Quiet

Its been awfully quiet around here lately. Whats everyone up to? I'm trying to get ready for the summer. Got the oil, tranny, air, and fuel filters (and of course their associated oils) changed out. I need to get out for a few days.
I may just have to steal my dads boat for a few as well. See if I can go get some fishing done. Or at least drag the kids around the lake a little.
All I know is that I'm going loopy here.

I here you on needing to get out for a few days. Next weekend I am going out to Delle to do some four wheeling and just relax. Planning on getting a new exhaust at the end of the month, pretty excited about that. It has been pretty quiet in here though.

off topic but would like some local's opinions....
Anyone got a locker in the front? I'm contemplating a ARB or sometype of electric locker but don't know if I can afford it. What's everyone using and how do they work?

I haven't been able to do much of anything since this is my busy season(6 days a week, twelve hours a day).

Putting the L Back together. Polyurathane painted the Chassis. Had the Rear end out and Springs. Polyurathane painted them as well. Waiting for the New Lightning logo Headliner that should be here this week. Front end will be back on this coming weekend. ( The 25th). Also been working on the yard with the Wife. (What a pain).

I am FINALLY back in town! Wonder how long I will get to stay this time?!?!?!


Got to clean up the yard and garage this weekend. Hopefully I will get the new grille painted and installed along with new headlights and corners. Then I've got to get the new brakes and rotors installed, along with celaning the frame up and undercoating done. Then the bumpers come off for fiberglass, along with the center console and fabricating a new spoiler. Still have the interior to go, which I might have someone else do. After that - its off to paint.

Still haven't gotten my slab poured either...

I've got a 75'x21' slab to pour in the back. I figured it out to right at 20 yards. Got anyone you recommend for doing one that large?

yeah that's pretty big... have you graded it yet? What are your quality expectations? We could attempt it ourselves with a couple buddies if you are on a budget. Otherwise I'll ask around and see who people think are good quality and price.
