I bet that made it interesting!

Big time!! Had the tool boxes out and everything, and when it hit it hit!

Instead of buying a 90* angle drill why don't you just unscrew the steering linkage and take the body bolts off one side then lift it so it gives you enough room to put on your sliders. Then put the body bolts back on and then do the other side just the same. It would save some funds. Unless you want a new toy (90*drill)

Basically just wanted a new toy!!!

...OR....just drill thru the frame from the backside with a long enough bit with a normal drill.

The bolts for the sliders are going all the way thru the frame anyways.....

That might work if the fuel tank, xfer case, and exhaust system wasn't in the way.

Still too muddy to lay on the ground, but decided to replace the female end of the driver's seatbelt since it wasn't locking any more, found a reciept for gas from May 13th, 2001 in Bernalillo by Jason Harris. Was this godspeed? (@1.69 a gallon!!)

Just weld them sliders on and be done with it.

LOL, you just hit the nail on the head!!! Went to try to drill and guess what Murphy did? The freaking drill bit is too long to give me a good angle! Even with the 90* angle drill. Went to town to try to find a shorter bit, no luck. But, an employee at TSC welds on the side and the landlord hired him to do some welding here, so now the sliders are gonna get welded on. FTW!!!!

These are Monroe's 58617. The same ones Pete (Corkey) has on his rig. I was in the chat room at the same time he was one day, and this is where I learned of them. They were only $97 for the set.

This company has good service, but does not send out verification email, I had to call them to make sure my order was recieved, they did call me back the next day to let me know that they did recieve my order.

anytime, thought you were looking for a 1st gen shocks!!!

redid the roof lights and added a third light, it just seemed everytime I looked at the two that were there, they looked like mickey mouse ears.

The casing was looking bad,

sanded them, primed, and painted black, ( I thought I took a pic of one after painting) a foam bowl made a great holder.

then remounted them to the bar, looks much better IMO.

Gotta love UPS here, just got a call from the company I got let go from in March, that UPS delivered a parcel there for me, it's the spare waterpump I ordered and the driver said he left it on my porch on Oct 28th. So not to Jonesboro, but to Temple. (over 50 miles away)

 

[reapereviltwin]

Just came in, went over to Bro's house and got them, couldn't wait till the weekend.

Noticed these are made in Canada, hope they don't say "Eh?" as I'm braking.

 

[lynchy wa]

Hahahaha

Got to hook up my new welder and start to teach myself how to weld today, will be good for a lot of small stuff, but not going to be strong enough to weld the sliders on, just don't have enough amps.

Mine and Robert's Christmas was a bit different this year,

A wood stove in the work shop:
