I think he is either working or on vacation. I know he is on vacation right now. lol

 

hard at work..or hardly work'n. i know my guess

 

Vacation -- It was Brentons bachelor party. He is taking the plunge next weekend.

ahh no many updates Ive been working 6 days a week 10-12 hour shifts for the past three months..pretty much since Ive been back since the dunes..

I sent zach the steering shaft parts but I am lacking the E250 shaft and cant find out for the life of me..

I orderd the PS steering hose..The truck is coming back to my house in the next week or so -- so I can work on it in the evening since the weather is starting to get nice in the evening.

 

Brenton..man we do not speak of

 

lol First he sold his ranger next he signed his life away. haha

 

there is no way this is the same damn truck that pulled me out a billion years ago at rancho

 

Haha it is -- since is I'm in here might as well update. Nothing has been done. Haven't touched it. It's just been sitting in the driveway. I have been on the road traveling with work for the past eight weeks or so.

That's all I gotta say about that.

 

When does it head north? Or still waiting for time?

 

Time. I am out of town just about every week until 2012

 

make time..dont let the man bring you down!

 

Haha thanks Andy. It will be done one day. I'm keeping it. Little by little.

 

****it, Just do this.

 

nice lift ^^^

Little update:

I bought some used steering parts from Beard, with him going to full hydro, I purchased a steering shaft, steering box and pitman arm from him. I got that installed Wednesday. Hooked up all the power steering hoses. I have the drag link and joints in hand. I just need to take the measurements and get it cut along with welded and steering is complete.

Next step is mount the radiator and efan which I have at the house. Run the power cables to the rear to batteries. Then I can turn her over and see what she sounds like after 2 years of sitting (kinda nervous)

I need to check to with beard to see what master cylinder I need ( i think its a 90s 250 with CC) which would be the only thing I need for brakes.

Its all the little things that are left minus rest of the tube work. I am off the week between Christmas and New years. I am hoping to get a lot done that week but we shall see :)

I will get some pictures when I get home from VA.

 

If you don't get stuff done Santa isn't coming for Christmas.

 

Santa is coming but is going to be bringing stuff for a house not truck parts :)

 

come on, truck > house

everyone knows that..then you just get a trailer. pow. american dream

 

Add fluids and she's gunna crank. Also need the master cylinder.

 

Dang, just read through the whole build. Bada$$ truck. I leave for Germany in a few days for 2 weeks, just take that stuff of your truck and put it onto mine I'll drop it off this weekend, lol! On a serious note, you aren't that far, when it's done I'd like to come see it!

 

Any updates Evan? Have you gotten it running yet?

 

I thought I saw him say he was selling it?

 

That was a while back. I know shortly after Beard said he would finish it and then I think Evan said he was going to finish it.

 

I think he changed his mind. I believe Beard is going to help him as well

EDIT: Adam is too fast

 

Haha that changed. Beard got engaged. I was to busy to take it to him...

It cranks, under the hood is complete..just missing brakes,finish cage few other things but pretty much done..needs front shafts. Needs rear gears and brakes..

6500 bucks takes it all amend gets TONS of parts..over 1200 bucks in front Dana 60 components, 500 dollar front plated winch bumper,warn winch,truck bed if wanted,shaved tailgate with LEDs..

 

I would seriously consider buying this later this year after I have a full time job, I want to make my Ranger an offroad rig. This would save a lot of work

But I'd rather see you finish it
