im good, i should have my hub on and hopefully my manual tcase in by then, if not o well haha. still need a spare. ill have a chain and a 30k rated strap with me and my gas can. we'll see what i do or dont break.

 

hmm i wouldnt recommend chains

 

its just a back up, ive used it many of times. its always with me. i know chains are bad..but its never left me down yet. ha.

 

They see you using a chain and your out of the park.

Leave it at home.


Oh and I'm still in.

 

Ive got a 3x30 strap with woven ends whats the best way to hook it to my tow hooks in the front?

 

you can use a shackel or pull inside of itself

 

i'll show you how to use it without a hook.

 

I was thinking just weave it through both of the hooks but since its so think its kind of a pain. Its ok to use a shackle?

 

if it has a high rating then yeah... my shackles are rated for 5 tons

 

Mine are 3/4 not sure the rating.

 

well either way i have my strap, ill just buy another one for back up. Anyone know where to get shackles, the tractor supply by me doesnt have ones big enough

 

Im looking for some online now.

 

I have alot of pics of my rig at comps and just wheeling and wrenching check it out here Photo Sharing by MyPhotoAlbum.com :: Dennis's MyPhotoAlbum

Soon or later i'll get rid of this Stupid TTB and chuck it out the window and throw in my set of full width axles i am building as i speak. As much as i beat on this xploder im verry lucky my Beams have not yet cracked HUH ED (LOL WE WON"T GO THERE HUH ED) Should be able to lay off gas this run and slide over the rocks. LOL It will be a test run with my new duibbler installed. Just waiting for front drive shaft to be made longer just gave my pal the round tune to me it longer. should be done this weekend. Fuel cell will be here 2morrow and will be able to bolt that on and hook up. I need to run down to pa and get my D44 so i can start building that 1 too.

Yea I have a shackle on each corner and 4 spares. So I think I have us covered.

2x30 strap (older one so it needs replaced)
2 tree savers
1 winch
1 48" hilift

 

Who wants to follow?

 

MEEE can i can i Please think i can do it with dubbler ed? You know i will awiles try something even though if i do need a tow truck we got the trailer take her home and fix then come out and play again.

 

Trust me guys from my own EYES

Ed is a real great person and his rig can do pretty much alot of stuff that we prob wont be doing at RC this event. Running with Ed will teach you how do do stuff that you may not have the answer. Eds been doing this since we was a little boy he's not an old man but older . He knows what he's doing and with he will help everyone there. Im going to try to make it as well to help but my rig is still on blocks till i get her done. You guys should have no problems to woryy we will have a good day/s

i have a strap, tree saver, two 5 ton shackles, 48in Hi-lift jack, and one spare lol... Well i hope we all have a good time im sure we will, this will be my 4th time at RC and i learn more and more about what my truck can do, so im stoked for this run!

 

I'll give the rocks a shot. But I really don't want to be towed home.

 

All I have as far as straps now are the ones with hooks and the ends. I'll see if I can get my hands on a full material one

 

Any of you want an Explorer OHC? I got one but too scared to cut into the headliner of my '08 haha It's black and gray, I could bring it down if someone wants it.

And I need one of you guys' phone # for once I get there I know where your parked.

 

Seb, I'll take the OHC. Just let me know what you want for it and I'll bring it with me.

Also I sent you a PM with my cell number.

 

Would you give 40$ for it? Has the clip w/ lots of wiring, bracket, temp sensor and all screws.

Thanks for the number

 

40 sounds good to me.

 

Seb you got a 302 crate engine by any chance? lol
