"Post your biggest, baddest,coolest,or most insane thing your rig underwent in 05"

I am pretty sure the most insane thing my rig went through was the $3.26 per gallon gas of '05 :mad:

<><Fish
 
I wheeled twice all year... Once over memorial day at Paragon with a holly 650 carb. Then again last week at URE with a GM TBI (Throttle Body Injection) swaped on.

Im just prepairing for next year :flipoff2:
 
Currie J arms and outboarding the shocks by notching the frame. In my mind the notching of the frame was the point of no return so I am glad it worked out. ;)
 
bought my rig and promptly performed a front cv axle removal at the top of daniel.... i seem to be in a mad dash to gather parts right now but they're coming together nicely... been looking about a month and so far have my tranny , secured the purchase of a motor, wiring harness, ecu, disc brake kit for the rear axle... now working on buying the axles themselves :D 2006 is gonna be a VERY BUSY year
 
Not much...bought truck ('78 F-150), ripped off the bondo-bed, yanked the 3" pipe body lift (left the 4" suspension, sold the 31's (!) on it, bought some 35" M/T's, swapped out the 4-bbl, new poly body bushings, bought step side bed & given another (rough), installed factory 67-72 F-100 bucket seats, & gave away a lot of the disco parts yanked off of it (double tube bed bar, grab handles, hoop steps, etc.)......

Now on to the straight header exhaust fix......

umm took mine apart and put it back together multiple times, went through like 26 rigs this year :flipoff2:
 
I'm with Yager! While I only got to wheel 5-6 times this year.... things are looking up for '06.

Maybe we all should post pics of our trash sitting in the driveway to make Hodie feel better?... NAH! :flipoff2:

i think mine would be the love marks on the hood from mazer and the wiffle ball bat! mazer the mighty midget always there for the homies!
 
I'm not even sure I changed the oil this year, but I put a new clutch slave cyl on, put window unit air in, but I think the best mod was adding power steering. And John, You put urethane bushing on the steering rack, new shocks on the front, bled the brakes and changed the tranny fluid.
 
4 to 1's on the t-case, frame stretch, tub change, becomming a Ready Welder Dealer, a lot has happened this past year.
 
My best investment ever.....
