Re: Just recieved a TRANSFUSION!

Nice thing is you can't see the pinstripes down both sides. Titanium hides it well.

I saw this pic in another thread and thought "holy $#&! I hope this guy was SCUBA'd!" Glad to hear your rig survived to wheel another day!

I wasn't SCUBA'd in the pics but actually changed the rear diff the night before with some cheap crap mostly because I knew we were going to get wet. Next week she'll be SCUBA'd, transfused, and spot derusted on the frame and welds. Then the new Rasta skids go on.

If the fluids weren't contaminated before , after this past weekend I can almost guarantee that they are. Won't be doing gear oil changes until next week. My rigs not a daily driver. I'm going to have to spend a day on it and get her back in tip top shape.

Re: Just recieved a TRANSFUSION!

I hadn't seen that second pic of the long water fording; was that at Rausch and I missed it? Buffy would have been screaming had I gone through that!

Glad to hear your ride is all in one piece after so much fun. I'm going to do the breather mods too once the weather warms up enough to crawl underneath for an hour or two. Did you consider the Rasta sliders before you got those you've got? What are your thoughts on them?

Enjoy!
Jeff O'
