Thanks Guys!!! I appreciate it I had an extra Flag on the 4th and I was happening to put the new headliner in and thought it would be a great unique way to share the love! not to mention it really pops with the red seat belts!! I haven't gotten any work done this week....but hoping next week I can get the brakes situated and gas tank so I can take her out for a spin!!!


Gary the Livewire wires are pretty sweet they are a little short though to be honest they come numbered but I might move them around and change the numbers so they can fit better and be a little cleaner!


Quick question would anyone happen to know what size hose normally goes to the overflow from the radiator? Also I was hoping to get some help from yall for a stereo setup not sure if the retro ones are any good and I don't really want to put the one on roof or glove box....

Sounds very nice. I like how the pipes are hid away a bit too. I can see black marks in you future.

Brian thanks! I appreciate it.

Baja as always thanks very much they do have stopping power but the pedal feels mushy when the truck is on but when it's off there's plenty of pressure maybe I'm not used to power disc brakes lol I am really happy with the way she is turning out. Have a small exhaust leak right now got to find and I'm replacing the seal on the gearbox pain in the ***! Have to mill the rotor hub diameter because my front wheels don't sit flat any more. Next cut the springs slightly to straighten the camber put the gas tank in and break her in real nice how has the baja been coming along?

We've been taking a drubbing from Tropical Storm, what ever its name is, and the worst is promised for tomorrow...

So the trucks coming along pretty nicely! I suck at making sure I hop back on here to give updates but I never get any notifications that someone replys...

But anyways I moved pig-pen up and down the street a little bit testing out the new gas tank. So I haven't seen anyone with the LMC GAS TANK so I went ahead and got it and figured I could be the dummy to test it out. Overall it's decent quality seems a little thin but it fits pretty well. I did have to cut the support bar slightly for it to fit on one side. I had to ditch my initial idea of routing my filler, there just wasn't enough room to make the kind of bend I needed. So I decided to go straight up but instead I had it go through my 5 gal tank and look like it is just thrown in there. It works for me since It's not really built to haul anything.

I just got in my powertrax grip pro last night but still need to get the overhaul kit. I couldn't find any real reviews on it or installs so once again I thought I'd check it out. So that will be coming up soon!

I replaced the turn signal switch because the lights were going crazy! I made my own personal overflow bottle for the radiator. Plus a ton of other details but.

Overall things are coming together but there's alot of details I still need to work out but she is pretty much able to get back on the streets! Here's a few pictures.
