Texas BS Thread

Yea ill do it soon, me and Alex are going to try to satoshi.

My problem is i worked over here and made some pretty damn good money for my age. I saved some but i want to use it for emergencies or college expenses, but my young age is telling me to spend it. Its freaking hard!

today is my last day in wonderful Iraq!! I need a fucking beer!
and 2 days till i get to see my two beauties... truck and bike

 

Whats up Hoss! how ya been. When we gonna go play in the mud and creeks again? Ive supped up the truck quite a bit since the last time we went wheeling

 

I hear ya man, im going to try the satoshi next month. I know what you mean with the money thing it sucks being grown up. But theres nothing wrong with spending some and saving the rest, just think of it as your reward for everything you did .

 

Have you checked my build?? What i did in the last year has been my reward

Icons, allpro leafs, front rear bumper replacements, winch, 4 different Aux lights, rear locker, and a bunch of random small shit Ive had a blast with it and i love my truck even more than when i bought it now. EDIT: thats just the stuff ive done to the truck, not including the bike and sprucing up my apartment

My dad keeps chewing my ass for not saving more but i got enough to where i shouldn't have to work during college if i dont want to. I probably will though just because im a workaholic, and right now im used to working 100hr weeks

 

I actually re-read it earlier lol, maybe just a 'small' reward then

 

Yea im thinkin about building a AR15 or buying a built MP5 22.lr conversion just for messing around with.

 

Ar15 ftw, but the mp5 22lr would be a fun plinker, well i gtg to sleep, I think your heading back stateside today , good luck and and pre-welcome back stateside

 

Thanks bud! Have a good one, and take it easy. Ill be back to the good state in a few days. Got 5 planes to catch FML

 

Got an appointment with the taco dr tuesday to see about some TSB leaf springs...

Wish me luck! I'm gonna need that inch saturday!

 

Workin' on my dream list...
Edit- and good luck with that lol

I got 4" of lift in the rear

 

I think i have about 4in of lift in my rear too

how did you get yours?

 

2" blocks + 2" aal. + high clearance plate steel bumper

 

i like my allpro Expos

EDIT: i thought they were gonna be pretty stiff but they really arent.

 

I'm getting expos when I get the money

 

I havent had them long but im really happy with them so far.

 

I'm not sure if I need to keep reading this thread anymore... I'm doing my best to resist doing a bunch of mods to my truck and y'all are not helping! I really do need to get a LSD rearend though.

 

Aren't LSDs better for the street than locker's though? I'm thinking more for snow/ice and the trips off road when at my friend's lease.

 

Youd definitely be better off with LSD in Ice/snow. The locker will get squirrely pretty quick (fun for me) but not for everyone. I went with the no-slip locker, which i think is just a lil upgraded version of the lock right. or atleast it cost more

 

I wouldn't mind the fun - but if my wife ends up driving this truck it needs to be safe for her.
