You'll be OK Tex, just don't push it, but don't lay around to much either.
Doing the last of the DR on moms house. 2' of a 16' beam was rotted out and no real good way to scarf it out as it over hung, so I did the whole beam. Was under $40. Old beam was redwood and only held in finish screws. A few 2x4 to hold it up and came out easy when cut to 48" pieces. Primed with Kiltz and when finish paint when installed.

If I recall, the rails are the same with just the xmembers being the diff. I would replace with bolts and box the frame. Did that on a shortned 77.

Is that a new type of Osprey behind it in post #317?
Behind the safety wire art work? That is a Chinook my friend!
I thought he was talking about the wind turbines, kinda look like an ospreys rotors.

When you going to add rotors?

JR, buy twice as much as you need near Lake Tahoe, low down with small payments. Hold it for a couple years, sell off half and you can pay off the whole package.
Something to ponder. Found several lots for between 100-150, so a DP is all it would take. We shall see, I close in 2 weeks and just have a little dry rot to address and a good cleaning. Then its a waiting game since here they can walk away with 3 days to go.

Yep, need driving distance for now, 3 hours or so. Gives options of day trips or long work weekends/weeks.
I would look in Az, NM even as far as Tx if I could.

Nice jack stands! Not even webbing on the 80, just big and thick.
Do the wheels fit on the lugs? If the 14x1.5 are good enough for our Dmax, they should be fine for this. Restud.
SS tip would look nice or contour it.

JR, Dave said he has 63 acres.. don't think neighbors are an issue. That's a good chunk of land for sure.
Love something that big. I keep looking but coming up short on what I want. Even in Ca and Or plots I like are great looking, forested and rolling landscape. In Nv for the same price it is just flat dirt!

LBZ would be awesome and getting common to.
Bumper looks great, but that is a lot of weight swinging out there!

Over at moms house, close to being done.
Just did a drop off at a local "donation center". Places are picky now about what you give them, then leave it in the rain.

My youngest is on a make weapons kick. In fact making bows and crossbows, he would love that.
Did you warn the neighbors, that will go a mile!

I was referring to the pumpkin, not the axles. Heck I would haul that out and get it blasted.
Diodes? Do tell, I have the steps for my max, lift should be here Monday.
Any skid plates going on? I def want one under my Tcase on the max, it hangs out!

Was at moms house late last night, slept in a little today.
Norm lately is I unload the truck with stuff from moms house, then grad a little thing or 2 and head back over.
Battery is the dead on the Dmax,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, It had sounded like it was turning over slower the last week or so. Glad it didn't happen when I was looking at property.
Batteries are 3y7m old, warranty is 3y6y and they don't prorate anymore, so I have to pay full price. So much for interstate battery quality as I just had to replace the wifes battery too. On that I had to pay for the price diff of the new vs the old batter.! So much for free replacement warranty from Costco.
Plan now is to replace them at 3y5m old and sending a complaint to costco.

LOL JR, I might. one month out of the week when they are all "in sync". Either there or the shipping container....
I hope that while the knee is healing I can be building the cabinet doors. Once the shower is done, its just paint in the bath, install the toilet and trim and hook up the drain and supply plumbing.
Plumbing while the knee heals? Cabinets I can see.

Love 7-7s, had 2 big ones last night. Slept great.
Looks good Charles. That whole guest house is pretty high end. You planning on moving in?

Working on moms house. Have to have it done by the end of the month final. Closes on the 5th.
Put 4 pieces out for free, gone in 3 hours.
Having to put grounded plugs through out. Wire is there, just not hooked up in 55. Only GFCI was in the bathroom, had to add 2 by the kitchen sink, 1 to washer.
Move washer/dryer outlets to other side of the wall along with the water. Tub was pretty easy with the sharkbit fittings. Trap is still on the other side of the wall. All the lines had been run through holes in the wall, hense the wood.

Oh and for bodies, deep moving water is great. Barrel, a few holes with weight.

You can get drop in triggers for under $100 that are nice.
Have you checked the trigger for reset yet? It will seem to function normal but if you miss that little spring under the hammer you could get multiple dischargers. Just an FYI is all as it does happen.

Looks good. Hub should be 116mm or 4.56 inches.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I grabbed a hub diameter of 130.81mm or about 5.15" off the box that Don's new wheels came in. Guessing those might have been a little larger then the factory wheel.
To move it around, lots of steel there.

DI on a gas engine to boot. See towing on the dually is 33k

« on: March 18, 2019, 07:42:39 PM »
Ended up going with the Fox 2.0 for the front, but I ordered Cognito specked/Deaver rear 4 in springs. More I thought about the rear, I still want my towing. The stock rear shackle is better for towing.
When I remount the rear shock mounts, I will order shocks.

Is the pond deep enough to dive into from the wall you built?
5897
« on: March 18, 2019, 12:12:56 PM »
That’s good. I like seeing guys in parking lots with the lip full of sprinkler water, knowing it will be their til it evaporates
Or you go down the road and the tire is way out of balance filled up with crud you went through. Ordered the lift today, Cognito K0502, 4-6 inch, NTBD from LiftKits4less. Listed for same as everyone else, but they had 5% off, no tax and free shipping. I already have the Cognito upper control arms too. No shocks yet but leaning towards the Fox 2.0 as they have a special one for this lift. Then probably rotate the rear shock hanger for clearance along with reversing the ubolts like Dons. Think the clearance will come in handy with the land I am getting.

TRN, I'm in one of those states too and I get so much of it in the bay area.
Also think it is going to get worse before it gets better. That part may not be voting, but real fighting I fear. Hear they are talking about 16 year olds voting now. That would sink us fast, even my daughter thinks its bad. Now they are being called new arrivals too. And arriving at 75K a month!!
Lee turned, but lets face it what support did he get? Daily bombarding can ware anyone down, but I still don't agree with what he did.
Almost all of them hate Trump, he is an outsider and that scares them.
God help us.
