Alabama thread!

im up for another meet. right now im working mon-fri. so any weekend is good for me. But things could change...

 

Isn't that the last thing we had planned? Other then the future cab swap of course.

Don't forget the dif fluid.

 

anyone know where i could access installation hardware for a second gen roof rack? i need just 2 bolts and some mastic washers. called fastenal and they dont carry instore the correct size and i would have to order a box of 100 for them to get any in. they are metric button head and metric wafer head bolts.

 

Get caught in what? Things were slow here, and that is why I took a couple of days off at the shop. lol. So there!

Yes, the tie rod is the last thing. I just finished getting it in. All I have to do is set the toe and I can start her up and check how everything else is. I know there will be some more bleeding of the brakes and maybe some on the clutch. I am fighting a cold right now, so I am doing things as I can. I haven't had a customer come into the shop for anything since last Friday. Hopefully things will pick up next week after the new year. I'm not getting rich, but at least I am still keeping the lights on. I know we have been joking around and all on this thread, but to be real, things have been pretty tight here. I haven't drawn a paycheck since October 1st. Still, overall I am not too bad off. After my first full year I am only about $16k in debt. For a company like mine, that's not too bad.

 

It should pick back up after new years. Everyone is just to drunk to care about their cars.

 

^^^^^ which can produce work on its own. You do bodywork? lol.

 

Got the allpro on, still gotta get the winch on (saving that for my south carolina trip to wheel with 01Tac0ma.) and get the skid on when it arrives.

^^^Looks great man!

 

What were you spray painting???? lol

 

Take a look at Lowe's, they have a ton of hardware.

 

Thanks Dave!

......stuffffff

 

Lol ok. Bout time you got a bumper. Sheesh 4x4 conversion next right?!?!?!

 

I do believe I just saw the mustache....

 

Haha you ain't kidding! Its gonna be the next big thing. Gknn lock and regear and maybe get UCA's during tax time. I have someone that may have me a wrecked truck with all the 4x4 stuff along with a 5spd

 

Not easier / cheaper just to swap all your shit over to a 4x4?

 

Then you will have a 1st gen dc 4x4 5spd swap! like this guy

Well since my truck is paid for, I can get this wrecked truck that was rolled for less than a grand. I think it would be the best route.

 

Is there a way to use the e-locker on a 2nd gen in 2wd? I have tried searching but can't find the thread. I thought there was one on here.

 

Hey guys, if and when you happen to stop by any pick a part yards, keep an eye out for a 95 - 97 extendedcab for me please. I wasn't able to find one durring my search today, unfortunately.
