Idaho BS thread in the PNW

hes a MK1 with a bunch add ons

itll be a job and half swapping back and forth due to desoldering and resoldering

 

Why would he sell it??

 

cuz he hasnt been able to sell his truck, as on this side of the world, anything 2wd supercharged is going to be low balled to hell

any lifted truck sells like gold

the offer he got from the dealer today was pretty attrocious

 

Didn't know he was trying to sell it.

Well cool.

 

oh lol, i thought everyone knew

hes been actively been trying to sell for atleast 5 months, when he bought his Scion TC thats when he said he was selling, his main goal has been not to part out, but after a good chat and beer in person today I think he could be coaxed into it

 

Haha well good luck.

 

yup, welcome to the club. And prolly better than what monte is looking at.

 

Yes much better. Hardly anything. Kit pouring in rough the window..

 

Meant light..

And better. Finally doing shit that's not just dull. Making money money. Just bored and wish I had more free time to do something I liked. Even just one. Crossfit if I could. Miss that a lot.

Also. Sweet vid if the day.

When I try and get sponsored..I need to ET sponsored by red bull I guess haha

 

This is what I picture when I think about you in AK

 

That's pretty close actually. Camp is much nicer then that. Lucky for my Little Red the company has probably the best camp in prudoe or anywhere up here. We get our own bathrooms and have great cooks. But my room is made from 2/3s of a storage shipping container. It's well furnished sorta..but not bad. Could be much much worse.

 

You guys drink too many energy drinks. Red Bull has way to much money to spend. Have you seen what they are doing (and spending) in Formula One?

 

Did a ton of cleaning. He 3 shops we pulled out tons or parts and sorted and put back. By we I mean me and the other hand. Then anything from helping mechanics weld, working in big rigs to pump units to pickups. We do it all for the custom trucks up here. I usually get the shitty clean up jobs. But I got to help change a radiator which sucked. And tires today. 42" tall and 12" wide haha weight sooooo much haha

It's fun sometimes. Just 12-14 hours everyday s for 8 weeks is getting old..

I don't drink any energy drinks. Of coffee.

But red bull is huge I guess. F1 plus offroad racing..hell any extreme sport for that matter.

Ill be the first red ill expedition trail truck! (I wish)

 

Come over for a visit. I haz internet

 

Went out riding today. Right out the gate managed to fucking lawn dart myself into the up hill side of the landing to this Jump I was trying. You jump up the first hill, gap the trail then land up hill of the next little hill. Apparently 2nd topped out wasn't good enough because I just plow my front end into the ground and eat it. Fucked up the insides of both knees and my right side hip is sore as shit lol. Certainly bruised bad, can't hardly lay on it. Also from projectiling into the hill I messed up the front brake fittin which drained all the fluid...so no front brakes. But fuck it, we came all the way out there in riding.

So I bend back the hand guards and we head out for a trail ride and my buddy in the bike who is leading decides to take us on one of our tight single tracks that the freaking quads can't fit on, so shortly after aleks rips the dam side wall on his front tire. Fucked. They try to buy a patch kit and it doesent work well. So we just played around by the tuck for a while till we were tired of swapping bikes and quads an doing donuts and hitting whoop sections and jumping off stupid shit.

And that was my day lol.

Tomorrow I get to work till 2, hopefully fix my truck, the. Fix my bike I fucked up, then go get more truck parts to sell and get my rack from my buddy.


Anyone know how to remove the rear window on the x cabs?

 

what did u do to your truck now???

 

I have to replace the pinion seal...and the stupid thing is humming. At least I think it's the diff. Something Hums over 30 when I hit the gas.

So un helpful. I don't think the buyer wants a box full of sharp glass shards.

 

Of course I do.

The very rear window with the sliders? Or the rear side windows?

Rear side you have t pull off the inner interior rear panel. Bit of a bitch as the seat belt will hold it in place. There are 4 10mm bolts I believe under the panel holding down the hinges. Then the pop out joint just has one bolt.

The very rear window is so,ething different it's help it purely with a gasket. It's sucks getting out and even more putting it in
