We r stoped in russelville...sounds like tornadoes hit 40 in littlerock...we r bout to have a cell come our way...hope all turns out good

Now eating to the siren of tornado warnings...this is the worst road trip thus far

Shoulda got an alighnment before leaving.....the front ones are gonna be bald on the outside before we hit sc

Said code 33...o2 but I forgot it would show multiple codes so I think ill be checking them again later today again since it cleared the codes

thanks...after dinner I decided we should just get some good sleep after tentin it last night and I only slept 2 hours bc I was worried about someone screwin with us or the truck and there were some rocks in my back...anywho I will check it out in the morning and hope its only iac but thinking it may be the cas or the dizzy moved Thanks a ton man!

Horrible wind all day...in amarillo eating now...shooting for Oklahoma city...path has cel come on and is running like dog piss...I out 86 in it but I do know I have some iac issues...can someone post in this thread the procedure 3 (I think) for getting my codes and what the codes translate to so I can check it tonight...all I have is my phone so that would be a big help instead of trying to search Thanks so much

I40 is still closed......

I40 is still closed......

Stuck on 40 in az...got the truck parked tent up and the gf and kids almost asleep to the idle of tractor trailers and sand blasting the tent...passed 20 miles of people parked...pretty crazy...hope to make ok city tomorrow... So far with all the wind and trailer and no sway bar I've had no issues...just slow going through the mountains

alright...about 2 hours from hitting the road...we worked till midnight last night and got back started at it early this morning...still gotta air up the tires on the truck and then we r on the way

so I'm driving on the 33's the last people to dismount the 31's ate a chunk out of the seal on the tire...I'm pulling a 5x8 trailer and taking the gf and her 2 kids...this is gonna be an interesting trip... OK for all you So-Cal folks...i've got a ton of parts i'm about to chunk b/c i don't have room for them...if you can get here before 3:00 PM they're ures...I would love a donation (something like $150 or so) but its not required...heres a brief list of parts...front and rear driveshafts...2 front axles (opens)...tons of door mechanisim parts, 2 sets of fender flares, a few sets of heads, bunch of other random parts... PM me so my phone gets the email if interested b/c i won't be on the lap top much today...I have to finish getting everything to storage, get the front windshield replaced (they'll be here in 45 mins), rewire for the uhaul trailer, get the uhaul trailer, load up, clean the house, go to my old job and pick up a check b/c they realized they owed me $, go get the gf's kids...tear down the fishtank and get some sleep to start our trek in the morning

I have 2 stage JC Tbars on my 87!

that's where the price quotes are coming from...

yea its like $600 for the trailer...but that's still cheaper than buying a new(or used)tv here, also a bed and some other miscellaneous things...so i've been talking with the gf and we're gonna decide once I get there...I'm not terribly worried about sway b/c I won't be driving my normal b/c i'm towing and if I have her kids in the car then it'll be careful trip as well... I'm gonna try to get the windshield replaced on Monday after I get there ($188 so thats not too bad i don't think) I'll def keep some details coming in and if I break down somehwere on the highway someone can come pick me up lol...jk...that would not be a good day

Well it looks like for sure no trailer...I chunked the swaybar...it looks like ill be driving with 33s...selling my aquarium and getting the minimum tools I need for work on the truck...I'm going to try and get a spare tire and weld up a hitch receiver to hold it bc driving without a spare isn't intelligent...and we will just eat the cost of fuel on 33s..I also need to get tje front windshield replaced from breaking it like 4 or so years ago

question...towing with a 3" SL and 3" BL without a swaybar...anyone done it and know how awful it may be...i don't think it should be a big deal esp with the 31's back on it but I have a feeling it may present some tail swagger after looking at trailer rental prices...i may not be renting a trailer and leaving tools in storage lol...

Ok well I've been having the wheeling but pretty bad and now that the 87 is back functioning and i'm on the east coast its killing me that she's just sitting...My contract at my job is up July 31 so the plan is to go out to CA this friday and move everything out of the house there...I will hopefully be putting 31's back on the pathy and thrwoing the 33's, tool box, air compressor, power tools, camping gear, bed, gf (and maybe her 2 kids)and some other miscellaneous odds and ends like dishes and who knows what else... so my deal is my storage unit is slammed full out there and i've got a ton of parts at the house that I would love to sale cheap and not chunk it...so I get there late friday night and then saturday go to bakersfield for beerfest then sun and monday me and the gf go through the storage unit and house to see what we can chunk/donate and see what we can get in the storage unit (this includes digging out the air compressor which is buried in the storage unit) So this being said on sunday I plan to make a list here and in the for sale section with rough prices and people can make offers or whatever and I'll sale/ship everything that gets paid for on sunday on monday and everything on monday i'll ship tuesday... the plan for tuesday is to have everything in storage except for the bed and have everything else loaded into the trailer...I may have to wait and take my 40 gallon saltwater tank apart weds morning before we head out... so there are 2 plans of driving...if kids in tow we will go to the grandcanyon or something like that on weds and try to average 10 hours a day to NC...if the kids aren't in town I may shoot down to baton rouge or new orleans but get back to SC in 3 days instead of 4...i'm going to be towing a Uhaul trailer which I have to wire up since my old wiring module got toasted not too long ago...but this should be an interesting trip for sure... after getting to SC (i hope to get keys on friday before i fly out) if not then I def have to be back by 5 on sat to get keys or we wont have a place to stay till monday...we will unpack and I will have to make the "dining area" my lil work area with the tools and probably have to set the aquarium up in the kitchen b/c its the only place there is linoleum...I cant wait to get the truck to URE I'll probably update along the trip like i have done in the past...this will be the true test of my 95-87 swap

I don't think its a bad price...if the frame isnt rusted all to hell...i'd pay maybe $700-$800 for it max...if its just burning a lil oil from blow by on the valves that's not a big deal...if its ring blow by thats a lil bit bigger of a deal but wouldnt be a show stopper...I think that truck could be parted out easily for $2k...the lightbar and lights would get you at least $200 if not closer to $300...

statatoryAPE (if i spelled it right) is the one that did the body swap after rolling...

unsuccessful run...the trucks are pretty much stripped

heading over there now....theres only 1 HB and still the same pathy's so i donno what will be left... Hey B...did you ever get pix of that ARB before you put it on...i just saw it installed in your sig?

I need one of those too but if I find one ill let u get 1st dibs on it

Cheap probably but I don't have a cordless sawsall here...sorry

K it was raining sunday when i got back in town...there is nothing on the agenda this weekend so i'm gonna make the run if its sunshiny...

I like SteeevO's store... www.RuggedRocksOffroad.com ...I got my 3" BL lift from him...as soon as I get back to my truck or my truck back to me there is some onboard air and at least one locker coming from him...Def a good guy and if you have any question's he's usually a big help
