  1. I guess we're doomed 😂 https://babylonbee.com/news/heaven-confirms-people-who-line-the-dashboards-of-their-jeeps-with-little-duckies-will-not-inherit-the-kingdom-of-god
  2. New rig in the barn! '67 scout 800, someone swapped in a 304 backed by a 4 speed out of a scout II. Single drive belt, mechanical clutch, non-power drum brakes, crank windows and windwings as the design gods intended. Quick trans rebuild,ties and brakes plus a water pump and this awesome rattle trap is on the road!
  3. I have to say that off road gear guy is a great bag, been rolling with one since our AZ days and theres been no degradation at all. Due to some laziness on my part it rarely comes off the rig surviving the desert summers and the winters of the Rockies. Bonus, you can pack a surprising amount of firewood into it! Worth the money IMHO
  4. Well leave a light on for you
  5. Couldn't get our 29 Ford parade rig running reliably enough generator issues
  6. Forgot to share this full moon shot while sitting in bed, talk about "Glamping" 😏
  7. I'm told it's hard to do a selfie with a 35mm LoL. I'll catch her one of these days.
  8. She's an EMT but will be a full blown paramedic within a year, studying at full speed but there are time on task requirements. If I recall they partnered with Red Bull in Surprise. Perspective is a interesting thing, the folks in these here parts lose their minds when it hits 85, lol. S & S
  9. Small town life, annual "Victor days" event. Stacey is the unofficial official photographer 🤫 https://photos.app.goo.gl/2xB2wLUkTMqFcX9X9 Enjoy
  10. Just a thought, have you tried flashing the ECM? It seems odd the issue is so milage specific.
  11. Happy birthday Sir!. Good to hear we left a positive vibe with the gang. We miss running with you guys, it was truly a family. Still reminisce through post and pics. We're doing great, absolutely loving mountain life. Stacey just landed a job at the local hospital running on their ambulance as well as rolling on our departments, I'm neck deep running on fires. Moved into being the primary engineer, years of talking to Machines matains value. I used some anti vibration pads to mount the compressor to minimize sound. You can hear it purr but it's not bad at all. Removing the plastic liner in the wet well gives you just enough room the close the hatch, bonus is it gives you a place to coil up the hose and plenty of room for a manifold for the lockers. I'll dig around to see if I have any pics of the install before I decked it. The wiring that came with it reached the firewall running on the passenger side putting the inline fuses along side the seat for easy access if needed. I mounted a power distribution block behind the glove box to bring heavy power inside the cab. Used a rough country four switch piler panel to run a relay for power on/off then the remaining three run the compressor, water tank pump and the winch circuit. Enjoy your time with your family. We'll talk later. Scott and Stacey Knew I had a pic! FYI, I did have to take the muffler off it's mounts to be able to tighten up the fasteners.
  12. I always felt under hood installation was asking for heat trouble. Found that the twin ARB fits perfectly in the well in the back of the Jeep, just had to remove the plastic liner that's in there. Never had an issue in the desert or in Sub-Zero that we get in the winters here. Minimal noise and clean climate controlled cabin air. Just an option to consider.
  13. We just endured the worst (and last) move ever... across the road. We had a three day notice and three weeks to renovate the new place, it was in rough shape. Totally worth it! Downsized in acres from nine to three but went from 600sqft to a thousand (can't believe how much stuff we had in there) as well as gaining a 30x50 shop. The veiw is absolutely incredible of the valley and mountains. The night shot was around 3am at moonset.
  14. Our Dept decided that everyone needs to be able to drive all the equipment. Stacey had a blast in the deuce and a half but she's not ready to trade her jeep in...yet🤔
  15. Why yes she is. Currently running with our volunteer fire department and is going to work at the hospital ER also.
  16. Outstanding choice, we've started with the MTZ's awesome traction on/off road, after 35k still better than 50% tread left...but painfully loud on pavement. Switched to the ATZ's now we don't have to yell at each other over 20mph, proved themselves highly capable in the snow this past winter (3'+ and never thought about chaining up). Playing in the spring muck hasn't been an issue. Note, we're in the northern Rockies of Montana so the word snow is relevant. Parked the truck for a month, Jeep's love snow!
  17. Guess who graduated top of her class? She takes the national test in a couple of weeks!
