Gasket should be about $2.50

 

Got the front diff gasket numbers?

 

didn't replace that one. I want to say it's the same thing though.

 

Now that I think of it, I think it is too.

 

yeah, it's a very different plug bolt, but should be the same gasket.

 

transfer case, front diff, rear diff, and engine are all full of fresh, quality fluids
again, many many thanks, mark!

want a picture of your house?



For chris, here's what my tank skid looks like. most of the scrapes are on the leading edge, because much further behind that, and the tire hits whatever hit the skid and lifts you right over.

 

Damn that is a badass quad copter!

Still have more work to do though. Those used skids put up a good fight.

 

i'm sad that i won't be there for msr. i was getting pretty excitied about trying to trail you guys with the gopro hung off the bottom. straightaways wouldn't work out so well, but it would make for some crazy shots in the corners.

yeah, i totally forgot about how much a pain in the ass mounting that tranny skid was. after struggling with it last night, i rememeber it being just that hard when it was brand new. i think the modification we talked about will work out well. i also have some steel sitting in my trailer, just waiting to be used, so this would be a good opertunity to beef it up real quick.

 

Get all the sand out yet?

 

sand still falls out of my shoes every day when i take them off at the gym

 

I honestly doesn't even know where it comes from...

 

Well I certainly know where all it got... lol.

Where that pile of sand came from on the second day, I am mystified.

 

i'll turn your driveway into a beach before you know it.

 

Happy Thanksgiving everyone

And happy Hanukkah to anyone who celebrates Judaism

 

This made me laugh.

 

Happy turkey bud. I posted a video for you in the fl bs thread.

 

deep fry from the sky!!!

Jewish girlfriend...I gotta stay on top of this stuff

lol, that was awesome. yall have a good turkey day?

 

Glad you liked it. Our day was good except the last minute crazy idea to go to walmart @ 6:30 tonight to get clothes for kyle to spend the night at his aunts house. But we did end up walking out with 2 of the $98 32" LED tvs. Cant complain about that. Looks like you had a good day as well. That's a great picture you were tagged in on FB of you and all your family.

Now I am eagerly awaiting waking up in the morning and ordering 2 more of those LED pods and a 22" bar for my bumper. Might not sleep very well thinking about those.

 

sounds like it was a successful day! I've seen a couple people post about those TVs on facebook already. apparently it's a popular item this year.

 

Yeah, we had no intention of doing anything related to shopping except for ordering the lights in the morning. But since we were there we figured we might as well get them. Actually we got the "1 hour in stock" slips. So we have to register on line and pick which store to have them shipped to and they will be there before Christmas.
