I'm so excited to see V2.0 done and on your truck.

 

[caseycamby]

Perfect painting weather, right?!

 

[bottobro]

That's why I rigged up a hanger in my garage

 

[TheFauxFox]

Its time to suck it up, buttercup!

 

[GPD605X]

^^^ Agreed! Get some heaters and start painting!

 

[caseycamby]

It's not the temperature, just the torrential downpour that's gonna be taking place haha

 

[GPD605X]

Get some tarps lol

 

[caseycamby]

Sanded and taped!

And first coat of primer!

 

[Jack Stilts]

Yesssss! So excited to see updates on this.

Two things:

1. What is that plate with the holes on the tire carrier for?
2. I now know what you meant when you asked where I mounted my plate...

 

[caseycamby]

1. Mount for the hi-lift, I do believe.

2. Exactlyyyy haha

 

[xterraminator]

Ordered a centerlink from work today. I was thinking about getting the Grassroots but I figured $230 compared to $60 with a 2 year warrenty is hard to beat. I can get 4 of these from Carquest before I would've been better to go with Grassroots.

I'm getting prepared for WENT! I'm also gonna do some fluid changes soon, as well!

 

[bottobro]

I'm pumped to see this thing at went

And for went in general hahah

 

[caseycamby]

Same to you!

[caseycamby]

You got it! I'll give you a deal. Just let me know!

Get two at a time then, and carry the trail spare.

The reason is that if it breaks on the trail and you don't have a spare, you planned a weekend of wheeling, etc...and, the weekend is now blown....and, you blew your buddies wheeling time too, as now THEY have to get YOU back out again from what ever terrain busted your centerlink in the first place...instead of wheeling.

Food for thought.

 

[caseycamby]

There's no core on this one so I'll be able to keep the one I have on now as a spare. Mines not completely blown but I'm sure when I replace it, it will clean up some slop. It'll be fine for a trail spare!

Sounds plan-like.

That's what my plan would be.

 

[Jack Stilts]

I've got a trail spare too...at least we'll be covered for Went.

:tunes:

 

[caseycamby]

And every other Gen 1 as well haha

 

[caseycamby]

A week ago today, I ordered a matching spare wheel from 4WP.com. I haven't received any email since an order conformation the day I ordered it. I checked with them today and they said something along the lines of it was backordered, didn't keep any in stock, and they can't get just one from Pro Comp, just a minimum order of four.

Long story short, the woman said I could have my wheel in about 8 weeks....or longer. So I told them no. And give me my money back haha. I contacted Summit and they said it could be shipped out today so I took it!


Annddd.... More bumper progress!

That was about all I could do before I ran out of light. It probably needs about one more coat... I think. It was too dark to really tell haha. But it's getting there

 

[caseycamby]

So my past few days are as follows..


Centerlink came in yesterday and on of the ends that connects to either the idler or pitman didn't have a boot over it. Just a rubber bushing and bunch of exposed grease. So I defected it and have another one coming.

Bought some of this today.. Any guesses?

And this came in today.. Any guesses?

 

[drbandkgb]

hmmmmm more lights?

 

[GPD605X]

Well we certainly know it's not to put on that bumper!

 

[caseycamby]

hmmmmm more lights?

Not yet that's coming soon!

Well we certainly know it's not to put on that bumper!

Too much rain and work!

 

[GPD605X]

Yea yea yea that's what energy drinks and tarps are for! Hahaha

 

[drbandkgb]

Just gonna drop this here..

Why am I just seeing this?

Is this James of RLC?
