    2002 Jeep TJ "Baa Baa"

    Will do Brother. I don't mind a Bronco tagging along at all. It'll give me a chance to finally use the new winch :P

    Beachcomber's Tales from the day

    Beach!!! Glad to hear from ya Man! And while I'm certain you've figured this out already... never Flirt with Bowel Cancer! Sure she sounds mysterious and exotic, but in the end she's really just a huge a pain in the ass! (kind of a triple double entendre there :P)

    2002 Jeep TJ "Baa Baa"

    Ian Johnson from Four Wheeler took a JKU and did similar. Cut it in half, installed a 2 door cab kit, and grafted a Gladiator bed to it. I'd like to do something like that but with a simple box bed and flat fenders. And put a DV8 M715 front end kit on it. Kind of combo of these two...

    1994 Cheyenne

    lol, I know right?? One day I plan to pull all the panels I can, and clean, prep, and paint them one color. But for now, I can live with it. Thanks for the kudos Guys. Definitely enjoying having a truck again.

    Thrown about $3k at the truck over the last 6mos. Still have a few nitpicky things I want to change, but all the big purchases are done.

    1994 Cheyenne

    Picked her up back in February, with what we suspected was a bad head gasket. After teardown it was determined that both heads were trashed. Sourced a reman set from Summit and reassembled/refurb'd. Took care of a few minor issues, did a bunch of cleaning, and added some upgrades. And after...

    2002 Jeep TJ "Baa Baa"

    Finally made it to Hot Springs Off Road Park. Highly Recommend it. We spent over eight hours on the trails and still only hit about 1/3 of the trails we were capable of riding. We were also out there solo, so we didn't get adventurous with trails we're not really rated for. Being solo kept us...

    Mike, I misspoke. I ended up with this one from eBay because it was cheaper than Amazon. (I was six pages into Amazon purchases before I remembered :P) https://www.ebay.com/itm/144902958048?hash=item21bce3abe0:g:WLsAAOSw5mljxLYM

    Levi, not a bad exchange... considering the use you'll get out of it. And I can relate to the Red Vehicle Curse. I have never actively sought out a red vehicle but have ended up with 9. Silver comes in second with 6. And to stay on topic... recently picked up a bike stand... Bro' had been...

    '11 GMC Sierra 2500HD - Tow Mule & Travel Vehicle

    Dude! Nice ride ;) On the headlights though... Rubbing Compound and Carnuba Wax. I just polished out the haze on the Sentra's headlights today, as I've done every 4-5 years since it's purchase. Cleans them up to 'like new' status. I have to admit, new fixtures will last much much longer. But if...

    Nothing spanky new, fancy or high dollar... 1994 Chevy Cheyenne. Previous owner was my older son. At the time he purchased it, I told him when he was done with it, I'd pay him exactly what he paid for it. Well, roughly 6 years later and $1200, I own a vehicle that requires two keys again.

    1972 Yamaha DS7

    Not so far. Someone on another forum mentioned that something similar happened to them after advancing the ignition just a little too much, and the motor kicked back and ran backwards. I've had the same ignition timing in it for a while now with no issues, but the points/condenser have been in...

    1972 Yamaha DS7

    No apparent carnage... Couldn't find anything amiss. I'm gonna slap a cover back on an keep my fingers crossed.

    1972 Yamaha DS7

    Gonna pull the cover tomorrow evening. Hopefully it's just the cover. But if it took the case out too, I guess I'll be "forced" to buy pistons for the RD350 engine and install it :P

    2002 Kawasaki ZRX1200

    Figured I put one up for the ZRX. I'm not dramatically changing anything on this bike so I'll just drop it in here. Purchased in March of this year, this is where I started. A few minor mods later included Shorty Levers, painting the Master Cylinder Covers black, and replacing the CF Tank Pad...

    1972 Yamaha DS7

    I hadn't really played with the DS7 much since the last posting. Life and other interests took over and she got put into hibernation. About this time last year I had the realization that she would be 50 years old in 2022, and made the declaration that I would wake her up and get her out for her...

    S'pose to be really nice this coming weekend. Might make for a good excuse to bring the bike out ;)
