OMG after i get my truck done with the lift and such I'm so going to get it on a t shirt :clapping: you rly need to get pete to put this up in a Sticky for all to see :cheers: Brandon

most likely :thumbsup: lol you should update the brake booster :D Brandon

So it has been a bit since i last posted so i think its time for an update. i have not done much due to school :( . I mounted my fog lights with all hopes of wiring them up and tackling some electrical problems like the dome lights having a bad ground and the turn signal lights coming on when i turn my lights on. So since mounting them fog lights was such a pain i did not get them very tight since i wanted to move them around when i got them working to have them line up. so i had to take one off because it was about to fall off and did not want to deal with the time to get it tight again. so now i have one fog light that dose not even work, that black flap is still hanging under my truck because i need to get around it to get to the fog light scerws and do not want to put it back up untill i get them lights working, i still have not gotten a new bumper and due to me driving a bit "hard" while i have a lot of wood in the bed ( like 3000 lbs) the bumper is now just sitting on the broken bracket and will fall off very soon :( . how ever there is good news, i got a newer subwoofer from a friend for $30 bucks :clapping: and a new front tag that i got at the sunbelt ag expo the other day with FFA, for 5 bucks :D the sub is in a huge really nice box that i do not what to chop up to make it fit behind my seat so now i will have to use an hold house speaker box to chop up and the back of the nice box to wire it up. I will put that in maybe tomarrow but :dunno: i might wana do that when i do the electrical stuff. so hear are some pics of the tag and silly looking one fog light and the lights when i got them (i got them for free from my GF's dad and have had them for 2 mouths now): so yeah my truck looks kinda bad but thats fine it will look good soon enough :banana: And i do have somthing kinda funny. last night i had a bonfire with my GF's a few friends and a few of her friends. anyways when it got kinda late i had to take my GF home and she lives on a very long dirt road. well this was about 12 at night, so after i dropped her off and when i had left her drive way i thought that i was pulling over on solid ground to call my friends to see if they wanted me to bring some food back, any ways i did not pull over on to solid ground i had started to pull over into sugar sand and had to walk back to her house and knock on the door to see if they could pull me out. so her mom cam up to the door in her red pj's lol and since her dad was hunting had to try and take her ford explorer to pull me out but since 1st i have no where to hook up my tow strap in the front and cuz i didnt want her to get stuck. so she told me to do somthing she used to do when she would get stuck in the snow which i had never had happen. i had to "rock it" which means i had to put it into drive then reverse while hitting the gas over and over again untill i pulled out. so now today is home coming and her dad is home and my gf said her dad is going to rip me up about getting stuck :rotfl2: i guess its true you really do learn some thing new every day :rotf: ok well yet again i hope yall enjoyed my build so far and will update asa somthing happens. thanks Brandon

Manual > Auto. Every thing, every time. :rotf: well ive been around this once before with the hole locker thing with yall, and have just spent the past 45 min reading up on every thing i think i need to know and know that an air locker is not what I'm looking for. i should have looked around b4 i asked. and to the fact that you say just turn around and sell it for $500, I'm not that type of guy and would see that as screwing the guy i bought it from and it would tie up my $ way to long untill i could sell it. Thanks for the input guys Brandon

allright well now i know but i think that if i need a on board air compressor I'm not sure if i want that then. why would this be better then an auto locker? Brandon

I have been emailing this guy for a bit now about this locker. this is what i replied to originally: "I have a ARB locker for a Dana 30, 3.73 or numerically higher gears. To my knowledge it works. Its the older unit. (3 piece, the newer ones are 2 piece) Price is make offer because i have no interest in the unit. I have it boxed and ready to ship to its new owner. I will take trade on xj or mj stuff." well i would like to have this and the price we worked to was $200 + shipping. well i was wondering if that is a good price and if this a good locker to use? also just to make sure will this work for 4:10 gears? thanks Brandon

well now see thats cool. to bad you can only fit one small person in the center. great idea :cheers: Brandon

oh wow this looks so very nice great job. :cheers: Brandon

omfg first of all i have never seen this thread it looks cool. and 2nd thats amazing i wana buy one of them shirts :D Brandon

i think that for 35" tires a 4.5" lift would make you chop the hell out of your fenders to fit them under your truck. I think but don't know for sure that for 35's you will need a 6" lift with some trimming but i don't know for sure :dunno: sounds like a full build if you go though with it but since ive been on hear like 3 people had made a good talk but never made the walk :( have fun :D Brandon

why is that? :dunno: Brandon

wow man if you wana go all out then you might as well do a 4x4 convert and the 97+ front end convert. then your truck would be a full done MJ :cheers: can't wait to see this all unfold :D Brandon

:rotf: i still have not done this because of lack of time/$ and i started this :rotfl2: Brandon

really? huh it was just a guess my ag teacher allways buys them because they are such a good tool but i never looked into if they had them in air or not sry. Also ive seen many around stores in my town under $200 :dunno: Brandon

ive allways liked dewalt. look them up ive never seen one go bad. :thumbsup: Brandon

ok i just emailed chrysler lets see what happens :cheers: Brandon

:agree: you just want to see them types burn. its so dad that some people go out to protect the US and then people go out and do things like this. whats the world coming to :roll: Brandon

looks great to bad you didnt get it :fs2: i don't hunt :( but my Gf's dad dose but he has not got a deer in like 2 years. he mainly just drinks alot of beer and shot at "sound targets" :roll: its kinda scary, but good hunt.

yes they will and will look great. they will rub when you lock to the left on the lower control arm's. :thumbsup: welcome :wavey: Brandon

just Why? Brandon

That chart was very helpful thanks Brandon

They don't need one of these, they already have a swipe device built in. :brows: :doh: :rotfl2: Brandon
