i know theyre alittle big for a d44 but i might have a good deal on some 38.5x12.5 tsl's from family. hes been in colorado for a while and when he moves back here after finishing in the army in a few months he is getting something wider since its more mud here.
but looks like ill be running 33s til then unless i find a good deal on 36s. its gonna be like riding a tractor with those low gears until then

Lol yea really. Top speed on 5.39 and 33s. A whopping 14 miles an hour lol
ill be the guy chirping tires in 3rd gear lol
well got a couple updates. my laptop hasnt been working right so havent had alot of time on here.
anyways we were gonna do my sas last week and it got put off for another month because we couldnt find anyone to let us borrow their welder, other than an arc welder which my buddy isnt good with (and i cant weld at all).
so he went back to colorado and is moving back here in the next month and should be bringing his welder with him.
other than that all i have done with my truck for the past month is break a motor mount while mudding. i replaced that, and then yesterday i finished my cowl induction snorkel. no pics but im sure you know what they look like.....
oh yeah, and i think i fried my EEC. so between that and my alignment being off enough for me to notice my tires being eaten up, i wont be driving it too much for the next month. my new computer should be in sometime early next week.

haha i knew it! all i have is 2 pics. one of my motor mount after i got it out, and one of a powerstroke that got stuck mudding. took 4 fullsize trucks hooked together to get him out.
want those pics? haha
well i had a couple random pics.
after playing in the mud: (took it pretty easy with no 4wd and then my motor mount broke)
my motor mount:
a pic of the stuck powerstroke:
and a teaser of my front axle:
thats all i got. and with the front axle i still need to replace the wheel bearings and get a new set of hubs. one wont unlock and the other is missing a piece and wont lock. other than that its mostly ready.

adjusted my timing the other day got it running alittle better. other than that not a whole lot going on lately.
had a bad rain last night. little did i know when i did the cowl snorkel, it was still right at the seam of the fender. i went to start it and it cut back off. so i cranked it back over. got it started and it was running like crap so i looked under the hood.
there it was water trickling out of my airbox.
scared the poop outta me. so i pulled the plugs and cranked it over. whew! that was a close one lol

welded my auto hubs on saturday. no more broken hubs for the little bit of time i still have ttb!
so yesterday i couldnt resist sticking her in the poop. it was great having 4wd back. only got stuck once. but did spent the greater part of the evening trying to get a jeep out who tried my ruts. he got cocky with his new lockers and dug hisself deep. and with the retard unibody and no room behind to pull, we had to use the hi lift as a winch. it took forever.
