Tbars Project "X" begins

[mounty71]

And i wont be wheeling the explorer since its only a lowly 2wd lol.

I will be in the same boat as you, not wheeling either. I am 2wd too, and i just got new gears in and they wont be broken in enough by the time i get out there, but boy am i trying!

Sorry, i got this thread confused with the truckhaven one, i'm going back and forth, haha. But those sliders look really good, hope you put them to good use!

...thank you mounty71....the sliders will now let the, not so athletic girls, get in to the X now...

 

[Tbars4]

...been a busy morning around my shop...happy gilmore stopped by to drop off my new performance mod and mounty71 just happened to be here also getting his rear gears tuned in...mounty 71 and i just ran over to the junkyard to pic us both up some other parts and this evening we will be putting the final welds on my sliders...

Anything happening on this???

 

[Tbars4]

...sorry cyber, i got hit with 5 small jobs in the last 2 days and i am working another sunday too...my welder didn't finish or come over last night, brakelights are out on the X, and it has a nail in the tire...

... i would still like too but it's not looking good at all...the word is out i'm leaving town and everyone wants stuff started now...

 

[cybergasm]

that's cool it'll give me alittle more time to work on my X to get it ready for Truckhaven and besides i gotta do a training class in the AM anyways.

 

[Tbars4]

...you wouldn't happen to have an owners manual that shows what fuses for the brakes would you???

[Tbars4]
