Dylans 02 Impulse Red build

I'm a broke college kid!

 

We need to go wheeling sometime man. You shoulda came to uwharrie last week. I've been in salisbury every weekend

 

Pft blakes open open and follows me everywhere..

I somehow also broke my passenger mirror glass in addition to the new dent on the driver side

Well I ordered everything to rebuild my front axle from Marlin and I need new felts and swipes for my knuckles... parts store doesn't have those.. and if they did I probably wouldn't use theirs

 

Steering rack bushings are done! Was a pita and had me almost ready to sac at one point but all is well now!

 

Gives some notice and I'll be there.

 

Replacing wasn't hard. It was getting the center of the rack back in place. At least for me anyways.

 

Yeah, centering it up was pretty hard. Then I dropped the top bolt of the u shaped bushing. It fell into a tiny ass box that I could barely squeeze two fingers into. Not gonna say what I had to do from there but I made it happen lol and it was sorta sketch

 

Do share... Lol. Did I tell you about the time I dropped a tool in my diff? And then had to drop the diff and crack it open? Fuh...

The steering rack bushings are a pita, but totally worth it.

 

No? Idk how you even do that lol.

So this is the bolt I pushed back a little to far I guess



And this was the only hole you could get to it by



Well just say that now the top part of this box has a hole cut in it.... Don't have pics of hole because i was pissed and used a 4.5" angle grinder, that was extremely hard to get in there with. So it's not the prettiest lol

 

In preparation for wind rock yesterday day I got half way packed, thew on skids, and mounted the spare.

 

I'll be back the 21-30 and will def be wheeling! I'll let ya know when

Really wanna go try out Durham town

 

Are you talking about old tellico durham town?

 

Yeah!! You heard anything about it? Or tried it yet?

 

I've seen some pics they posted on fb..I've heard from a few people theres something for everybody. I have been waiting to go out there till I get more recovery stuff set-up. Figured Id be going alone so want to be prepared

 

I got nothing in prep for this. I'll just wing it. I do however have the rtt at least

 

All I bought was a spare wheel so I could have a full size spare

And yeah I'm not cool enough to have a rtt lol thought about doing that instead of 35s but in reality I use my 35s way more than I would use a rtt so it's low on the list lol

 

Yeah I head ya there, I'm getting a rear locker and probably a winch then mods ON the truck will pretty much come to a stop until fall. (Atleast that's the plan right now)

 

^^ that'll change I'm not too worried about this trip. I know some good guys that'll help me out

 

Na, Lol you didn't catch that lol no mods will happen ON the truck until the fall, I'll still be buying things like a front axle, 3 link kit and such

 

SAS?
