slow in the 'ol tech section...

[Vonski]

It's been mighty slow these days, I figure everyone is busy doin' Christmas stuff. Anyway, I'd like to see some pics of some cool mods ya'll have done. Doesn't have to be super high tech or anything. Include pics and a "why" and "how" you did it.

Each contributor will receive either a gold star for your forehead or a biscuit, whichever you prefer. Bonus points will be given for any modification where mass amounts of sawzalling was used.

I'd like to see a few pics of Carls project.


Anything else You got going on?

 

[Vonski]

I'll tell him to take Mr. Digital to work tomorrow and he can post a progress pic or two. As for other projects going on, I'll try to decide which of them might be more useful for people around here and submit something. Will we be seeing something from you?

 

[Caleb]

well I posted my progress in the gen4x4...but there isn;t much tech to it...just a good ole axle swap with a wheelbase chage at this point...hopefully within the next week I will start the motor swap and I will take lot of pics of that...

 

[Skyetone]

I'm putting new tread on her runner this week? Does that count?

Is a jig saw with 24T sheet metal blades considered OK?
I should have some pics coming either tonight or tomorrow night, depending on how far I get on my "project".

It's mostly 1.5" DOM, with a bit of 1.5" HREW and 1.25" HREW mixed in.

As a matter of fact, it IS going to be blue!! At least, the "body" sections will be.

Let see...

Something old: Got it.
Something new: Easily
Something borrowed: Yup, the winch will be stolen from Von
Something blue:

I guess I'm ready!

 

[Vonski]
