Manfred's #thicc boi aka 'White Rhino'

Looks awesome man! Now go beat on it!

 

i need to flex the rear to see if the brake lines will be a problem first haha

 

Yeah may want to test that out before being out in the trail.

 

Looks good! You going to trim the top of the u bolt flip soon?

 

I was questioning whether or not I should do that!! So that's a yes I should eh?

 

Yes you definitely should! Otherwise you'll be hitting u bolts instead of bump stop haha They don't need to be flush, but maybe 1/4" - 3/8" of thread showing.

 

Too easy! Before I take it away for alignment I'll knock those off

 

A tribute to the late Gord Downie
Happy Canada D'eh!

 

Lobbed those fuckers off. Took it for a run across town and was just the best. Rode so smooth. Felt like I was 2 extra meters in the air.

 

Fuck yeah!!

 

Got this shot today, can't stop staring... She's so purdy

What it is now vs what it was before

 

Too much lift...happened in parking garage in Halifax Nova Scotia.

 

Oh shit! Parking garages suck. I’m always so worried about scraping.

 

When we installed the lift we had about 1 3/4" leaving his garage so I thought I would be fine. Took it slow enough that I didn't damage the cap I just have to really replace that last cross member and straighten out the vertical members.

Might take the time to lower the whole thing to the roof instead of sitting on these little "bump stops". Will that fuck with my chi?

 

On the plus side... Soooon

 

White rhino hit another milestone today
They grow up so fast

 

Dropped in three SKF U270 U-Joints and a Western Star centre bearing Saturday.

Centre bearing has been squealing for a month and thought I might as well replace the u joints while I'm at it. Went to the HD ones because "buy once, cry once"

Grease your u joints every 5000 km (when you do your oil changes) this one only has about a 1/8" of play and you will save your u joints from this

The yolk was being a cunt, so....fire

FIRE

Old 's New. The flange needed a few washers to keep it from the top but working well


Ready to go in



Greased to Fuck....free undercoating

Done and done, probably too me 8 hours to do this all.

The end was prolonged by the rear axle U Joint when they have me a cap with broken needle bearings. Swapped out two of them for the older needle bearings and packed it. 3 times the bearing slipped out of line during install which had my friend and I swearing... a lot

Glad to be done.

 

Another camping trip.
Not too far into the trail but super secluded.


Living quarters with this bitch...
And the dog. all jokes a side I need to invest in some mosquito nets for the side doors



Fun fact. There are more bald eagles I'm Canada than America



The pupper 'Charlie' with her favourite toy that I got her for her 1st birthday. Like her Damn security blanket.



Came home to this so can't wait to try it out

 

Pulled the trigger. Finally got a dash cam for some trails and insurance fraud fuckers.
Pretty stoked.

 

I have the same one in my subie and I really like it. Did you check to see if the firmware was up to date? I had to update mine a few months after ownership because it was acting up.
