It's not going to be easy, and I already miss Julie....but she would not want me to just sit around and not do anything.

You will pull thru.

I lost a good friend 3 years ago to stomach cancer, and it was devastating to myself, my family and our group of friends. We are actually going on a wheeling trip this next week in his memory.

My father in law is currently fighting liver cancer now also. That's is why I said F cancer.

I know it's terrible to think and say it gets easier, but it does. Time will help you heal, just be sure to pick the things you want to remeber about her and hold those close. I truly hope you the best. I know your on a rough road, stay strong.

Well. After everything that has happened in the last month I decided to finally start fixing the ranger. Gotta stay busy, keep my mind occupied.





New clutch, flywheel, and slave installed. My brother had to leave so I will have to wait until Wednesday to finish.

That's what I need to do, get motivated and get mine done. May shoot for 4th of July weekend to do that since I'm going to make it a 4 day weekend. Also need to invest into a fan for the garage.

Ranger is all back together. The new clutch feels so much better. It's almost like driving a new truck....well besides the steering problems. Going to disassemble the whole steering and see what is causing it to bind and squeak.

Made a trip up north to Bundy Hill on August 2nd. It was just me my son and Pat (sampson). Didn't get to crazy since I wheeled with a bad axle joint and a screwed up steering box and pump. Got a few more scratches and dents. Busted a tail light and bent both sliders. Almost punctured the fuel tank on a rock that I got stuck on top of. But in all it was a good day with no major damage.

Busted the tail light trying to make a 4 point turn. Not to bad, already replaced it with one I got from pick-a-part.

Tried out their RTI ramp




Overall didn't get to muddy. Tried to stay away from the majority of it.


Have a few videos on my phone I will get uploaded to YouTube. And a few pictures and videos from Sampson.

My snorkel build is somewhere in this thread. I haven't had time to make a shortcut link on the first post.
Didn't measure the distance on the ramp, just wanted to see what it would do.
