@Ay_arontrd’s you dun messed up 2wd to 4wd work truck build thread

Today I received some @ARCHIVE goods. Missing a few of the pieces to the puzzle before they get installed.

 

@ARCHIVE Ubolt flip kit and superbumps received today

 

You install them yet?

 

Today I installed some frame plugs for the front crossbar that I received from @hoarder23 . Popped right in. Thank you sir!


Also been trying to focus on tools I’ll be leaving on the truck. Since all my current power tools are milwaukee, Picked up a m12 stubby impact today while at Home Depot.

 

Just returned home from another successful trip. Headed out Thursday afternoon around 4pm to Lake Tahoe. We had knew we weren’t going to arrive until late and it would be crazy searching for somewhere to camp, so for the first night we ended up in a motel around 1:30am. Got some much needed rest and a shower before heading out for a weekend.

Spent the first day out at the beach all day and ended up having one to many beers on a boat. But cannot limit a vacation! Haha. Luckily a few friends had there kids with the group that were licensed and under 21 so we used that as a benefit for us. Paid someone to drive my truck back to a friends cabin. Once we arrived we didn’t want to chance it driving out looking for somewhere to camp so we basically set up camp in front of the cabin. Also for the second night had @eccracer104 join the party and crash out with us for a night. Definitely was good seeing him and enjoyed some modelos together.

For the following day we got a little smarter and searched for a camping spot prior to heading out on the boat.haha. Ended up finding a nice location near Hope Valley for some disperse camping. Once the location was found we headed back out to the water for another day out. Ended up calling quits early enough to setup camp and get the grill on while enjoying the sound of a waterfall that wasn’t to far from us. Sky was amazing! Just lit up all night from the moon


For our last night out we ended up staying at the cabin. Just had a peaceful night of drinkin and bbq’n without having to setup camp and put everything away before heading home this morning. Ended up being a perfect way to end the trip. Now time to plan for the next.

 

Today after work I headed over to Dirt King and picked up my LCA’s that were on order. Nice shop there running with great people

 

Ooooh oooooooh!

 

Started off the morning having to go into work for a bit, ended up having some free time this afternoon so went ahead and installed my LCA’s. Marked tabs prior to removing to get alignment as close as possible. Truck is driving nice. I will of course get a alignment on Monday after work due to my local shop not being open over the weekend

 

Today I received my Fox 12” 2.5’s w/DSC from @AccuTune Offroad . First purchase with them and can say I’m a satisfied customer! There was a small hiccup but they managed to keep there word and Lead time! Now just waiting for shock towers to arrive to setup a install

 

They magicked some out of thin air?

 

Today I met up with @Slidoomz for a quick run through cleghorn. It was my first time out there, even though it was pretty damn hot we still managed to have a good time. Did a couple of the offshoots. Even though it was hot there was a good chunk of people out there.

 

So my driver side headlight started getting a little oxidized. Had bothered me in the beginning but I wasn’t willing to buy a new set of headlights because of it.

I ended up coming across a SR5 headlight with broken tabs for $20 and local. So picked it up and disassembled it for the lens. These lights can be fragile when pulling apart but $20 was worth rolling the dice. This headlight was definitely a pain to pull apart! Tried one night and it was fight. Ended up stopping and pulled it apart the following night.

After replacing the lens and getting the headlight back on the truck I went ahead and hit them with some cutting polish, final polish and wax. Pretty happy with the final results

 

Are you trying to be an influencer lol love the product screen shot hahah Get on the gram already Aaron haha

 

He has enough trouble keeping his myspace up to date

 

Tim unfortunately I have no reason to have a Instagram. You must have a tiktok to go with your “gram”

Shay, your just upset that I keep denying your friend request.

 

Not me, probably a hacker.

And looking at truck porn should be enough reason for the gram. Tim is too old for TikTok

 

Just do it already haha IG is pretty entertaining, tictok not so much.

@hoarder23 is correct I am too old for tictok, especially when my cousins’ kid kept sending me videos from it. Not my cup o tea.

 

Today I cruised over to mountain hatch to pick up a tailgate panel. Nice little replacement, Also received a package from @ARCHIVE . Shock Towers! Very well made product, with parts wrapped individual and detailed instructions. Also with the towers I received some replacement poly bushing.
