Probably my favorite picture from this past dunes trip.

That is a good picture and a great trip !

I have read some on that design several time over the years. Impressive.

Some more carnage repair pictures, broken exhaust manifold, broken winch wiring where the fan got ahold of it, broke the mech fan shroud and the electric fan... new engine mounts for both sides, and some pics from this past trip as well!




Weight of the turbo hanging on the end two primaries kinda broke them a bit, so braced and tig welded. Somewhere in there the fan blew up in my tig welder and i had to disassemble that as well and fix it...  <a href="http://www.animateit.








everything on the drivers side has to come out to get to the mount





head gasket es leaking a little.... but we dont worry about that little guy.









total weight for the trip, 22,500. Truck and trailer are heavy.





new mounts grab 7 bolt holes instead of 3.

Thats all for now! Kinda want to dig out some more old pictures and upload those as well!

Had a very muddy day of fun at tuttle creek in kansas this past sunday, got pretty rowdy climbing a ledge in very slick rock/mud. Ended up with yet another broken axle shaft. If you listen closely at the end, you can hear it break. I really need to swap to a dana 44 for how I drive but... thats expensive.
