It is closer to TIO after I look at it. haha I can't get good Ray red, the crap they give us is orangish-pinkish-sorta-reddish. we just started getting some paint from valspar which is closer.
 
lookin good. you need to come wheel with us in the spring, when i get the new one done!

Nice color, paint is cheap too, if you got it at Tractor Supply.

yep!! after seeing that beast under your rig, I started looking. :beer: . I hope I get to try it out in a few weeks.
well this week I have been working out a few of the small things. trying to get it road ready this week. I think all I need now are some side mirrors for inspection.
paint is from tractor supply. 1 gallon 28 bucks, can of hardner I think is around 8 and a 50 dollar spay gun. I am please with my first spray job.
next addition will be 4.88 gears and selectable lockers of some sort. the 4.10's and welded spiders will get old quick. till next time, back to the basement I go..
 
riding

where/when do you plan to go out? are you capable of driving to the trail, or do you plan on trailering?

I got my tag today and have been getting it ready to drive on the road. Did a dry run today to the gas station and back and found a few issues- Alt not charging??? and its brand new.
Also it had a death wobble on one big dip in the road. caster might be a little off becaused I shimmed it up a little( it was worth a try). Anyway gotta figure this problem out quick that crap sucked...:eek: gonna to pull the shim and try again.
Started working on the cage and fenders tonight and ran out of welding wire. bummer. so I started plasing out some mounting plates.
The first wheeling trip will be the 10 -12 of Nov. at Uwarrie. It should be a nice test run and some camping.
