Oswego's Build

[PSU Taco85]

Got passenger side done last night. NAPA near me only had one bearing.

Tonight is the driver side - already got the other bearing.



This is true, except I would never get behind the wheel of a speedGAYblue truck

just admit it, you would need directions on how to use it mr autocraptic tranny

Swapped thirds with a local guy who had a ARB RD129 locked rear.
Still need to wire up the ARB high output compressor that came with it before I am locked.


Waiting on sPOD & some other goodies to deliver any day now.

Rebuilding a Warn M8000 winch I got for free - new motor and misc parts due any day now.



New 102" whip antenna mounted - was talking to a guy in New Orleans a couple weeks ago.

New headlights sitting in boxes here waiting to go in.


Finally ordered the second strap I need from BudBuilt for my gas tank skid.

Replaced my 48" Hilift shaft with a 60".


and actually drove it a few weeks ago to go camping


Looking into cat back exhausts now because my muffler is developing holes & my radio blew out weeks ago so I'm looking to get a new one but no one makes them with the outdated options I want.

No engine is still not fixed or swapped

I wish you told me that you needed the straps for the Bud Builts - I know when we shipped that motor, we had both of those straps in the shop.

I'll take those straps if they're still around, I've not yet come up with s good way to mount a gas tank skid without them

I'll check to see if they are still there and how much, if anything, he needs to let them go.

No biggie. The BB straps are stronger anyway and I already have one - just ordered the second. Ive had the skid for years now and never had it mounted. It's time to start completing 'some' of my projects.

Hey Boyd, are you looking for an OEM radio?

Shoot me a PM if you're looking for one.

 

[Anathollo]

Has the engine swap happened yet?

 

[SecretSquirrel]

Nope, still polishing a turd

Sadly a stock radio won't work, but thanks anyway.

Looking for a single din CD player (YES CD - I want real music not that digital phone crap or Pandora) that has rear pre amp outputs for my amp/sub and has a rear aux input for my Sirius. All the radios these days have face mounted inputs and that's just silly to me. I don't want wires hanging down all over. My old POS Kenwood had all those options + it had a rear aux input via USB that I put a cable to and anyone could hook up to.

Nah.... it still runs and drives fine. It is getting louder though.

meh...... even with a screwed up engine I still get out

I have a single din Kenwood CD player with Sirius if you want it. It came out of my old truck, never had any problems with it. I still buy CDs too.

Does it have the above options I want? Sirius is internal w/external receiver?

I became a hater of Kenwood after this radio screwed me over so I'd have to think about it. The CD player never worked and I found the 2 button operation of it retarded. If I wanted the volume up I had to push the button up.....not turn it. Same thing for radio stations - had to push not turn. Who the hell puts two knobs on a radio and has them turn, but not to control volume or channels?

 

[Mauzer]

I have an old Pioneer DEH-6800 if your interested

Yes, and I still have the sat receiver. It's a flip face with CD player behind. It treated me well. If you decided you want it it's yours.

Thanks for the offer!

Heck yea Ill take it. You need anything? Ive got tons of parts sitting around.

Also spring camping with the kids is a go. Talked to my sister at Thanksgiving and she said I can take them into the woods because their father is a pussy and won't take them camping. I want to get them out on a lake kayaking or canoeing as well

Sounds good. I was taking to the wife about it a couple of weeks ago. I also have a friend who might be in too with his son.
