Swampy go fast

It feels way colder than 21 outsid right now.....I just put the trans shifter on and I was ready to pull it inside the basement but........It won't clear the woodstove. I guess I'm gonna run to town and get the pipe and fittngs to move the stove over so I can get the truck inside.

I got a trans cooler and my steering hoses today....

Did you find the linkage and bracket for the trans end of that shifter cable?

Yea I found it all and it's installed and working. well kinda installed. The shifter works but it's not mounted to the floor yet
 
Finally got the truck inside.....I've got lots of work to do
 
I'm almost finished with the wiring mess that I had....
I have to run out to my dad's to get some AL that I scored the other day so I can make my trans tunnel and backing plate for the trans cooler:driver:
 
1350 drive shaft ends....spicer joints and straps
Hydraulic hoses for steering

And yes I welded some tabs in so the fan it's below the tube. I might add a hoop there to protect it a little more
 
I think that I'm going to use this to make my grill....now all I need is some emblems......toyota..chevorlet..how about toylet?

I hope to get a good amount done tomorrow:
plumb in trans cooler lines
finish wiring
install steering hoses
mount front bumpstops
make bracket to mount speedway motors ps resv
Make bracket so I can use the stock throttle cable
Build trans tunnel
figure out where I'm going to tap the intake for my vacume boot brakes (there are no vacume ports on my carb or intake) Holley 750/elderblock Victory

I'm also going to build a strorage compartment in the back of the frame for straps and such. Maybe even a provision for a cooler.
 
I had a lot of plans for the day but didn't get shit done. I was just burnt out from yesterday and decided to go ride my bike. I'm pretty tired........I ate shit about 10 or 15 times trying to 360 a 12' table top in granite. I'm going to be sore tomorrow.
 
Said jumps are behind Captin's Galley in Granite. I think the land belongs to Day 3 Church. yesterday was the first time I've been out there. The jumps needed some grooming....didn't seem like they had been hit in a while. I might take dad's tractor out there and build a berm so I can get more speed to clear the table.
:flipoff2: Your Kona Stretch..... I've been rocking the 20". I haven't touched my Azonic in months.
 
I didn't do much this evening but I did get most of the trans tunnel finished......I still have to weld some sheet metal on the inside of the square tube to seal it off from heat and such. I'm also going to add a removable access panel for the shifters.

I've been following this build and haven't had any input. I think your doing a hell of a job even though the 11 degree weather is puting a hinder on time frames but I had to say my father and I laughed our ass of about the Toylet. Keep up the good work and hope to see it on the trails.:driver:

I've seen Chevota a few times so I figured I'd go with something else
 
ehhh idk
 
I welded the trans tunnel in tonight.....I was high as a kite from the welding painted sheet metal fumes...no kinda good. The shifter is mounted and I might have a broken toe. I dropped my angle grinder on said tow and it hurts like hell.
 
hahah...I was half asleep when I typed that....Thanks for busting my balls
