Superbads Boring Build and not Enough Exploring

Yeah I can deal with shitty co-workers. Its pretty easy to just mind my own business and stay out of others drama. I barely talk to the people I work with but so far the ones i have talked with some seem like decent people. One of the potential highlights of the job is the possibility of working from home where ever I want that to be and really never see or have to deal with shitty co-workers. My main focus right now is to make myself look good and see what kind of promotions and opportunity's I can grab, like working from home. I found out if I live more than 60 miles away from the office working from home is a possibility. I badly want to move west, maybe NW in a few years. I miss that part of the country. Just need to get enough money saved and have work arranged to make the transition easier. My goal is to finally buy a house if not when I move or within a yr of finding the right location.

 

@n0troublen0fuss you get your new wheels yet? I'm getting really sad I had to back out of the preorder.

 

Na, limited finishes he still hasn't got yet. Supposed to be some time this March but he hasn't gave any updates lately so who knows. Pretty sure the IG crowd has been bombarding him with BS so any time anything gets posted it's usually just bitching. Guess it sucks being popular and making gobs of money.

 

that sucks. Maybe I should ask to be included again since I was in on the limited finish. I doubt he'd go for it and probably be a bad choice for me since I'm still tight on money. First paycheck is tomorrow though! That and besides catching up from being laid off i have alot of things that are more important to buy like quality ditch lights that dont leak, new suspension, front bumper, gears and a dog crate that costs way too much money. Blaze destroyed the base to his crate monday and so I had to buy him another cheap one since he cant be trusted free and still has accidents so a solid bottom is a must. Up to $150 in crates for him in 6 months and thats still only a fraction of the cost of his next crate. I've been tempted to switch his crate with Teq's since Teq seems to have calmed down and might not break free but I cant bring myself to do it. I've worked hard to make sure the dogs know not to enter the others crate so they have their own space to get away from each other if one doesnt feel like playing. I dont want to risk Teq losing his puppy free space.

 

Worth a shot but I doubt it. I really don't need new wheels just wanted to eventually move up tire size but alot needs to happen before that. Truck stuff has been on hault since before Christmas saving for wedding crap coming up in April. It hurts. Need to fix some front end issues before it's even Jambo bypass ready but I'll be there regardless. Designated drinker!

 

I still havent made any repairs from jambo last year. I did pick up some fender flares over the weekend that will get installed some day but I need some things before that can happen.

 

Mornin Jason, have a great day my dude.

 

Mornin Chad, you have a great day too sir!

 

Many thanks! Should be all downhill after today

​

 

Hopefully! Im just ready for a decent weekend to get out camping. Havent been feeling it in this cold wet weather.

 

Where you looking to go?

 

Something clownish. Maybe lbj national grasslands north of FW or Broken Bow, OK. OK Broken has a bunch of fire roads to explore and some decent camping from what I've heard and read.

 

Sounds fun!

 

I need new ditch lights because my current @CaliRaisedLed ones are leaking in under a 1 year. So now I'm trying to decide on my lighting setup for ditch, 40" roof and 20" bumper. I'm plan to go with higher quality lights and slowly buy them over time but ditch lights need to come first then roof and then replace my heise 20" bumper light when I have spare money and theres not something I want more. I like matching things though so sticking with 1 brand will keep me happier even if my wallet isnt. The hard part is what light pattern to get and what do I go clear or amber. Do I go all clear, all amber or a mix of both.

Ditch lights I'm thinking a combo spot/flood beam setup with either BD S2's or squadron sports. I wonder if the S2's will give me enough light or if the squadrons are the better choice. Will I miss the extra light produced by the side shooters? They are slightly annoying since I put the CB antenna on a ditch light bracket extension.

40" Roof will be a single row bar. Likely a pure spot since I'll only use it when I'm solo or leading a group. I may go lower cost here since its use will be so limited.

Then for the 20" single row bumper light I'm thinking stick with a combo spot/flood.

I might even go ahead and replace my stock fogs with a set of squadrons of an undecided beam pattern. They will likely be a combo spot/flood beam.
The goal is to have a very versatile and useful light setup for all conditions and travel speed.

Opinions and input are welcome.

 

Well 55k on the truck and the rear drums need work. Dash lit up like a Christmas tree on my way to work. Have a tow truck coming to get it to a shop for repair...

 

Damn, what's going on there?

 

Dam!!! This sucks

 

Drum seal looks to have busted

 

Is this something common at around 50k miles. Mine is a 2017 model also.

 

Damn that is crazy man!
