The joke I thought of after seeing that picture. What a redneck says right before he dies. "hey guys, watch this!" What a rednecks friends say right before he dies. "you're doing it, you're doing it!"

Search weight reduction for your model, there are some common things you can do to drop some weight and give you a bit more payload. Always good if you are riding two up or carrying gear Other than that, on my 93 all I did was aftermarket exhaust (saved 7 or 9 lbs cant remember) and big old...

By the winch of Thor, thou shalt not get stuck! Went and checked out that winch yesterday. Ran great, It was only the 8inch drum version instead of the 11inch version, so only holds 100' of 3/8 cable instead of 125', but after holding the thing up to various potential mounting points on my...

We need picks of the new rig! The 5 speed is just so you can do your part to use less fossil fuels. Need to fix my Ebrake, have to park on a steep hill at work, have nightmares about it roll starting. Crawled around underneath at lunch, figured out the passenger side cable is sticking...

Just tell the wife that you need to add a winch and a bunch of other mods to add weight to make it ride more comfortably :ylsmoke: Wow my power windows work way better with the new dual battery setup Got the left rear tire patched for free at Les schwab. Dug my hi lift out of storage, now can...

I've heard it is 350 ish for the exact right pto box, less if you can just swap a gear. So worst case, it would be cost of used setup, plus 350 to make sure I got the right pto box for the transfercase. My tentative new plan is to go for this used wormdrive electric winch, mount it on my...

My buddy is chummy with the Dutch Bros. overlords. She did some efficiency evaluation stuff for them. I remember when I was a mountain bike racer when I was a teen, they would give away free cocoa at races. Very nice when it is 33 degrees and pissing down rain. My wife talks ********** about them...

battery appears sorted out. Well I decided to take my battery in to get it tested before buying a new one. Turns out it was in great shape, just 700cca instead of 1045cca. I would have to drive 2 hours from boonyville where I live to get a group 31 like I need. Two weeks ago my wife had some...

Tried calling sears auto today in the big town 30 miles away to make sure they had my rebranded odyssey battery before I drove over there, no answer:Wow1: Will try tomorrow. Think I have settled on one big battery for now, just to save money. This is very much a budget build. If I do go...

Winch for the front, wench for the back and you're set.

This is actually my first diesel that wasn't on a sailboat. I used to repair boats for a living, did lots of diesel repowers/repairs, but sailboat diesels are like hammers, they are so simple. Excited to expand my knowledge base. First mod is battery because mine is shot, charged it to...

Ha, couldn't decide between the 80 series land cruiser/lx 450 and a 1st gen cummins myself, so talked the wife into an 80 series, and got a cummins :-) what can I say, I'm an ideas man. Good luck on your trade, what kind of cummins are you getting? Do they salt the roads where you are in BC...

Well, through a twist of fate, I was able to pull the trigger on a first gen cummins about a year earlier than planned. I put my International scout project on craigslist for an unrealistic price and it was accepted :Wow1: Then found a screaming deal on a 1990 w250 with a 1991.5 cummins...

Ha Ha, my wife and I have been married 7 years, we usually go to the hart mountain hot springs for our wedding anniversary, and we live about 5 hours away from there, and we have a german shepherd. That's got to be the string theory or sumpfin'.

I just saw your sig line, and now have fuel tank envy. I thought my 33 gallon tank in my scout was so large and mighty. I had a few questions about your problem. You are able to lift heavy weight just slowly? And just want to speed things up a bit? If I read this correctly I would think...

saucy! If I weren't half way through my Scout Terra build.....

If the dirt road didn't fix what ailed ya, you just need to up the dosage.

screamin' deal, I am sure someone on here will be stoked you found that for them.:wings:
