XPOTRPR build & BS

I hear that. Grown up shit. Lol how's the business goin? And yessir. Still doin our thing!

 

No problem man! Thank you! It was great to meet you and chat with you for a bit.

 

Same! we'll have to get out and explore, do some shootin.

 

Slowly but surely ..

More upgrades and maintenance coming up. Getting it dialed back in and prepping for a Spring Adventure up to Yosemite and surrounding areas.

 

So hawt

 

Thank you Brotha.

Looks good from afar.. but far from good. Lol

 

Shoot, it looks like it's been some fun places and has lots of stories to tell!

Mine looks like it never left the mall and cant decide if it wants vente or Grande coffee

 

stories for sure.

And hey man... Just means it's gonna be sticking around for a while! Used and NOT abused

 

Hell yeah, I like you're thinkin

 

Well, couldn't stand the shit job the last place did on the exhaust...and over the years it's just taken a beating. The Magnaflow finally died.

I took it to a new place recommended to me and got good vibes from the 62 year old owner. He's been doing it for 41 years and made me feel well taken care of. New exhaust from the headers back. 2.5" Y, no cats, into 3" collector, 3" piping into a resonator and then into the biggest Magnaflow that will fit.

Also ordered materials today to rebuild my Kings with the help of @Rextinkleton93 at all 4 corners, including some 700# springs.

Still need to pull the bumper to install the Baja Onx6 and fix the wireless switch on the winch.. and at that same time, hoping to add some headlight hoops to it.

Also need to install my NST pulleys once the Alt pulley gets exchanged, and then I'll be finally ready to do some Datalogging with the HP tuner and get this pig dialed in.

 

Dang but also hell yeah at the same time

 

Nice! Where did you take it for the exhaust? I'm looking for a place to reroute my exhaust up over the transfer case for a little more clearance.

 

Wade's custom muffler. Out in Northeast Mesa

 

Sweet, thanks man! I'll check them out.

 

No problem! And we'll find out tomorrow when I pick it up!

 

Exhaust is all done. Almost zero rasp. Very very little, and very faint right under 3k under load. And I can only hear it when the radio is completely off and it's dead silent. Otherwise, its nice and deep sounding, and flows much better.

Also got my LCA skids bolted on last night. Need to finish installing the rest, and I can do some Datalogging finally.

King rebuild materials should ship today.

 

First HP Tune file loaded last night.. woohoo what a difference so far.

 

truck is back to getting some love after grenading a CV on the trail. New cv's, fresh rebuild on the kings, hopefully new uca's. Pushed it a little too hard on an obstacle.. and it was just my wife an I. let it eat and the CV said peace. Winched out of our shitty spot we were in (as I was also high centered on my gas tank skid and rear axle housing). limped it back to cell service a couple miles in 2wd locked, that was interesting.. and called the homies to bring a new cv and some tools. Luckily I had the 35mm axle nut socket... but my dumbass forgot I took out all my other tools. So we sat and waited, repaired it in 40 minutes tops, and hit the road. made for a long day. got it back home and started tearing it down.

huge thanks to @Rextinkleton93 for the help rebuilding my Kings last night. Wasnt too bad actually. The rebuild process is actually pretty simple.. just gotta stay organized. Only issues that took a while and added to our overall time, was a sheared bolt in the top plate we tried to get out, and eventually gave up on (I will mill it out at work on the Manual Mill) and shitty auto parts store snap ring pliers.. now I know. lol

thanks again brotha!

 

Happiest Birthday to you Moose!!!
