    Morbid question: are Viking funerals illegal?

    Just do what I tell people I plan to do, have your remains scattered on a beach somewhere….. But don’t get cremated 😂

    Suzuki XL-7 build- “XL7-UP”

    22910-54J10 I found it on Partsouq. I was going to call Doug Smith Suzuki in AF this morning to see if they can by chance find it in the states too.

    Suzuki XL-7 build- “XL7-UP”

    Yep, just goes to the cooler and back. I’ll probably just do that and then zip tie it back to the mount.

    Suzuki XL-7 build- “XL7-UP”

    That’s true….but it comes from the UAE and has a long lead time 🤣 I’ll probably just order it, this things been sitting for almost a year, so another 3 weeks is doable.

    Suzuki XL-7 build- “XL7-UP”

    Engine and trans are mated. Noticed last night though that I apparently smashed this hard line for the cooler while pulling the old combo. New part is still available, but around $75-$100. I'm thinking about using some compression to AN adapters and just running flex lines to the cooler. Any...

    Is it ok to have a "make light of" thread?

    Fast people search, It’s fairly accurate. Couple that, along with the county assessor to verify who owns or lives there. That’s how I’ve bought some of my vehicles dirt cheap, when going and knocking on the door doesn’t work.

    Is it ok to have a "make light of" thread?

    You can actually pay to run a plate and find somebodies info. Legally, you’re only supposed to do it if you’re LE, or a tow company, that sort of thing. But it’s still doable.

    Single axle trailer refreshing

    Finally somewhere. Painted the other wheel and threw it on. 18” deck height at level, which I’m extremely happy with. The dove tail will definitely get a mitre cut to gain a couple more inches, along with some rollers welded on. I have some LED’s from my old samurai I’m going to incorporate...

    Single axle trailer refreshing

    Used some 3/8” thick spring plates I had laying around, with some new u bolts from oreillys. Mounted a tire, which sucked because the sidewalls on these are stiff as heck. Wire wheeled the alloy wheel and put down a coat of primer. Hoping to have the other wheel mounted and painted by this...

    The coyote or fox game

    Foxes are cool, until you here one of the females do their "vixen scream" outside your bedroom window at 3am. Thought some lady was being murdered in my yard.

    How would YOU build a highway-worthy, ultra-cheap 4x4 on 35s?

    I’m a fan of low COG builds. I think it depends on what all you want, passenger capacity, AC, etc. But if somebody gave me $5,000 to spend right now, here’s what I’d do. Stretched Sami, starting with this base (for sale by one the Conks from LowRange) Tube front clip, probably chop the back...

    Concrete Anchors for Heavy Tools

    I think they’re strong enough, just make sure to drill deep enough, and clean out your holes well. I like to vacuum the holes out and then blow out with compressed air. If you don’t, sometimes it’ll compact into the bottom of your hole and stop you from getting it sunk in all the way. They take...

    Concrete Anchors for Heavy Tools

    I like the lags like what Tonka posted. I’ve used redheads for years to hang AC brackets on concrete foundations. Home Depot also sells the same type made by tapcon in smaller quantities that of 6 or 10 I think. The nice thing is, you can simply unscrew them and patch later if desired.

    Suzuki XL-7 build- “XL7-UP”

    Thoughts before I weld it all up? I wish the headlight surrounds were lower, but I wanted to not inhibit my lights at all, plus, to be able to remove the headlights without pulling the bumper.

    Political I've gotten more texts... (Bewilder vs LDS church)

    Looks like the name has changed to CuraLeaf, but there was/is a “medical marijuana” dispensary in Provo called “Deseret Wellness” I wonder if they changed names due to a church thing too. Their website still has the original name though.

    Suzuki XL-7 build- “XL7-UP”

    More pipe…..erm… “tube” work on the front now. Just bouncing back and forth unable to finish one thing before I start the next I guess!

    Wanted 12v air compressor

    For those running these units, anybody piped one into a tank? Seems to me like having a couple gallon tank is handy if you have a place to mount it.

    Suzuki XL-7 build- “XL7-UP”

    First rear bumper side cap roughed in from 3/16. Need to weld all my relief cuts, then fill in the wheel well gaps, grind, and wire wheel. The other side should be easier now that I can see what direction to go.
