geekhouse23's "LIFE'S WAITING TO BEGIN" #EAF Overland & Adventure build

You can just send them to me since you werent expecting them

Good luck on the contest buddy! I wanna see a box of sick tools in your future.

 

Haha thanks man. It would be nice, but I am not holding my breath.

 

Yeah, I never win anything either. I guess I'm just saving all my luck for that winning $1.5 Billion powerball ticket.

 

I feel like winning that roll cart giveaway would bring some positivity to the year of the suck. Things have been going pretty great from a personal perspective, however, something like that for my garage/tool project would be just EPIC.

$1.5 billion....the possibilities are endless..

 

Im glad to see you getting back on your feet, bud. Stacking a few Ws is just what you need!

 

Things seem to be on the upswing....at least until the next downswing lol

 

Good luck, that giveaway got me droolin!!!

Glad your bae was able to set you straight on the Wheel Sensor Skids, gotta love these smart and quick&easy mods! Now Randy's comments got me wondering if Archive will start running a solo skid add-on-option for those doing/have done his Shock Relocation kits?!?!

 

Bro...I can't wait for the next one lol definitely GOALS!!

It should be straight forward, yes.

I can't really speak on Archive. Kinda shocked that these things are a 4-ish week lead time...

 

Id go on a limb and say the part is a 20 min lead time with 3.99 weeks of other crap in front of it type deal.

 

What a wonderful surprise this was...

 

HF ratchet straps FTW!

 

Holy shit...gas tank straps rusted completely through?!

 

Yes!

Also, a less surprising, yes.

 

Good news is rockauto has the straps at a decent price, bad news is they don't come with the nuts to bolt the skid on but ace does.

 

I have no idea what the one at O'Reilly's has. I called it in and it's coming tomorrow morning.

This is to get me out of an immediate bind. I have a job booked for a buddy Saturday morning in Rockford. I need to make it otherwise I'll feel super guilty.

I'll worry about the skid plate later on. I have a plan for the skid plate too so we will have to see what happens.

 

If the ones you get don't have studs, these will fit.

Also, holy fuck.

 

Yeah I have these in my cart on Amazon and will order them soon.

Again, immediate need means O'Reilly's it is.

 

Yeah, I hear you there. Sometime's you've gotta use what's readily available.

Hey, you could use this as an opportunity to sell your current skid and get a trail toys UHMW skid if you really wanted. Can't corrode since it's plastic and it's like 6 pounds. No strap studs needed.

 

That's the actual plan bae

 

I run the skid bae. While the straps are mildly infuriating, the skid is solid.
