   X2 on the mud shot!

Thanks,  I've been gathering some parts for this build right now.  Danger Dave came through with a trans for BB 4x4 that will need a rebuild and a few other odds and ends.  I tried to get his heater box out of one of his RC's but had some stubborn bolts that didn't want to give up.     Started to get dark on us and figured to try it again on another day.  May have to do some cutting.    

A friend of the family bought an old country store with some new in the box auto parts but no part # books.   I was able to pick up a couple of back shocks and some spare fuel filters for a cheap price.  Had a ton of Wix air filters and oil filters but without a book it was a crap shoot.  Looked them up online and on my next trip out there hopefully I can score some filters.  Same with belts, ujoints and seals.  Felt like I was in that show American Pickers.

I remember my truck throwing random leaves at me when I first got it.  A lot of guys install clean-outs for this.  I saw a video on YouTube the other day.  Might give you an idea.

That is one fugly vette.

Hey I see clouds and buildings in your paint.... really cool.   

When I open RCC, at the top of the page, it has 2 options:

1) show unread posts since last visit
2) show new replies to your posts

I really like these.  Can we do that here?

You never really finish working on these trucks so I figured I'd make a spot to show what's the latest news. 

I spent today installing the winch I purchased before Ram Jam 2012.  I had already extended the front bumper in preparation for this project.  I had purchased a SuperWinch 8500 with their matching winch mount.  I also purchased a roller fair lead to go with it.  Caught a really good deal on Amazon.com.  Never had a chance to install and it's been sitting on the sidelines while I spend most of my time with the RamCharger lately.  Well, to install means I needed to cut some more bumper.   

I measured and notched the bumper with my handy dandy don't wanna die Harbor Freight tools cutting wheel.  Best $20 bucks ever.  I had to re-wire it a couple of times but no biggie.  After setting it up in the new little cubbie hole, and bolting the winch and roller fair lead to the mounting plate, I discovered that I would not be able to drill some of the holes into the frame without removing the bumper.  After debating whether to remove the bumper (way too hot outside) or cutting the top lip off the bumper (faster), the cutting wheel won. I also had to notch where the license plate mounts so I had to drill a couple of holes to lower it a hair and a half.

It came out nice with the top lip gone.  Makes the bumper look flat.  Wired it up and drilled some holes for the mount plate and it was done.  I replaced the black bolts with some HD grade 8.8 stainless steel bolts that came with the kit.

   Man that thing looks sweet.  Great job Ryan!

   That was a strange one.  Looked like a van back end and truck front end.

Here's a couple of links that may help out.

I don't remember but I will look it up.  The more I think about colors, the more I like olive drab....

  Olive Drab and Willys naturally go together.
