[DieselS10]

That's the one you guys should be working on!

[Tim99Zr2]

i would.. but its not mine. its my brothers. and he dont know how to change oil... it'll never get done.

383 stroker and a muncie 4 spd... dad said it was really fast! he bought it in like 76 and parked it in like 78... hasnt driven it since. he tore it down in like 2000..

[DieselS10]

That sucks, that thing deserves to be finished.

[Tim99Zr2]

i know.. if it were mine i would do it.. but its not, sooo im not dumping my money into it.

we had a guy offer us 8k for it, the way it sits. i wish i could put it on over haulin.

[donaldps10]

[Tim99Zr2]

haha thanks. and all my bro does is play world of warcraft.. he dont care bout that car

[donaldps10]

steal it from him... ahhaha

i'll make a trip to come up and help you!!

and tell him to stop letting girls write on it... haha

[wrekd]

My friend and his brother have a 67 Chevelle SS rag top that was there fathers. 396 Muncie 4 speed all original. Thing WAS in beautiful shape until his brother took hold of it. Its still in good shape except for all the dings and scratches he put in it from using it as his fvcking workbench

[Tim99Zr2]

haha, that writing was from us all drinkin up in the garage, i dont care cause its just rattle can primer. only to keep the body from completely rusting out!

and donald, good luck with trying to steal it, he'll prob shoot us. he built a 3000$ comp. for it.

[Donahue]

FYI, the 30 spline outers need new everything from the knuckles out to fit. and they are made for the TJ/JK d44's.

pretty much all d44's are 30 spline inners and 19 spline outers, even the rear ends.

[Tim99Zr2]

well i bought my axle today, so i geared it, put the spool in, put the new hubs in, and took er wheelin.

it did pretty damn good, had to pull my friend out in his SAS dakota. and fvck turning when its in 4wd.! i need hydro assist

[bubbagt57]

[Baggey22]

If you weren't so damn small you might be able to turn the damn thing

And the rear seat looks good, I think it needs to be in the bed of the truck though.

[Tim99Zr2]

yea, im gonna have huge arms. hah

sorry i never take pics when i got wheelin

[bubbagt57]

unless you try to fit a tree in the bed?

[Tim99Zr2]

those pics were from AFTER wheeling.

[bubbagt57]

eh tomato tamato

[Donahue]

lockers + big tires = crappy steering.

i usually try and leave my front hubs unlocked when i can just to save my steering. i suppose you could leave only 1 hub unlocked but that seems a little funny.

Did you fix that rear axle seal yet??? Hows the gearing now?? Low enough??

I always wondered how mine woulda been with the 5.13's

[Tim99Zr2]

well i wrecked it. wasnt paying attention and drove into a culvert ditch that was like 4 ft deep, about 20 mph. didnt do anything except destroy my rear d shaft. soooo i had to drive home, on paved roads, with a locked front end... talk about shitty! 3 point turns at intersections FTL... good thing its 3 am


dave, 5.13s are nice i run the trails in 2nd or 3rd in low range. and it only took like 4 or 6 hours to do all the gearing / axle work. and im going to get a sealed bearing for the drivers side rear too. prob this week.

[bubbagt57]

pics of damage cuz thats the only pics we get to see here

[bubbagt57]

oh btw do you want 25 ones? cuz i think thats what im sending to piss you off.

[Tim99Zr2]

it'll just weigh more for you to send! hahaha. send what you want!

i may get pics, i gtg to "work" now

[bubbagt57]

[Tim99Zr2]

you're 21, what the hell does your parents have to do with anything? please dont tell me you live at home?

[Tim99Zr2]

yep, i do. something wrong with that?

even when i had a job i couldnt afford to live alone.

just giving you a hard time. i never moved back in with the parents, but i have sure spent my share of time living the my sister before i was married.

[wrekd]

Shit, Im 25 and still live with my parents

When I was 21 I landed a decent job and moved out for a year and a half. But then I got fired for doin some stupid shit and now Im back with my parents. Right now Im collecting and helping my parents out with the bills and focusing on going back to school. There aint shit for jobs around here right now. Which is why Im going back to school.

i know that. i cant even find jobs out of state.. all the welding jobs id want require 5+ yrs exp. and i only got 4... fvck that.! i NEED a job. i only make 288 biweekly now without benefits. versus the 1000 i was making, not to mention full benefits.

and my brother is messed up, could just be swollen glads or cancer (been chewing snuff for 10yrs), but his throat has lumps on it or in it.

not to mention my mom just went in for surgery today for a lump, and they couldnt remove it cause they thought it was cancer.

PLUS we cant sell our camp for some fvcked up reason.

all in all its been a shitty week for me.

[Tim99Zr2]

(cancer runs in my family) so they could have cancer, also they may not. my bro is prob just sick with strep throat or something? i dunno.


but the doc didnt like what she seen with my mom.

[wrekd]

Im pulling in $458 bi-weekly. No benefits and I'll be running out in September.The only jobs open around here are warehouse jobs and even they are far and few in between anymore. I fvcking hate warehouses, but thats probably where i'll be working, for like 8-10 bucks an hour, once my unemployment runs out. All I know is this school shit better pay off

[Tim99Zr2]

yea, my degree aint helpin me right now.. only welding jobs around here (if any) only want to pay 9$ an hr. fvck that.

my unemployment can last me up til like next apr / may... shit lasts over a yr now.
