Dylans 02 Impulse Red build

I'm in Vienna right now Jake.

 

This place might be prettier (ha! Gayyyyy!) than London. When I was in London it was about 6 years ago

 

Nice man. I'll be in Budapest in 2 days then Paris next Thursday.

 

I'll be on 35s open/open and I'll throw mine at nearly anything gulches has this next go around.

 

Did you not get eddys rear locker?

 

Na lol I'm just gonna put a arb in the rear unless I can find a good deal on a e-locker. Then I'll regear then I have other plans

 

Just get the air locker

 

I probably will then I'll have a stronger axle and locker

 

How did you fit 35s with a 3 inch?

 

With lots of cutting

 

Wait your selling a rear arb? Where?

 

No he ain't lol I'll be buying one from ecgs before to long. I was going to buy a elocker from him but decided to go a diff route.

 

Saw your truck today on the square, looks so good on 35's

 

Just now saw this, you should have stopped by! My grandparents own that whole corner there. Silvers realty is my grandparents then silver shears is my aunt.

 

Went to uwharrie yesterday to do a little wheeling, only rode wolf den and dickey bell. Dickey bell was probably the hardest thing I've done.

Flexing out on wolf den. NEED MOAR FLEX!!!!


Found out I still have a little more trimming to do in the rear but i figured as much.






Me at the top of dickie bell




After all this I had seen a SAS tacoma in the field across from the outpost and decided to stop and see what was going on. Well after about 20 min went by it was time to leave and head to one of my classes. I went to get in my truck and nothing, wouldn't even turn over. We weren't sure if it was the battery or the starter until about 15 min later when my radio lights and everything else stopped working.

I called one of my buddies to see if he could bring me a battery as no one else would deliver to me. I began talking with these guys and found out it was some new overland forum.

Hiluxs, unimog campers, tacomas with rtts and flip pacs began pulling in along with some jeeps pulling trailers. After shooting the bull with these guys for about a hour my buddy arrived. We put the battery in and drove over to the out post where i was going to give him some cash and fill up his 4runner for him. As I walked over to the atm I noticed a rather large sign that read INTERSTATE BATTERY.. I started to get pissed but I had such good time with these overland guys I just went back over there and shot shit with them for about another hour.

Turns out Optima is turning into a shit battery and is renowned for when being shook a lot or jolted (off roading) splits something inside the battery according to the overland guys.

 

You're lucky they just put a cell tower in there. You used to not have service at all at Uwharrie.



PS Dickey Bell is easy

Did you stay to the far right or the far left on the hill?

 

Awh I would have then! Thought you may have been walking around for the festival..

I've had my redtop for about 2 1/2 years now (kept it from my last tacoma ) I charge mine before every winter and spring..I've had pretty good luck with mine so far. Doesnt seem to have the cranking power it did at first. I've heard that same thing before. Apparently they've move production to Mexico and thats where they went downhill. Not sure if thats true or not but, wouldnt be surprised. Look into a die hard deep cycle. Lots of ppl on here seem to like them. Probably get one when my redtop craps out

 

Not when your open/open lol I stayed left all the way up.

Plus I was spotting myself which made it rather interesting

Yeah that's what they were telling me. Auto zone replaced mine for free so if this one craps out on me again I'll be going to a diehard.

 

Small update:

Did a power steering pump flush today and now my pump wines less, but it's still there.

Also went and picked these up today, will be installed next Thursday when I get time to get to my buddy's and weld up some brackets.
