I have been engaging mine manually for over a year now. Pliers are pretty rough on that knob. Mine is completely twisted now. I tried to put a shift motor on it but it is too twisted to seat properly. I find what works best is a gator grip type socket. I keep mine in easy reach of the driver's seat. I now call my t-case 'the third hub'.

 

[Trckmagik]

Randall,

I have your manual T-case all loaded and ready to roll to Gilmer. No more third hub

 

[Gofast]

GAtor socket.....

What size would that be? Bigger than a 9/16 or is it a one size fits all. I need to go get one at lunch today.

Thanks Rob

 

[Michael]

is it a one size fits all

There you go. The GatorGrip is one of those cheesy late night infomercial things. They probably sell them somewhere. I'm sure you could borrow Randalls this weekend though.

I think I've seen it for sale at Wally-mart.

 

[Gofast]

Got it.....

I just picked one up at Autozone. Tonight I will test 4lo and hopefull get all the seats bolted in. This will be a fun first outing. Can't wait to actually "wheel" my rig again.


Whooo Hooooo!

Then I'll start fixing all the little things, like gauges, and turn signals, and putting the interiour back togather, adn someday.....a radio.

Alrighty guys, after the run, I want photographic proof that Rob's Explorer really showed up and is really running, LOL

 

[Gofast]

Proof.........We don't need no proof!

OK, Mister Rubicon dude. I got your proof right here!
( Lord, please keep my truck running for 3 more days )


All I can say is it sure is fun to drive something that sat for almost 3 years.....

Rob
Brought to you by the letter P. ( Proof )

 

[Trckmagik]

His truck is running... You can tell without seeing or hearing it as he has posted more in one week than he has in three years J/K I cant wait to see it in action again.

 

[Gofast]

Oh my gawd....

Brian hit the nail on the head. I've actually returned from lurker status to active ( almost ) wheeling status.


Scary,Scary,Scary. What will my neighbors think when trucks start showing up at my house again?

My next goal is to be street legal.

I may try to head out early with Msupertek if I get all the seats bolted in early enough on Friday. Otherwise I will Meet Daniel at the Wal-mart. (I'll call if I am not going to be there )

Thanks Rob

I especially want to see photos if he shows up with a loose lawn chair for a driver's seat

Gofast thanks so much for putting my Warns on a few yrs back what kind of beer you drink? See you guys sometime Sat.


Herc's former copilot signing off

 

[Gofast]

Lot's of friends.

I prefer cold beer, but any beer will do in a jamb!

Look forward to seeing you again AspenX.

Brian which CB channel will you guys be running on?

I will most likely meet Daniel at Wal-Mart.

Thanks Rob

 

[Msupertek]

SVO can't make it.

Just found out SVO will not be able to make it out.

Bummer but hey there are still a lot of us. By the way Go Fast if you do want to follow me out (or anyone else for that matter who has a change of heart) here is my phone number. 817-992-6527.

Later guys, I look forward to seeing all ya'll out there.

 

[swak6287]

woohoo...i got 33s and i cannot wheel.. go figure. guess this time around i am all talk, no show.

 

[Trckmagik]

Rob, That is a good qqestion. I guess someone should post the CB channel so Rob can find us when he gets there. Rob also take down all three #'s I just gave you. One of them are bound to work.
