can't do engine swap this weekend too much snow, waiting on more tubing for cage other than that i can do the rest
 
I'm wondering if I can make this trip or not.
Two of my brothers live in Queen's Creek (near Apache Junction) and there is a prison in Florence that I could some recon work at (a bud of mine is now some big wig at he company that owns the prison.)
If I make it, there shouldn't be much that I would need to do.
Most of the 'to do' list should be completed soon...
well, there is that front 44 I could install,
relocate the rear shocks,
truss the damn rear 44.
replace the radio
oh yeah, need new seat belts
maybe some better cooling
etc
etc

Swap pro-Comps shocks to ranchos

But all this will be done thursday for TDS, I just hope I dont break there for our rockfest...
 
I'm just gonna spend my time praying that the throw out bearing that is making a grinding noise doesn't take a crap on me. Other than that, the Super 30 and ARB will be done Monday. Just finished Snorkel, Front Bumper and Rear Discs. Gonna do one shakedown near 4 Peaks next weekend and something more challenging after that. This oughta be fun though. :sunshine:
