I'd planned to pick up a spare ever since I did the conversion, but just never got around to it. Now I'll pick up a couple more to have around...at least until I manage to find time/space/$$$ to start working on shoe-horning Carhart's ol' 5VZ under the hood lol I haven't checked yet -- you have...

What's that? Me getting it out of the yard or the GM ignition module taking a dump? :redneck: How the heck are you doing these days, Rix?

I might do that one of these days...after I get it running again. It stalled on me while using it out in the yard today, and refuses to start. I'm thinking the GM ignition module took a dump lol

...a new home (lost out a few times and gave up, tried again, got shot down, tried again, got out bid 4 times in a row... you get the picture), got a *little* too focused on finances and credit and started drinking way more than I should, rode the motorcycle to Alaska, son-in-law goes to rehab...

Must be a TG kit thing. I've don't recall anyone ever having to swap out the rad for a SAS on a Taco before. What's the reason for the shorter rad (genuine curiosity)? Was it interfering with the steering or something? Is it my beer goggles, or is the new (shorter) one also wider? It looks like...

WAS being the keyword. At some point he stopped giving a damn on keeping it clean, and now it's bashed to **** now. Last I'd heard, it hadn't moved farther than the driveway in years. Yet another "If you can't buy it..." scenario.

I've worked on fixing at least one of 'em that was done around here back then... Sloppy work to say the least... Not that I'm entirely happy with the swap we did on Rob's rig, but it was light years better than what I "got" to fix. I'm trying to remember if we had to do anything special with...

:yawn: SASing a Taco is so 2003. :redneck: Looking good, Crash!

...hacking up the original RCI filler neck in a futile attempt to create my own filler neck, I stumbled across a post that mentioned that the Jaz 45* neck had a "flapper" to prevent it from spilling fuel up the filler neck in the case of a rollover... That finally sold me on getting another...

Thanks! Is is one of my favorite hiding places lol :eeek: I'd build my own if I wanted this kind of quality. Just curious -- what was it for? Did you ask them WTF?

Thanks. I wanted this thing done 7 years ago. I'm actually shooting for a light shake down run at Tahuya sometime (probably late) February. I've still got a lot to do before that, though. Any recommendations on where to get a rear drive shaft built? I'm somewhat expecting to call Tom Woods or...

I don't remember if I've already said it or not, but the shop looks great, Mike.

There, all current up to here. Now crash can stop popping over to that other forum asking if it's done yet :haha:

Dammit! Just as I'm getting the Cow to a point that I *think* it might go wheeling sometime in the next couple of years (house hunting is taking priority right now), someone goes and leaves this in my garage... Yes, this is yet another long term project...but the Cow WILL wheel before this...

...used rubber hose to run the lines. I never really liked that setup, so I ordered up some nice 1/4" stainless steel fuel line, AN fittings, and a 37* flare tool (for those who don't already know this, AN fittings use 37* flares instead of the normal 45* flares you get with most common flare...

...this morning, and they already had a couple in stock :good: New clutch is supposed to be delivered today. I'm working this weekend, so even if it *does* show up, I won't be able to do anything with it. Oh, and All-Pro can go :swing: themselves. The t-case brake I ordered from them on 9/17...

...Bled the brakes and all is well again. No more leaky cylinders, and brakes work great again. ---- Got the new fuel pump installed yesterday. *Much* quieter than the POS I got a Schmucks last year (or the year before -- I forget now). The Cow runs a LOT smoother when the temps are in the...

Got to spend a few hours out in the shop yesterday. Zipped out some plates to mount my tail lights (I'm really diggin' the plazzz!). I was wanting to mount the lights in between the tubes, but the gap ended up a bit smaller than I'd planned on. No problem... I'll "french" the plates into the...

Spent a couple of hours out in the shop this evening... I think I've about got the pattern down where I like it for this punkin'. <-- Taking this back after reviewing the pics... Started with .077 (the original shim alone). Drive @ 077: Coast @ 077: Using Zuk's page as a reference, It...

...Just as I walk around the back of the truck, a big billow of smoke floats up from the converter…and it’s getting thicker. After an OH S**T moment, I ripped the lights loose while en route to the driver’s side door to shut everything down. I never did figure out what the hell caused the...
