Badass dood, Dont kill that fuggin ram before you get it back to my house . You replace the steering pump ? All the hoses and **** for steering done too ??? Im stoked for you man

Whats it going to take to get the front driveline sorted ? Offset Tom Woods Ujoint I love those things :****:

 

[lay]

yeah im at the airport now so you dont have to worry about me killing the ram , when i get back to town friday im taking it up to nathan and letting him redo my floor and some other little something special so it will be ready to ride hopefully the first weekend in april "in primer" uke: but **** it im ready **** a camera youllm see it soon enough and p i think a offset ujoint will work perfect or maybe a grinder the hoses and pump are all sorted out

 

[lay]

Answered per phone conversation...

PS here's the pics I took 2 weeks ago of it sitting on the ORI's and with the ram mounted

( its getting a Hardline Custom 60 stinger ram guard like mine and Matt's has , Lay has it again doing other little things and him and I both been outta town to damn much lately )


This thing is going to have an awesome setup, if it were me I'd set it up just a touch tall and get full advantage of all the up travel

Looking real good to go out this coming up weekend for its shake down ride finally ! Today I built the steering ram guard, battery box mount, welded his blingin ass tool box / cooler rack that he bought and customfabboy did , put a rear limit strap on it and all sorts of other stuff.

saw this thing up at a good friend's shop the other day...pretty good lookin rig...needs some new h2's though! haha

Yep, Lay has no tools so this thing has been passed around alot from place to place. I gotta give him props though he wants it bad and its finally ready for some shake down and then a teardown for paint and all that detail stuff. He'll be happy he stuck it out once its all said and done. Kinda reminds me of back in the day when I did a SAS on my S10 and didnt own a welder and most the work was done outside during a KS winter in gravel. :****: Anyway, just goes to show if you want something bad enough you'll figure out a way to have it !

BWAHAHAHAHA :****: Thats funny right there, you guys all make fine points though

Anyway Lays buggy update last night... pulled seats out welded harness tabs , then made some brackets to hang / hold his water lines ( rad in the back ) Went to put it on the trailer last night and it wouldnt fire... He said it had done it before and all that so I started trouble shooting it and found the short wire harness that goes from the coil to the distributor is jacked up so repaired that and sent him on his way. He'll be riding the rig this weekend so thats pretty cool He better change that got damn stuurin pump ASAP though that burned up thing is driving me nutz, Matt O , sell him that **** you got from Greg laughing1

 

[wontwork]

I am just overwelmed that Lay has built a rig with no welder or any kind of fab skills at all. :****:

That is gona be a nice rig when it gets all bolted down. Maybe his bad luck will go away and he can ride all day on the trail.

 

[Got Coal?]

That thing has got more hours on the trailer than in the shop. Ready to see that puppy run this weekend.

Congrats Lay! Buggy looks very nice man. Shack that bish down and get it dialed in.
