You should probably get that checked out. You may have had a mini stroke. Symptoms last for a short period of time, then go away. However, it can happen again and can cause damage over time. I'm having similar symptoms and will be going to the doctor this coming Friday.

Re: The Colorado BS thread

Ooooooookkkkkaaaaaayyyyyy


So. To say I'm a little hesitant to make this post is an understatement. So before I get to it here's a Lil back ground for you.

I've gone thro a ton of jeeps and one was prebuilt. And some comments I got were that the only reason I was doing anything was because I was in something someone else had built. So I got a chip on my shoulder and decided that my next jeep would be built by me. Every part I could possibly do. And I set this goal knowing a few basic things.
1: I know I can drive i just needed something to drive
2: I can't weld. Think I've used one all of a handful of times.
3: I like what I like.

So with that I started with my bone stock 96 and putevery part on myself. And I wanted to build some of my own stuff. Part of thisis knowing imma screw it up. Have to re do it and that it may not be pretty first few times.
Well today was my first project. I'm about halfway done with the initial setup. My welds look like ass and there is still a lot of work left. But. I get to say I built it. (so if ya don't like it piss off. It's not on your rig! .!.:D.!. )
without further delay.

Re: The Colorado BS thread

Thanks man. Will look good once stinger is on and the mounting plates are trimmed lol. Then gotta get some other plates welded up, gussets, and fairlead setup. Aye, so much work. Lol
 
Re: The Colorado BS thread

That looks stout! I like it so far. What did you use to bend?

Edit: Didn't you just buy new KM2s?
 
Re: The Colorado BS thread

Thanks.I can lift jeep off ground with each bar using highlift. So my poop welds are somewhat holding lol. They will be ground and rewelded before paint
I used LEDs nifty bender. Pretty easy to use so far. But I also only did 2 bends hahaha.
 
Re: The Colorado BS thread

Just dont make the stinger like 3 feet high like I did one time. I had a guy from Pikes Peak Rovers bend the tube for me and weld it on. It ended up freakin really high....here is a pic:

Re: The Colorado BS thread

Re: The Colorado BS thread

I find the key to sharing shitty wells is to take really blurry pics -- well executed on both counts! Fun, aint it, Mike?!

Hey Fred -- I say your kid playing in the orchestra in Sydney on the news tonight -- cool! Congrats!
