The LAWL Team Build Thread!

That legal team is, uh, makes quite an impression! Glad they’re behind you. Those are the kinda folks you want on your side in the bar-fight.
Don’t get cocky tho...

 

I laughed my ass off reading all of the info they put together for my "case"!! There must have been 25-30 pages of the funniest stuff you'll ever read: depositions, interviews, arguments,... It goes on and on! It is the funniest collection of material on TacoWorld I've ever seen!

Matt, Bob, and Creed are Top Notch people in my book! And some funny fuckers!

 

The whole thing, as a complete package, was a collapse into utter chaos, confusion, pure phkn comedic bliss, then one shitty chapter, and then what happened after that was pure TW gold!!! By far my greatest night here.
This will go down in TW history!
Memorial Day 2020!! Never forget!

 

I will never forget the Tiger Fiesta and Hobbs Riots! That was sooo damn funny I almost pissed myself! And then everything went black. I am so appreciative for the actions of @McRib @StayinStock and @six5creed for keeping the ball rolling! What a great comedy event! It went for days and I loved (almost) every minute of it! I keep going back and reviewing, and I find new stuff to laugh at each time!

 

Linky?

 

I think McRib is gonna compile the whole works, or at least build a link index. I seriously hope he does!

 

We laughed, we cried, we leaned on one another when needed; but in the end we prevailed! Kinda!

 

You absolutely prevailed!!!

Welp, in June of 2016 I added a Leer 180 top. I optioned Windoors for both sides (which I love!), a drop down slider in front, and universal roof rails. I fitted up Yakima SkyLine bars and someday plan to install a basket for occasional use when I'm on Safari. I also installed an Off-Grid Engineering auxiliary battery bracket with a group 24 Delco battery.







The Off-Grid Engineering auxiliary battery bracket is pretty solid. I like having the extra battery and I chose to utilize a group 24 so it is interchangeable with the stock battery. I did not wire the battery to the truck's electrical system. It is stand alone and only the winch and 20" Rigid light bar are wired in. I charge the battery every 2-3 months, or in the event that I use one of those two items. I primarily use the battery for charging different devices' batteries (radios, detector batteries, etc.). I also carry a NOCO GB-150 jumper pack as a back-up to the back-up.

Welp, long about June of 2016 I bucked up and got Quickie a set of RCI aluminum skids. I got the engine, transmission, and transfer skids and installed them up. I have bashed them pretty good a few times and they are showing it. I contemplated the aluminum vs steel decision and opted for aluminum to save a bit of weight. I added the fuel skid perhaps six months later. I also contemplated the exhaust crossover reroute. I took it to a local exhaust shop and talked to a gentleman that said he could do it with a little trial and error. He was honest and said it would take maybe two or three attempts to get it "clean" and he wouldn't charge me for each and every attempt. I never did schedule to have it done and the exhaust is still stock.

I also installed a VooDoo Remote Start system but I have no pictures of that.

This is the life! Love it! Looks cozy!

 

It IS the life! Although, we almost froze our asses off that night when temp's dipped into the teens.

It's all part of the adventure!!!

Welp, in May/June of 2017 I joined up in a Group Buy on Southern Style Off-Road's SlimLine front bumper. I scored a pretty good deal on it and optioned a Rigid Industries 20" LED lightbar to go with it. I also purchased Smittybilt's X20 10K synthetic line winch. I figured that it would make sense to mount it all up at ounce. And I did. I also sourced a Cascadia 4x4's Flipster license plate bracket. I modified it a bit to tuck it in tight to the bumper.
