Went out to Lucerne with Metcho (vcyota92) and Los (Gimme Sand) and Darren to break in metcho's new motor of 1445. We put a good 70- 80 miles on the race truck and my truck. Metcho was even awesome enough to let all of us take his truck for a hot lap. It's like driving a bass boat. You see the choppy water in front of you but you don't feel shit lol. Steering has Zero feed back you just hold the wheel and point the truck were you want go. Epic!

Anyway like I said 70 ish more dirt miles on my truck. We did a full lap around course. You can ask GimmeSand truck takes a licking and keeps on kicking. Beat the piss out of it and drives straight as an arrow going 75 down the highway on the way home.

On the way out rain X for the win! It started dumping on us leaving Ventura. My pile has no wipers lol we couldn't see a damn thing! rainx'd window and we were good to go
Also picked up a new radio Antenna from PCI those guys are awesome! Radio works bitchin with ant cut to the correct length.

photo wise 100% failed this weekend

ICEHOUSE ( shit sucks) and HIGH GRAVITY 211 Steel Reserve and some Wild Turkey acted as my blanket in the 29 degree weather. The next morning sucked pretty bad lol

Another trip for the books.

Glamis 2011

Put another 250 miles or so in the sand/desert with no issues. Never even got myself stuck. Jumped it a few times was pretty conservative as I had to drive it home too

Max took a video of my truck jumping other than that nothing but onboard footage as far as i know. My front is a little too soft right now and the rear is too stiff. Onboard video doesnt really do anything any justice I just had it so I posted it.

Took a quick trip out to Barstow this weekend. Had a great time. Put another 50 or 60 miles on the truck with no issues. Didn't get any action shots. Probably should have partied less and driven more but what can you do.

I finally painted/installed the new hood and scored some new belts from Poly Performance. Purple! They look rad still need to install shoulder straps.
Need to get the skid plate on there and mount my CO2 tank in the bed.

Welp it's time to take the governor off... Metcho and I were talking about how the rear end of my truck working like crap still. He's asked hey did you get new limit straps when we finished your truck with the 16inch SAWs ? NOPE same straps same tabs as the tampon shocks. Total fail on my part, just something that got overlooked. So I figure Ill be will be scoring a few inches ( Thats what she said) of travel. Watch your MIRRORS! LOL

Got the Co2 Mounted need to make a tab off the bed cage that bolts to the back of the mount.

6995314767_a434c4f4af_b.jpg


Thanks Scott.. yea that corner of the bed is a bit of a fail with the filler neck and battery.

New limit straps showed up with a quickness as always thanks to Tommy at Poly Performance!
Gunna get those bad boys installed tonight along with some other things.

7003276763_cf24447133_b.jpg

Fuck work! get desert !

6901060686_8cf829cd90_b.jpg

Another successful run for the Desert Mouse. Took it fairly easy due to the amount of trucks we had with us ( 14) and also due to the amount of shit I was hauling. The new limit straps seemed to make rear work a bit better but tough to say with rear so sagged.

Olive's new seatbelt worked awesome too! Cant wait to get out there again!

No Action Shots

Ejected the stock heater last night. Didn't work anyway. At some point going to install mojave heater or something similar.


After riding passenger in my truck I realize the lack of foot room. Pretty stoked on results. Need to plate a few holes and re route all the wiring.
6954339474_ee9858b482_b.jpg

Got more of the stock heater bullshit pulled out. Pre ran the passenger seat and I can stretch my legs out completely. Just need to patch one more hole in the firewall and I can button everything back up.


6962652236_3683faac6d_b.jpg

Also I have been trying to come up with something better to hold my camera instead of having my bag behind seat. I had this little triangle camera bag laying around im going to give it a go....
Should allow me to snap more photos with a quickness and be ready to roll again...

6967114726_71f8301640_b.jpg

Even gave it a little custom paint job.

7005117514_333b56d5a2_b.jpg
 
Few Little updates..

Finally done with tieing all the wireing back up after removing stock heater. Next wiring adventure I am going to move all of those relays i think under the seat so they are out of the way and add a few swtiches for a few more things seat heaters for both sides for sure!
7201425642_76cec8f4e4_b.jpg

Moved the Dust light down to the rear bumper..I liked the other spot better but its always blocked by my tent cot. Making it basically worthless.
7201429740_ab0137d594_b.jpg

7201433362_4ca2588f20_b.jpg

Pulled the worklight too... never use it and i want to be able to lay the tent cot flat over that cross member
7201431632_e69d5fdb03_b.jpg

Relabeled switch panel it was getting a little hammered
7201427808_24b2c67f7e_b.jpg


Yea rock lights are on my to do list as well. Really comes in handy. A lot of guys are running LEDs.
Scope this
ROCK LIGHTS - Under 50$ for a strand of 20 lights!! - Pirate4x4.Com

vision x has a pretty sweet rock light package

Ill have to scope those out. Im sure they are more than the Cheap LEDs that i posted above.

Your truck looks even better in person, I was the with my buddy picking up the f100.

Thanks man.... I cant wait to see that F100 out in the dirt!

My truck came with some odd labelling as well. It had HIV1, HIV2, DGAF and RDNPO. I plan to do the same on the new dash for lots of confusion and LOLz.

I had nothing to do with any of those lol well maybe the DGAF switch

Took advantage of the Mother's Day sail/Sale

In other news... Started my battery box install the other night...going to be moving my filler neck a little bit adding a tab off of the CO2 mount. Which will allow me to move batteries closer to the bedside.
Looking into getting new shoes too might just bite the bullet from Tire shop and get them with the warranty. If any one has any newer 33x10.5x15 BFG ATs for sale hit me up.

Few other additions coming soon.

7747046096_544a2e590c_b.jpg
 
Another epic trip for the books.. laid down probably 80 miles or so. Rear is a night and day difference with the new pistons and valving. Truck is so much smoother. Huge thanks to Metcho and Scotty and Bob after I broke the hard line on the clutch and pissed out all the fluid. Once Scott got there with the 8 inch piece of new line truck was back in business in no time....

Motiracer and I both ran outta talent in this sand wash. And the winch works like a champ.
