209 TACOS - B/S and shenanigans

Still have to grout in the morning... but hall bath tile is officially done.



Concrete countertops and cabinet refacing next

 

Needed to get a tcase skid to complete my trilogy.
My current sliders are compromised and being replaced by some bamf beef.

 

Hopefully I get my shocks back next weekend so I can put my truck back together. Going to have to wait to commit for Sunday based on my work schedule

 

Everyone got quite about Sunday... who's in for a Sunday drive.

8:00 meet up in Oakdale, then 9:00 meet up in Sonora.

 

I'm a slight maybe. I need to do my ECGS bushing. I've been putting it off and when I was under the truck putting the bumper on, I grabbed the driver's CV and have ~1/4" play at the diff. I'm going to tear into it Fri night/Sat, so I should be good to go. I have all the stuff, just been waiting for better weather.

 

I got plans already both days but I would like to go with people from this group at some point

 

Anyone else want to do a Sunday drive?

I’m busy Sunday, but curious where you’re headed?

 

456s in the rear now. Going to be working on the front tomorrow.

 

Did you re-gear it yourself or did you buy already built 3rds ? Lockers ?

 

Up East of Sonora around 1N04 area. I'm hoping @Drtgrl can be a bit of a tour guide. I'm not super familiar with South of 3N01.

 

I went through ECGS, i sent them my third and front diff.

 

Did you go air lockers ?

 

I had rear ARB and added a front ARB.

 

I dont think anyone else was going to be there anyway, but we're 10 minutes behind. Be there soon

 

Is there an easy way to get to the ADD plug going to the front diff? This thing is a pain in the ass. Trying to unplug it and i know there are clips holding it together.

update: got the fuckin plug finally

 

You guys missed an adventure.



Great views
Washed out goat trails
Matt's trademark pinstripes
Getting stuck in the snow

Fucking radical day! I'm wanna go again!

There would be more pictures, but Jen lost her phone in the snow.

For the record... 1N01 is no joke coming from the Tuolumne side towards the Clavey.

 

Very cool! Glad to see you can make it all the way through. Last time I was out there it was not passable. Road was gone at one point.

 

It's almost gone again, at one point. lol

 

Had we been any wider they wouldn’t have been passable. Had a great time! Sucks Jen lost her phone though. I only took a few pictures but made sure to get one of you stuck
