50cal's Build

Careful, it's really dusty and full of cobwebs in here.

Used to, haven't wheeled in a couple years other than copilot runs.

I wish I kept them, and a bunch of other parts.

 

haha what if one day i part out my truck, and you get your parts back lmao

 

Taco life goes full circle lol

 

if we wheel together one day, i'd consider that full circle too!

 

Haha, right!?

Damn, just realized I haven't actually wheeled with any of the "newer" guys, only been a guide/spotting copilot... which doesn't count.

 

hahaha how many of the old guys are left? I know there was a new wave of dudes but i'm still newer too lol

 

Also I think I have something in my truck for you from @HolyHandGrenade ??

 

There's only a few that still have Tacos, and of those, only a couple still use them.

Oh shit, I forgot about that! Text inbound.

 

You know, i'm really stoked on the new build that'll be in here one day lol

 

That schedule has definitely shifted to the right .

Keep going though motivation droughts and won't touch it for weeks. Heading back out tonight to get the rear pulled though, really need to get the diff's sent out to ECGS.

I'll get it road worthy, break in the new clutch and gears, then head to the dealer for inspection. After the frame swap, the SC will get installed .

 

then a build thread? Can you at least snapchat or text me photo progress? lol

Also, how are the pups?!

 

My build thread is on a white board in the garage lol, maybe I'll transfer it over one day. I'll send you a few pics while I'm out playing around tonight .

Pups are doing good, Kohda (turned 14 in Nov) is still getting around but his hips are slowly getting worse; good days and bad days. Luna (turned 2 in Nov) hasn't calmed down at all, she's got so much energy, it's ridiculous lol.

Still making the trip out this weekend? Should be a fun trip except Sunday night.... lowest temp I've camped in was 18*, still had a great time.

 

send them! and i'm glad to hear Kohda is still going well! Luna was a nut last time I saw her, but a sweet nut haha

I don't think we're making the trip, The email we got about being on unmaintained roads stressed Kaila out a bunch, plus the rain Saturday night into Sunday morning would be terrible for packing everything up. I want to get out still and map the route I made, but the other truck bailed on that plan since we aren't camping. Worst comes to worst we'll go to our cabin and let Renley run around and have a fire. Ya'll are always welcome there btw! I'm sure Luna would love the 10+ acres of land we have!

 

So it's been a couple years, how's it going??

 

Slow as ever. Frame insp next month

Bought in April of 2017... I've put 700 miles on it since then. 500-ish of that was for the gear/clutch break in lol

Most recent pic - looks like every other swinging dick on here

 

looks good! And it’s YOUR swinging dick lol

stoked to hit up Rausch with you finally. I think my truck (with the exception of some clearancing) is dialed for greens and maybe even blues at Rausch. I’ve done a decent mount of blues but I’ll feel better when I have a winch lol
