Valon's 01 turd

Is that a built in inclinometer?! That's badass but how are you supposed to see it from the inside?

 

^lulz

 

You two are funny It's so you guys can tell me when i'm about to go end over end when doing something insane haha

By the way. Either of you free to wheel tomorrow? I need a heads up so I can weld my skid on to get by...yeah...it'd be pretty jenky but as long as it works right?

 

I have a final from 1-3. Morning time I will be studying. Afterwards its a maybe...I have two pairs of headlights to attend to before the eventful weekend of moving back to the sticks.

 

You gonna add any plate onto the bumper? Interested in what it might look like.

 

Going to soon. Here is what it looks like right now.



Had to paint the stinger yellow



The center will have a plate but the sides will stay plain. Adding shackle mounts to the crossmember as well.

Been busy working so I haven't had as much time as I hoped to work on the bumper. Axle seal blew out and the plastic tray in my tool box broke from the weight of my tools. replaced seal and make a heavy duty metal tray and re carpeted the inside of my box while I was at it.







And looky what I got...



AUSSIE LOCKER!!!!

eventually it will go in when I have a day or two off in a row.

 

Hey I ran into a friend of yours the other day. He drives a white STI cool guy ....... its a small world lol.

 

Any updates on the build?

 

Yeah he was telling me, fucking random haha.

Well... No pics right now. But so far the front bumper is done, might be scoring a winch for free in the next month And I might have gotten a little inspired by your build and bobbed the bed I am waiting on my roommate to get his CO2 tank up from his parents so I can finish it though. also going to be putting my aussie in this week so I can go wheeling next weekend.

Eventually I'll post up a crap ton of pics.

 

Teaser shots of what to come when I have some time to put lots of pics up. Got my aussie in up front. Holy fuck being locked front and rear will take you anywhere. Also looking for 4.88 e locker rear diff if someone knows of anyone selling one for a decent price.

 

Looks fun.

 

So jelly :-(

 

used your (my) sliders today -

yup, hit the sliders nice and hard coming off this rock in the parking lot . Thanks man, held up perfect.







now back to your build...

and 110 foot drop is one thing tacos don't survive very well. Have drivetrain and axles for parts when I get another one at least. But for now my sexy beast is no more.

 

Nice build man

 

Oh shit!

You ok? What the hell happened exactly?

 

Hey just called ya. Hope u r ok. So I guess u r not gonna want to go wheelin on Sunday like u asked

 

Holy shit, missed this post where you in the truck?

 

I'm good for the most part. got ejected on the way down. Took a turn on a dirt road too fast for my shitty summer tires to handle and wasn't able to keep myself on flat ground. went over the edge and rolled all the way down

 

Holy crap! That's nuts. You are one lucky dude. Glad you're ok (for the most part). Sorry about the truck but that can be replaced.
