Not Another CTOR Build


the only TRS sticker i had was the Feb. OffRoad TOTM sticker i got when i won for my Explorer, but the explorer is probably a cube by now (it got recycled after i finished parting it out earleir this week) and i have spent every $$ i have getting the truck ready for this weekends Pig Gig

actually its probably in little pieces-padnos runs car bodies though a shredder. :)

yes broke both RF ball joints and the axle shaft, damaged the fender as well

my own stupidty, i knew better then to try and strap someone while in reverse, never make that mistake again
 
should of got a pic of you washing the knuckle off in the creek
 
the steering arm connecting the adj sleeve on the left to the right spindle is bent as well
 
heres my axle shafts after the pig gig, notice what is missing on the short side

yes the pic sucks, get over it
 
the little stub spline came right out with a magnet. So i got the frt axle back together. Fixed an elec prob i had. I also figured out how to get it onto the trailer that i have here. Unfort it involves stock rims and 235/75 tires to clear the side rails. But i am still in need of two more Stock f150 rims for the rear axle to get it on the trailer

I layed a bead of weld in the neck down area, just enough not to touch the seal as it slides past, have to see what that does
 
I took the doors off it today and I LOVE how much more vision it gives me while wheeling. I can see everything. And my doors are light enough to where i can unbolt and bolt them up on my own. I then took my old mirrors and attached them to the fender so i can still use them.
 
well i busted both my shafts again, both at the neck down. I also bent the tie rods pretty bad.



But when i get it home, its parked till i build/buy a roll cage for it. I watched a buddy endo his explorer today without a cage. I am done playng without being protected
 
I just saw those pics of chesters rollover....id say the same thing
