Morning guys and gal if she's around

 

Mornin' to you also

 

Put my hard top on this am. My homemade bar and winch worked perfectly. I hung the roof and just backed in under it and lowered it onto the jeep.

 

Here it is hanging

 

Battled the dreaded header studs and won. Gonna finish up the long tube and y pipe install tomorrow morning. Not in the mood to pull skids right now.

 

Oh I could sell it for $750 if I wanted lol I just know of a way to get them in, I bought it in NH

 

Making progress

 

Made up some home made tannerite today .

I got my new gun safe in the house this weekend and loaded it up. Safes are like tents, a "5 man" tent doesn't hold 5 and a "24 gun" safe doesn't hold 24 guns

 

If I was home right now I'd be busy prepping and installing the rack and RTT that got delivered yesterday... So much awesome, so much time to wait.

 

When do you come home Chris?

 

January. Figure I can get the prep for the rack done (probably linexed). Might also do some fab work on it so I can bolt it down to the bed mounts.

 

That's cool. You should see if BAMF or somebody would sell you just that lower section done. The BAMF one is nice because he welds in a disconnect piece (Quick couplers) so that it's easy to remove and install.

 

It was his design I was thinking about high-jacking for the AP rack I have

Cant throw too much more money at it so the local fab shop will have to do. I've done a lot of business with them before, and they are really good.

 

That's cool. Well hope your doing good and get home safe to your family!

 

For sure. My 24 gun safe is full, my 10-gun safe is full, and I definitely don't have 34 guns (yet).

 

All is good here, just searching TW for threads on fiberglass installation. Front fenders FTMFW!

 

Replaced the timing chain, cover, and harmonic balancer on the '84 this weekend. The old balancer had crapped out and the pulley had eaten through my timing cover and it was slinging oil everywhere. Great for rustproofing as you drive, but not so great for wherever you park, lol. I figured that I'd replace the timing chain while I was in there, and from the looks of things it's a good thing that I did!
Pardon the crappy cell phone video, but that's a LOT of slack.

I saw that and was like
I'm amazed it hadn't skipped a tooth.

 

Amen to that, safes definitely run small, especially if your guns have optics

 

No phones or computers for the last couple of hours. Cant wait to go to lunch
