What did you do with your truck/shop today

[DareDog]

Started waxing truck today. One fender done. Mothers wax.

No, that was a '92 RM125, brand spankin' new at the time too.

 

The Japanese must've found some LSD in their design wing that year ... Even back then those graphics were way over the top!

 

The front wheel to the right in the pic is a "Quadzilla" Quadracer LT500 - what a BEAST that thing was! Wasn't a sand hill too steep for that animal.

 

Damn, I have my 89 RMX sitting in pieces in my garage waiting for a new cylinder head lol. I started a resto few years back, almost had it completed till I got to the engine and took it apart only to find the cyl wall completely destroyed. A remanned one cost about $300 with shipping so I think about $500 and the beast will live again! Lol

Nice - always liked the X's for woods riding up here. I sold my '01 KDX220R a few years back - decided I'm just getting to old for off-roading on 2 wheels. Loved the power that thing had, plus the headlight, OEM o-ring chain, and sidestand. The woods up here are just too rocky and rooted. Wasn't bad when I was 17 .. but I feel it now, lol. I'm barely over 5' tall so that plays into it too - I've got to work harder than the rest of the guys do. I've been spoiled with my Sportsman 800 the past 10 years I guess.

I discovered a new low speed grinding type sound coming from under the truck. I hope it's just a low fluid level in the transfer case but considering the state that poor thing is in already it may already be beyond hope...

I damn near lost the rear end yesterday. Issues with u bolts.

Someone wash my truck

Someone wash my truck

It is called paying $40 and having someone wash it at a local place

[00Silverado4x4]

I haven't even washed mine so...lol

 

Although it does need to be vacuumed out.

 

I topped off the transfer case last night and looked like my "grind" is gone. Still working on getting a replacement all the same.

Was it you that put new ones on recently?

[Chris]

Yes. This one was completely on me. I stopped to get homework done and was most likely an oversight by me. It is all good now. Downside is, Josh was in the truck when shit went south. Had to take him back to LAX in an Expedition and now that thing wont start. So maybe he is just bad luck. DON'T LET JOSH NEAR YOUR VEHICLE

Not sure whether I feel sorry for you for the spring issue or having to drive an Expedition.

 

I guess it could be both.

Actually the Expedition is nice. It is loaded, smooth, comfortable, and quiet.

[Jsdirt]

But, did you reach your destination before it completely rusted out?

Inland CA, a Yugo couldn't even rust here

[Jsdirt]

This is true .. but it is a Ford Expedition ... LOL.

 

Just screwin' around.

 

Out here those things rust so fast it amazes me. I just did rear brake lines on an '04. The rockers are nearly gone on it. A buddy of mine sold his '02 for $800 - he paid $14k for it 5 years earlier - there was nothing left of it.
