New 60 ton press... About a weeks worth of sorting the go... goodbye clutter!

Putting some scrap steel to use...

Built this one yesterday for a buds Toy axle...

Thanks Simon! Making a bomber truss that fits over the top of a Rodeo Dana 44. Going into a friends rig...

This little kit makes a huge difference... https://www.volquartsen.com/products/201-target-hammer-for-10-22-and-10-22-magnum

I guess it is time to make a "Ruger 10/22" thread... Is there a moderator who could move the gun posts into a thread of it's own. This could go on for awhile and deserves a place of it's own. Thanks, Ryan

This is sweet...

I used a 17 Rem in the past. Have yet to make the HMR/HM2 leap. Keeping my eyes pealed for local 10/22 receivers for such conversions. Maybe down the road. My 10/22 is also the Ruger target version. Stainless with the hammer forged barrel. It is currently waiting on Volquartsen for thier complete trigger guard assembly. The moving parts will then be a complete Volquartsen setup.

All the dies in one spot...

James is correct.. They call these pistols Ruger Chargers. Ruger sells them as a pistol. That is a 50 round drum and they also sell a 70 rounder... Mine is fairly modified compared to the factory version. I used this for target shooting (works on my trigger pull). Then take the Ruger 10/22 out for the hunting part. It is apart right now... post up pics when it is together.

Nope, been working on cleaning up all the other projects around the garage. And have been playing with the 22's a bit...

LOL, there is more than one vehicle involved... plenty of dirt. Your not wrong.. it is just hard to relate to my mess. :o)

Does it need to? This thing is where most of the new mods are come up with. It will someday drive and do everything well. However it is probably my last huge Nissan build... so why not make it a good one.

Reworking the front end... placed the new radiator and now making a bumper that fits the intercooler.

flip them... right on left and left on right... see if that works.

More Alum work.... Trying another radiator configuration... Had a custom Jegs radiator in the shed for a past project. Wondering if I can get this bad boy to fit... Went to the Junkyard and picked up a Volvo E-Fan... these are the same unit as the 2-speed Taurus fan... only removable from the shroud. These Volvo units also have an easy to remove relay pack for the fan. This is also on the way... coolant fan switch from NAPA. This switch is used in THESE applications. While at the yard getting the fan... napped the plug (and a used spare switch) from a VW.. Making it work together...

Wouldn't it be easier to put your Pathy body on a Waggy Chasis....

New next to old... Putting stuff on...

So the intercooler inlet is on the driver side and the outlet on the passenger.... why not make an intake that points towards the output of the intercooler.

Looking at these bumper pics makes me miss living up north... Never been to Inuvik! Have been as close as Old Crow and Barter Island/Kaktovik... The Dempster is a road I have always wanted to drive. What kind of bumper you wanting to build? Tube, Plate....
