No we're literally buying a farm lol. Waiting on a mortgage broker... Presently focused on 96ac about 5 minutes from the other office that I can run > 10Mbps DSL to. Fiber if I ask real nice.

Pretty much the same story with the shackle.

I have a saws all I'm trying next time, just gotta buy some blades.

Looks good!
Is it just me or does the back view make your tires look like they're tilted?

Looks goofy I know, axles are fine though, just rebuilt them over the winter inside and out & slid them under her a few weeks ago.

Just gave Peep the factory scheduled 690325 km oil and filter service.
Wondered why dog wasn't with me under the rig for her usual inspection?
Caught her finishing my sandwich and drinking my beer. Wife laughing herself silly.
That's it, both grounded from the next mall crawl. Let's see who's laughing now?

Cussed a lot and swung the bfh many a times. Got all four ball joints out, only got two in. Gonna try and finish it up tomorrow. Took six hours to do that little bit of work. Even had a fancy ball joint removal tool. That thing gets heavy after awhile. Edit: sorry for the same pic over and over... On the app
