    The other day I ripped my right front hub apart as it was noisy and clicking, cleaned it up and put it back together with some marine grease. Noise almost entirely gone. :woot:

    Took a couple pics, all gaskets were in great shape so I just put it back together.
    Fun little project.

    I would just knock on the door and ask if I could take pics, tell him about Tacomaworld, etc.

    But sometimes :spy: is fun too.

    This. And if he doesn't let you take pics, dispense your entire pocket of sand in his face. Then take your pictures.


    ...I'm assuming everyone has a pocket full of sand, right?

    It looks like it works due to the huge glass fenders.

    I wouldn't do front kick outs. Don't see the point.

    I don't have sliders and really haven't seen a kickout in action before, but I agree. Front kickout makes zero sense unless you're tackling tough trails in reverse half the time...

    Yea you'd end up getting snagged on it. It's better to have sliders that start even or just past with the door and flare out as it goes. Why I like the BAMF sliders. Flares the whole length plus massive kick out. Lockouts are great to pivot off trees and rocks with the kick out. Very handy. Have done it lots.

    There was a local member selling BAMF sliders here a few years ago. I almost bought them but had to repair an axle seal and other stuff instead. Wish I would have just bought them.

    Thanks for the input guys, I really appreciate it!

    Would something like this be a better design? Should I hold off on the square tubing and just go with round instead?

    Round tubing would be stronger since it would be only two main pieces. But yea that's a better design.

    I would go with the round tubing although it might be tricky to bend it would totally be worth it.

    Well last night at my welding class we had some extra time so I started on my bumper! :woot:

    So far just cut out the lower recovery mount tabs from some thick scrap steel. I then cleaned them up and angled the edges I will be welding for better penetration.

    Band saw pic!

    I finally got around to changing my transmission fluid and had enough to change my transfer case fluid as well. Glad I used Redline (fully synthetic GL-4
    $29 75W-90 Synthetic Gear Lube - 1 Quart (Pack of 2)
    75W-90) as it is much easier to shift thru the gears in each (in the cold mornings at least)

    I need to do my transfer case soon. It shifts fine but I don't know when it was changed last.
