Any progress as of late?

Glad to see you kept it. I like the build and would like to do the same with mine once I get my Volvo beater back together and running for the street. I would actually like to go taller, maybe put solid axle up front and such. So much to do so little time.

Wasn't this up for sale not to long ago over at S-10 Forum?

Wondering if you have installed the fuel pump yet. I am starting to get teh same issue. A lot less severe on mine at this point. BUT.... I have the fuel pump but not the time to do it. You know how the universe works, when you have the time, you don't have the money, when you have the money (or fuel...

Next time I need tires, I am calling on you. That is what I wanted to pay for these but couldn't.

jflatley

Well I have 5000 miles on the new tires. I just did a rotation on them yesterday. The reason for the rotation was they started maknig a very loud humming noise, more than before. I took the front tires off and found the reason to the noise. The front tires are starting to cup up a little. It is a go...

I thought it sounded wierd when I first read it and it said "My GF got turned off". I thought to myself, What???.

That was good, I like that.

To be fair to all of my boats, I thought that I might list them, also to not change the subject from the boat topic. My older brother is a boat mechanic, so that is why there are so many. I can get them as he finds them for free or good deals. I used to be a "Horse Trader" in the boating world, but ...

I have an old 19' MFG. It is from the 60s probably. We are over here on the East Coast, I am about a ten minute boat ride from the Atlantic Ocean. I was just wed about a month and a half ago.

The Mossberg's are really good guns. I have one shotgun in my collection and it is a Mossberg. I have dropped it off the side of the dock into salt water, took it home, cleaned and oiled it. Shoots Just as pretty as new. I let my brother use it one time, He leaned on the tailgate of his truck, strip...

Can we get a run down of the price list in this set up. I have been thinking of upgrading to something like that with new sound all around as well. I have come across some deals on ebay but am always skeptical about buying electronics I can't pull from a new package. Pics of the glove box set up yet?

jflatley

That would be nice if I could bring the Crew with me out there, but I am sure that is not possible. I wil hit you up when I get closr to date.

Hello, I have just last week signed up for the United States Army Reserves. I am college educated and have a very descent job. My wife also has a very descent job. I was at Ft.

Yes, I actually took about an inch and a half off of the fenders, following the Skidz Cut Out with out putting the flares on. http://www.s-10crewcab.com/og1/modinfo/skidz/skidz1.html You can still see it a little bit on the driver's side where the metal bent a little. http://i334.photobucket.com/alb...

Had an alignment done when I had them put on. Should be good to go for a while anyway. Here are some pictures of them on the truck. If anyone is interested. I am going to keep this post up every couple of thousand of miles or so for anyone with interest to have a general idea of what the tires are. ...

jflatley

Tires were put on about a week ago. Drove three hundred miles on them the first day, didn't even wear the "dimples" off of them. They do have a humm to them at really low speeds and at above 55 mph. In the middle, you don't even notice it. It is not a loud humm, just right. I haven't been able to te...

jflatley

Yeah, they have a warehouse in Delaware somewhere they are shipping the tires from. Hopefully, they will be there when I get home from Work. My tire guy says if they are there, he can put them on tonight. I have sent alot of work his way and he likes me and my son so that helps.

I just ordered a set of Goodyear Wrangler MT/R 31x10.50 R15 from Tire Rack.com, They came out to 750 shipped. I was shopping for tires around here, and I couldn't find those for less than a grand not mounted or balanced. Internet is a pwerful thing. Thank you to me for putting all that money away fo...

There is one around the Baltimore, MD area that I see every once in a while, They pulled the bed off and built a flat bed for it. It has an engine crane on the right rear side and looks to have some kind of bolt in engine stand that gets removed. Pretty neat looking but have never had a chance to sp...

I have the stick on type, and instead of placing them on the paint, I stuck them to the outside of the window weather stripping. Then tucked the front corners behind the mirror hanger. The look like they are suppose to be there and are not aftermarket.

jflatley

I took an inch and a half off following the Skidz Cut Out Flares instructions. I only did the fronts because the 31s that I have fit nicely in the back.

Thank you, yeah, I think that it will be nice to go on the beach and not have the passengers ask what that rubbing sound is.

I think I am going to keep with the 31s, I like them and they are all I need.

I just did the fronts cut with mine, and did not finish it with anything but a file and one of those touch up mini bottles of paint from the parts store. Mine looks great, (Personal opinion). Followed the same directions, only for the fronts, as those for the cut out flares, but really careful not t...

When I hit the brakes the hazards go full and don't blink anymore?

Happened on teh old ford but don't remember how I fixed it.

Alright Thanks

jflatley

That is what I thought, thanks for th input.

I guess I will hit up another shop tomorrow.

I bought a set of shackles from Jigg at Syneryoffroad the other day, they should be arriving shortly. Than I think that I am done with lifting. Now I think I will put a few bucks into performance.

jflatley

So, I have another question about cranking the Torsion Bars. I did the torsion bar crank today, I cranked them until the tires were the same distance from the fender (after a trip or two around the block to settle). I took it over to the local alignment shop after I was done for an alignment, Expect...

i think my next project is going to be, figure out about gene splicing in plants. Try to get a 50 lbs tomato or a six foot ear of corn.

I have heard that about welding to galvanized. I have never felt any effects of it though. Most of the welding on this was outside, with a light breeze so I am fine on this one. I picked up some black iron piping today to do the rails. I have a maple tree out back that has a fork in it. That is my p...

That is a fishing rod rack. I have a drive on pass for the Assateague Island ORV side. I go fishing on the beach a few times a month, less when it gets cold but still go out.

That back stansion was the one that needed a little persuading to do what it was suppose to. It has been corrected now.

Let me know what yall think. I am not completely sold on it yet.

How can you tell when an image is over 100k,

I went ahead and linked these, I don't know how many pixels they are.

Thanks guys, that will come later when the thing is finished and ready. Anyways, here is the first test fitting. Lines up really well, needed a little straightening to the truck. Maybe an inch to the left, not much at all. I guess the jig got twisted. HJ, I had thought about making that a 90 all the...

I thought that the key element of powder coating was the baking. I thought that is how it became so durable. In the pictures you can see the wood template that I was workiing with. There is going to be another cross member in it, right about where the front stansions are at. I am waiting to get it a...

jflatley

Here is what I have of the ladder rack. I started work on it last night again and found that putting the stansions on the bottom and fitting the rack to it was a whole lot easier. http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m410/jflatley00/Ladder%20Rack/IMG_1748-1.jpg http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m410/...

I will take pictures when I get off of work.

I would imagine that Powder coating would be something very expensive for something of this nature.

Well I had to take a break from the project for a while but am now am back in business. I am building a full contractors rack. I have the frame layed out and the stansions set, I just need to find a few more hands one weekend to get it set and finish the welding. I ended up building a 2x4 box teh sa...

If nothing else, I will have to replace the filler neck.

Can I use the one off of the F250 parts truck? Or can you buy a generic one that is of a larger diameter?

Does it need that check valve in there? Can I put a filler hose with no check valve in teh filler hose?

jflatley

Alright, I am going to check the EVAP canister hookups and filter. Mine was almost bone empty and none of the hoses underneath are wet from gas. Th top of the tank is dry. I pulled the filler neck off today and inspected it. Looked good to me. Almost seems that there is an air lock in the filler nec...

Just hear me out. Couldn't you just take an old frame and cut out 18'' off the back. Weld them onto the rear of your frame.
