    Put a 3 point hitch on it, and I know a guy that has a few farm implements that could work!

    There’s a guy who could probably make a proper hitch for it to haul those farm implements…

    Forest green metallic. To match the real car. It won't be an exact replica, but it'll be real close

    Maintenance is done in Bluey... :bananadead:

    In case you guys don't want to see all of this, I'm gonna put it in a spoiler. I know it's "shop talk" but I can be picture heavy sometimes. I also never post any of my stuff to be a braggart, it's always been "this is cool my dudes, look!"

    Anyways...

    Gotta start out all sketchy like. I need to pick up two sets of 3 ton stands, but the ramps and my 2-tons worked for this.

    [​IMG]

    Drained the transmission. Plug actually came out with only banging my arm on the exhaust once... Was pretty nasty, but the drain plug was actually not that bad!

    [​IMG]

    The fluid though... :puke:

    [​IMG]

    Was kinda interesting to get a funnel in the fill/dipstick. Had to finagle around the intercooler, but made it work.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    This is one of the oddest things I've seen is an actual dipstick for the manual transmission/differential. Pretty cool though.

    [​IMG]

    Next the rear diff, fill and drain plugs were tight, but didn't put up too much of a fight. Someone has definitely been in here before.

    [​IMG]

    Magnetic drain plug wasn't bad either.

    [​IMG]

    Fluid has been changed at some point in its life luckily.

    [​IMG]

    Last decided to do the oil change while I had everything "lifted". Put on the correct, made in Japan filter.

    [​IMG]

    Different view of the sketchiness :rofl:

    [​IMG]



    Thanks for watching!

    So, not sure if you all remember, but I was having trouble with groundhogs digging at the left corner of my shed. Got to the point where the 4x4 was getting no support. Well a couple months ago they did it again so I shoved 150lbs worth of concrete in the hole it dug.

    Well, the little bugger returned last night and hit attempt was foiled! :yes:

    Appreciate it!

    The first couple days it really kicked my ass, now I just can't kick a wicked headache.
