XPOTRPR build & BS

the youtube man, its just numbers right haha I'm hoping its pretty st8 forward

 

see! "hope" is not something I want to think before buying something that important. hahaha

 

well tor and madtaco said it was pretty easy and kirkrio is using it now, and there are gonna be like 5 of us with it soon, surely someone knows what they are doing and we can plagiarize off them

 

sounds like a plan to me! lol

 

So, took the truck to the Trans shop, 202 Transmissions, and talked with Ron. Good guy for sure and very knowledgeable. He actually turned away the business because he did no want to take my money. He felt it was unnecessary to do the work. He believes if anything, its the Valve Body, more specifically, the solenoids or springs. Even though that would normally throw a code. We took it for a drive, he performed some tests and offered to do an additive for the trans, but since he wasnt sure it would fix the issue (as he didnt feel anything out of the ordinary during the drive) he didnt want to take my money.

So, with a clean bill of health, I am going to try and stop being picky about it. If it shows itself more than it does now (which after today, it might all be in my head) then I will contact IPT and really get into the details with them. Replace the solenoids and or springs and go from there. But, as of now, it doesnt affect the performance, so I will hold off.

 

Need a link to that torque converter man!

Plow that slid off the road and got stuck.. I was just cruisin..

 

Hey man, When you painted your cluster rings....Did they just pop off?? Or did you have to take that dash panel off and get behind there and unclip them?

Thank you man, pics are awesome as usual!!!

 

Looks like a lot of cocain fun ! Let's kick it this week

 

Thanks my dude!

You need to pop the dash apart. Ill see if I can find the writeup. It's easy though! Couple clips and plastic screws, then you pop the rings out from the backside.

TONS! Lol was a good time. Wanted to do some snow wheeling, but just didn't have the opportunity.

And yes, for sure.. Im actually partaking as we speak.. Took today off.

 

Right on, Ive actually got the write up. No worries there!

Just wondering if it was actually needed lol

Ive heard some guys say they just pop right off...

 

Maybe! They're just clipped in. But I didnt want to risk breaking those clips. I popped em off with a flat head from the backside.

 

Refilled the Airtank and picked up a Trasharoo from Sierra yesterday.




Got my poster in. Need a frame and still figuring out where it belongs. Somewhere in the office, or in the garage...

 

The Thing is such a good movie!

 

My favorite movie ever.

 

Registration is paid... trying for a new plate as well. waiting to hear back if its approved or not.

 

How much is a year out here?

 

I think I paid $120 for my '09 back in 2015 before I traded it in

 

I need to change residency. Every pick up in California has to be registered as a "commercial vehicle" and then is taxed based on its weight.
