Carpenter ants… Whomever named them has a sick sense of humor.

Sure was… Best part is the flammable/inflammable sticker. 😂

Snagged this off ksl for the shop. The actual “work” involved (besides driving to Hyrum to pick it up), was dragging it 100’ through the guy’s backyard that still had 6” of snow. If I had known it’s location, a sled would’ve been ideal. 🤷‍♂️ Instead, my nephew and I strapped and drug it out...

I know a decent amount, but only because I looked at possibly buying a Kodiak about a year ago. I ended up going with the updated version which has some similarities, but more modern cab, drivetrain, and misc. features. However, they have their own set of issues, with emissions/DEF systems at...

This one will have a Dmax and 6spd. Allison. That was pretty much the standard with earlier ones having the 5spd. Allison. There are a few out there with the 8.1 gas motor as well.

I hear ya… I was replying while in line getting food, so I didn’t exactly cover all the bases. 😂 The cool thing is that if a competent fab shop does the work, he really has multiple options for both axle and tcase. Also @H-K, since you’re scoring a killer deal on the purchase price, consider...

Yes, but many guys doing conversions are opting for the Super 60. Meritor or 271 could be used, depending on which you find first or for the better deal.

I may not know every aspect of what you’ll need to address, but I do know quite a bit about the parts and have a physical representation of what the end goal should look like. Front axle is a pretty common “Super 60” with tierod behind the axle and tcase is divorced. Get familiar with Meritor...

I’m not exactly close by, but you’re welcome to borrow my case if you find yourself on I-15 around RMATV at some point.

Problem is, not only do I admittedly have a new 5x5 spare, but I also have an entire deck of planks, unlike some people. 😉 Security has just been enhanced at my place, so…

Indeed, like from a dramatic film. Perhaps a tragedy? 😂 Let’s find out in Sand Hollow next weekend. ✊🏾

I picked up a new Michelin front bib yesterday. Noticed a pretty good price increase compared to my last one. Still totally worth it, but it’s interesting to see which items are affected by prod. cost, materials, inflation, or any number of other factors currently. 🤷‍♂️

That’s because you plan ahead, as do I. I’d bet most Big Tex 5-lug owners wouldn’t share your love of 5x5 when broke down with no spare or having multiple blowouts. 😂 Everyone from Tractor Supply to most tire shops rarely stock ‘em.

Classic… I dropped off my 5x5 spare for a new tire at a local tire place recently. The next day, they tried to give me someone else’s 5x4.5 trailer tire (same style 15” white wagon wheel). It all got sorted out, but if I wasn’t expecting a mistake, both myself and the other guy would have...

Great buy for sure, congrats! Just in case nobody has mentioned, you’re now in the exclusive 5 on 5 bolt pattern club. 😂 Not a major deal, but get a spare if you don’t have one already, as chances are low you’ll find one to buy or borrow when in a bind.

Welp, that’s it for the shop wood stove project. Installed the last of the chimney pipe, cap, custom roof brace, and got a test burn in progress. 🔥

He just barely lowered that monster truck 5”, now is not the time for portals. 😳

I have nothing to contribute that hasn’t already been discussed, but will someone please make a meme of Ralph from the Simpson’s saying “I’m going to tack mountain!”. 😂

Thx man. 😎 Mental illness comes in many forms and varying amounts. 😉

Your words hurt Chad…. but it’s mostly true. 😂
