Looks like you had fun. It was great day to be out wheeling.

well here was my latest Fordyce trip. didn't go so great I've been like 5 times so I figure Fordyce is about a 20% chance of being any fun
I think I broke the pins off my aussie, having some weird low idle and dying, and definitely bent my LCA mount even more, ripped off my front bumper, grill, entire clip and headlights

but I made it home



here is the worst cell phone video ever taken. the water rose while we were on the trail from 120cfm to 280! I call shenanigans PG&E

friggen deep. I had to ghetto-ize my air intake. removed the filter and aimed the hose going from the TB to the box backwards so it wouldn't drink a bunch of water... again. worked



and heres a random old clip of moonrocks memorial 2013. vids never do justice I was digging my rear bumper into the ground

^ 5 speed?

Looks clean. I dig it.

 

[CAJJ93XJ]

I wish. could not for the life of me find a half decent 5 speed.

yeah its almost too clean. I'm tempted to sell or trade it. the interior is cherry even the headliner is mint. and I'm just gonna rip it all out...

Sad day.

Any progress on the new rig?

And with your old high steer setup/tera knuckle, did you have any clearance issues with the drag link hitting the oil pan or anything?

yeah new rig is gonna be torn to pieces and built in the next week or two. should be a 5 month process from start to finish

no clearance issues on the drag. just the typical tie rod vs. diff cover
