What did you accomplish today?

[SSGrower]

Get some cardboard out and make some templates......good beginner welding project if you don't know how.

I've built a bunch of offroaders over the years. Current toy is a XJ with long arms on it....thinking about 4 linking the rear. It already flexes like crazy but the 4 link would be cool and pretty much was part of the original plan for it. Kids are finally big enough to do some more serious off roading. Fire roads are fun to get you out there but I need to put my tires up on some rocks.

I do "need" a welder, write the justification I'll see if I can get it through committee, note new truck just approved.

Is it in nice shape?

 

[raratt]

Yup, not running because the gas tank they put in has a crack in it.

I have my truck for that, I had 3 FJ's at one time. One had a fiberglass body and a 5 speed and a built 327, it was stupid/scary fast. One should not be able to roast mud and snow tires in third gear.

It doesn't look like it's going to get better soon. I was eyeing up a big recycle bin at home depot thinking I could make that into a one person pool lol.
