We’re all glad you didn’t get murdered. Did you see anything cool?
Honestly not really. Muratec had a hoppin booth as usual. Smart had prices on all their machines which was awesome. Wells-Index will sell you a brand new Bridgeport minus the head for $8k. So you can buy a worn out Bridgeport for $1500, scrap the casting for $200, rebuild the head for $500?, and have essentially a new machine for under $10k. They also have a really nice manual mill with a better head design that is made completely in the US, and it’s $35k complete and brand new.
I was thinking somewhere around Santee. Them stumps give it away. You better stay in the channel on Moultrie and Marion if you don’t know what you’re doing.
My old XJ is still kicking!!!
Is that a fj80 front axle?
Yes sir with a narrow 6 lug FF 14 out back. 4 speed Atlas splits the pow'r
Undergone a lot.of changes, but still killing it!
Cool. Something you definitely don't see too often. I've always wanted to build a very low ride height jeep tj with all Toyota running gear, motor, trans, t case and axles.
Just need to build something and get back out riding again.
Brad Barnes had a 4 cyl YJ a few years ago with Jeep 2.5 and AX5 adapted to Toy 4.7 case and mini truck axles. Cool rig for sure
Looked like my Dept the other night. No number on the fence, house located way off the road. All but 1 truck missed the driveway, 3 of us ended up in the woods past the house.
Around here in Harlan that is what the driveways look like normally with the address posted.
I met some of the local fire department guys when a neighbors house burned and they used my driveway to stage and turn around their trucks as they rotated the empty ones out for full. He said they would make note of where my house was and that they could go balls to wall up the driveway without worrying about finding a place to turn around up top once they got in there.
