[Uncle Cracker]

haven't heard anything in a while. any progress?

[Toy4xchris]

Not really Just started the new job between that and school been a bit busy.

Oh that and still having order issues. Speaking of which I think I need to email a company and see whats going on with my problem.

[Uncle Cracker]

don't waste time e-mailing or phoning, it'll just make you mad
wading through bullshit.
get stable with your new job, and take care of school.
next thing you know, parts will be there. probably the wrong parts,
but parts non the less.

[Toy4xchris]

Well one company actually did really well and shipped out the right parts instantly which was awesome will do business with low range off-road again.
The other company well ya probably won't go near again we will see if they ever get me the rest of my parts.

[Toy4xchris]

No what surprised me is it was Davez offroad I thought they would have better service but I was wrong

[Uncle Cracker]

haven't used "dave's" but haven't heard anything bad about them either

[Toy4xchris]

So still having issues with a certain parts vendor.. needless to say wont be dealing with them anymore.

On a good note got some other things taken care of and will hopefully be able to slowly start forward progress on the truck again.

[Toy4xchris]

Ordered some DOM sleeved bushings to build my t-case x-member and ordered a front axle brace through another company since the other one doesn't seem to want to answer calls or inform me on any status.

Man that sucks. Any way to cancel the order?

[Toy4xchris]

seeing as I got everything minus that and a few nuts I am just thinking about cutting my loses cuz I have tried calling and emailing and it's not worth the headache anymore for 25 bucks or what ever it was

well it's good to see you re back on this forum, at the top, and getting something accomplished

[Toy4xchris]

So new direction on some stuff hopefully gonna save a few pennies up and order a propane conversion for the truck.

[Toy4xchris]

So nothing special but I got laid off for the day because my current job sucks. That is ok though cuz I just scored a new job that will make more money and no more working weekends.

But here is a some updates just mocking some stuff up and still need to redo the front of the frame so I can get the panhard in but here's some pics.
Had to cut the mount to fit around the sliders tubes

[Uncle Cracker]

did you move the front axle forward?

i moved my rear 6" forward and my front 9" forward

[abendx]

Looking good Chris... sorry to hear about the job.

[Toy4xchris]

I am moving the front axle forward cant rememberthe exact amount off the top of my head though.

Brad the old/current job sucks anyways... The new one will be way better actually working for people that care about the employees.

[Dirty LJ]

Glad to see progress again!

Cant wait till you get it on the trail!

[abendx]

Looking good Chris.... you better hurry up, I should be done soon and will need another BRC member close to cuddle with.

Of course... you talk the talk, we'll see if you walk the walk.

Obviously, not a necessity... they took me. Charity to the retard, but whatever.... we don't yet have a token, so you might still have a spot.

Oh it wasn't that traumatic. You pretty much begged for it. Took all the fun out of initiation.

Well... when I found out a perk of being in the in club was free rein on fondling some over grown male tities.... I was determined!

You just can't put barriers up between me and heavenly shit like that.
