Since we're having a swap meet , 90ranajo wants me to remind RangerX to brng out that spare tie rod for the d-35. He is without internet access right now. I am not sure if he needs the outer or the inner. I just looked at the pics and it looks like it bent right on the threads on the inside of turnbuckle. So it looks like an inner If you can't we'll just give it the old tape messurer trail allignment and call it good

...if the width is the same front and rear i always have my strings for a quick alignment...

If I make it out I'll see if I can bring some with my dad

So, whatever you do..


Don't follow me.

this makes me so sad I can't bring the ex out now

Steve, you gotta make it out! My kids want to see your truck!

 

[Burns]

Hey i want to see the truck to haha lol

 

[Stic-o]

Steve, you gotta make it out! My kids want to see your truck!

Ok here is the deal It will be a last minute thing no matter what. It's really out of my hands The wifes due date is next wednesday, so everything is up in the air. The plan is if she has not gone into labor by saturday morning, I was going to head out with just the 150, and head back around 8-9pm. I really want to bring the JP mobile out, but It's really a slim chance right now

 

[Exploderpilot]

Ahh well, I guess if it doesn't happen now, we can always have a congratulations cleghorn run or something!

 

[BKennedy]

Steve, stay home and take care of your family. You can go wheelin' anytime. We like having you along, but: Your wife would be really pissed if she delivered when you were at Truckhaven. I mean, never let you live it down pissed. I mean, you would suffer for the rest of your life pissed. You see what I mean?

If you come out now, I bet you will be changing diapers during TDS........ Think About It.

 

[Stic-o]

That's why I was just going to come out in the 150. If I get a call it's that her water broke I can jump in the truck and get to the hospital pretty quick. With the a explorer to load back up, be stuck at 55mph towing, unload the truck and so on....not so quick

 

[Exploderpilot]

Bkennedy is right though man, sometimes the water breaks and the baby comes 48 hours later, sometimes 48 minutes later. Don't risk it. We will be back in truckhaven soon, and want you to be able to be there. He's not joking. You miss the birth, you'll be changing diapers during TDS on the brand new changing table you bought with the money she made by selling the JP mobile!

Well F*** Me!

Hmmm might look like I need to change a radiator now too before I go

Got in the X this morning to take my sister and hers kids to school/work
and was warming up the truck when I got out to help the kids get in.

I noticed something in front of the truck on the ground and looked and it was coolant

Popped the hood to see where is was coming from and sure enough it was leaking from both side tanks.

but after doing what I had to do I stopped at AutoZone to pick up a couple things
and when I check it there no leaks:scratch::shifty_ey

hmmm wondering now if I just throw in a rad. from the jy for now or keep running it and hope it does'nt completly go out on the way to Truckhaven?

 

[Tbars4]

...call around to a couple radiator shops and see what it would cost to rebuild your...it would be like new and i think it cost about 65 bucks....at least thats what it's cost me for my big trucks...and see if they have same day service...

 

[Exploderpilot]

I'll look here and see if I can find the radiator from the black ex.....

 

[cybergasm]

Can the plasticky radiators be rebuilt? I Always thought not?

 

[Exploderpilot]

Yeah they have tabs on the tanks that bend open. they peel them open, either rod out or replace the core, and then bend the tabs back. I think they glue them or seal them with something too. My pops buddy did one in our driveway for the CNG explorer.
