Section525 - SAS D44 - Page 2 (Finishing... maybe)

Here is my list, Steve:

1) New M/C w/ proportioning valve
2) Toyota IFS steering box w/ new steering shaft (this will hopefully fix some steering issues)
3) Install IAC Spacer (I was a stalling **** at t-haven '06)

The run this month isn't looking do-able. But, I'm shooting for the MLK run since hopefully IZ will be there and it'll give me more time to get ready, and more seat-time in the Explorer.

Maybe these Sac area guys, ahem, colindo94, will carpool down with me. :)

You know the Turkey Day run is coming up in about 7 weeks.:D

O' Great, now Johnny has a "I Have A Dream" speach!
 






Id be there...but I currently reside in Boulder, Colorado.
 






I like the zip tie method of holding your front brake lines on, hah. My rear brakes are just dangling there.
 






ARB is bad ass! I emailed them on a Sunday night about not getting a 'compressor' switch cover with the compressor. They called me the next morning and sent me a new switch no questions asked. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Now I'm really going to have to get on the rear locker install. :cool:

...Do you have a bigger area picture of that switchboard, just showing where it's located and set up???

...After reading this I called ARB and told them I was missing the locker and all I got was a switch...They didn't buy it...:D

It's just a 7"x7" plate that I broke at the top. It uses the factory bolts under the ashtray to mount. Works for now.
 






...Thanks for that...I am trying to think of different ideas for someone elses custom switch panel...:biggthump

You should do yours like Jamie did Julee's:

You can also see the Cobra CB installation, her fog light switch, DVD player switch, and bass control knob... its getting crowded down there!!

I spent Sunday finishing this up and detailing the truck, Ill get some better pics with a CLEAN engine and interior LOL
everything works 100%, FJ + 4.56 on 33's = SCOOTS

Lockers work great, cant wait to hit the trails!!
 






...I like that too and it will work well with all the other persons switches...I guess that plate was modified from the FJ...:scratch:
 






OMG all this talk about where to place a few switches!! Just put it on them on top of the roof already :p:

For the Ranger or the Ex?
 












This "other" person must not want their identity revealed for fear that they are going to upgrade their truck and it still may not perform potentially causing them to be on the receiving end of a tow strap for the rest of the day.
 






...This "Other" persons truck, like Section, will not be making it to TH...But I will pass the info along when I see him this weekend...:D
 






Now that this thread has been throughly hijacked

hmmmm Wonder how one leads on the end of a tow strap? ;):p:
 






Little bit of a winter update. :)

Got a smokin' deal on some 37x14 IROKs. They'll be awesome in the snow. Running them on the 8" wheels for now. I'll probably do a DIY beadlock kit on my steel wheels and throw these tires on those wheels. But for now:
