Now that's smart! Purposely rolling truck to dry clothes.

Plus that pic reminds me that I need to add some more exo lol.
Including an attaching point of top of exo near roof line.

What becomes of these?
And is there enough orange to do the whole truck. Then call it "Orange Crush".
 












you go stand in front of the parts washer for 2 hrs only to put it back under the rig to get dirty as **** again.

im just going to leave the shift indicator in place, and the front vent ill put the hose back on when I get it in the rig. I could have painted the cases but it would have taken forever to clean them to no avail. They will work as is, and they will have the skidplate over them anyway, so you won't even be able to see the doubler.
 












Dinner and then a movie with my woman (all at home after a hard day of couponing)... Yup I said it...

Want me to try and come down tomorrow night after she gets home? She has OT tomorrow, not sure till when...

:wtf:
there is something wrong with you, something that makes me think you should live in san francisco.

Josh is coming over this afternoon so hopefully we can get it in there today. got the shifters figured out, just need to build them now.
 


















I only pretend to like cars/truck to get closer to you big boy...

I only hang out with you to get closer to your wife
 






getting a start on the shifters, the outside shifter will be on a bend to clear the other and they will ride on the same bolt. getting pretty stoked on double low.

We actually had normal winch weights on the rest of the winch lines but we had run out LOL. Well normal I guess a couple of bags with BBs sewed into em

5 winches on your truck, oh well last obstacle last day, and yes I broke, a stub shaft. Other than that nothing on that little climb.
 






doubler case was seeping a little bit, decided to take the whole thing back apart and address that problem. could periodically add fluid but while its on the bench may as well fix it right. the crappy part was getting all the old silicone off. I really hope it seals well, im letting it sit for a few hrs not torqued down until it gets tacky, try and get it to seal a little better.

close enough to the seat they are gonna have to be straight up and down for high and forward for low range. the stick closer to the shifter is going to be the doubler and the one nearer the seat will be the tcase itself. I think they look good, ill have to get one of those twin stick boots.
