^^^^^^^^^^^^^

thanks folks!!!!

Was not able to get on the new air comprerssor this weekend due to doing a turnaround at work ( got home Saturday, left back out this morning)

Also decided to upgrade my camera system with a better system, so now this is gonna go in:

Out with the old, new going in.

Got the new compressor installed, now the the fun electrical and other items. I replaced all of the compressor assy's for the lockers, those dang solenoids surprised me with their cost.

Hurry up and throw some dirt on that compressor. Looks out of place like that. :

X2 on that. The air lines are hooked up now (instead of reruning the air lines from the axles I just used splicers) and the coolant overflow/washer fluid canister is back in place. Had to bring the door panel in and redo the mount holes for them, the new rocker switches are a tad larger than the old ones, the air compressor switch had to be mounted on the panel in a different location instead of in a line with the locker engagement switches. Dark now, so will finish up in the morning. The time to get some dirt on that nice clean compressor is drawing near.

What it looks like finished, could not mount it parrell to the fender well like the old one, just a little too long for that, so had to go for sideways, but it is firmly in place.

The only way I could figure how to install the air compressor switch.

The shock pin eliminators that Brian1 made, finally going in.

Old next to new.

I am gonna replace the front shocks on the Jack also, looking for ideas on which shock to get, want to go with heavy duty, so I know price is going to be up there a little. Any input from EFer's is welcomed.

 

[gmanpaint]

Since you trailer it everywhere, I would choose a shock that has more dampening.

Adjustable shocks are also an alternative. You just turn a dial to softer or stiffer ride depending on what the majority of the terrain is for that day.

Lots too choose from these days. I would just research a bunch before spending anything.

Got to do a little work on the rig today,

New shocks, brakes, calipers, and hubs.

I'm sure my Bro will post about my "stupid is as stupid does" moment.

Oh yea he was haveing trouble getting the left brake line to go back on , well it may have been because he was putting the right caliber on left side

Been there, done that, have the t-shirt.

 

[NICE59FORDF100]

Yep

 

[reapereviltwin]

LOL, and I thought I was the only one. :shifty_ey

Robert caught it, but I can't post my response since it would get me banned. Said a few nasty words.

Thanks Russell!!!!! We did a few more things over the weekend, then I noticed my front diff oil is contaminated, so got that to do before we head out. Minor correction, at least it was noticed before we hit the trails and before it turned into something major.

 

[reapereviltwin]

Pretty sure this was on Engineer trail.

The only trail damage: shock mount broke going to Cinnamon, upper mount said it had enough, so just took off the shock and thru it in the rig, then finished the trail.

Thanks Greg, !!!!.

The Ouray run was just fantastic, even with the "ah crap" moments going, trailing, and headed back!
