Josh40601's Build Thread. (D-ranged)

[Josh40601]

Well, its official... The deal for the new crawler has gone through...

Some of you might recognize it....

Here is a couple shots from the current owner. I will be picking this up the weekend i get home.

 

[Josh40601]

The day i get it home, 2 things will happen. A new hood will go on, and it will be sanded down and painted. To look like this....

It will stay uncut.

 

[Josh40601]

enough about the expo, back to D.

I got the 1350 cut down, now just have to take it and get the hole in the side welded up. Then hopefully next weekend i can take the truck up to Jordan's and get the crossmember/skid plate built.

Thought that was goin in the expo?

That's what I though to... If the ranger isn't gonna be a wheeler and is getting the 6.0 why put the doubler in it?

 

[Josh40601]

Ahh, I knew people would ask, so i planned ahead...

1. I will still be wheeling the Ranger out here in Cali until i leave
2. doubler and hydro steer are a must before hitting the Con
3. doubler will go into the explorer as well.
4. Because i already had it laying here, might as well put it together.

Ummm......no.





Cuz ThatGuy is gonna be rockin a black 97 V-8 Explorer with a 60 front, 14 bolt rear, rollin on 40s as a daily driver. At least my wife will be happy. Still hafta build another wheeler, prolly another zuk.

[Josh40601]

oh im sure with tons and 40s he'll be on the trails and at soccer practice

 

[ThatGuy]

I'll still be on the trails. Trevor (Foxracin) will make sure of that. I just hafta take it easy cuz the wife wants a "pretty" one. I used to co-own a shop that built zuks so I'd like to get another as a dedicated wheeler.

 

[Josh40601]

well That Explorer will definitely be on the trails. It won't really look like it does now, but with you being just right down the 75, I am sure you and trevor will be seeing a lot of it.

I've always wanted a Mall Crawler since i had my Grand Cherokee, and in 67 days, I will have one

 

[Josh40601]

BTW Brad, did you get my last email?

We got to go get the mountain whores somehow. Your new one on 40s with some 5% tint and a little boom boom on the mountain will get them running to us. Will definitely need a set of mall rated stickers though.
