually go through a trans or two. Usually have turbo/injector problems. Etc etc.

I have seen too many issues between family and close friends trucks to not get a domestic one ton until I 100000% need one.

People say "it's only been in the shop a couple times" when I want it in the shop 0 times lol. I'll stick with my toyotas as long as I can.

 

Built this sucker and installed it yesterday:

 

Looks Pretty Just what does it do ??

 

I Was welding 400A on 3/8 alu on friday...

 

In theory: protection of rock strikes to the transfer case.

realistically: it looks cool.

 

I Haven't had hair on my nuckles in YEARS lol.

 

Managed to run a bit of decent bead on this 1/4" shock tower before running out of gas

 

Woooo!
