**OHIO WHEELIN' & MEET-UP THREAD**

Well at least now you can roll it in the pond if need be! Seriously though, she's looking good! I know how it is, I just had my drivers front wheel bearing seize up, and now my steering rack is creaking so loud, it is so always something. Sheesh

 

At least you can drive yours normally, I drove it for about 15 seconds, heard the brakes and then limped it back down the street at 10mph. Felt good to be in the seat though after close to 8 weeks now. But hey, if it's still being a little shit, you guys will have something to work on at wrench fest!

 

^^^Hell yeah, that's the spirit!


Good lookin rigs boys.

 

Almost have drivers side welded in got a lot done even though it didn't feel like it, had some problems with my little welder lol also should have my new windshield washer pump and resivoir in Friday. Knock another thing off the list.

 

What welder do you use?

 

Sorry I've been outta the game lately. Work picked up like crazy. Also, forgot to mention to everyone that my truck was involved in an accident 2 weeks ago. Someone got t-boned into the front of my truck so its at the shop getting put back together. It shouldn't effect me being at the wrench day tho! And Gavin, your always welcome to ride down with me!

 

Glad you weren't hurt! I hope the insurance and repairs are hassle free man, that can be such a pain on top of the fact that if the truck is your DD you have no ride to work!

May take you up on the ride offer, although I'm seriously considering limping my way to Todd's with the dead shock danglin' It'd be a good opportunity to do the diff breather and fluid change as well as maybe get my gas skid bolted on. Still haven't done anything about the nasty bend I put in the gas tank mount at Wills...

 

Yea they are taking care of everything! Even put me in a 2015 Dodge Ram for the time being..but for sure man just let me know if you need a ride or if you want someone to follow you down there haha

 

noted.
