Oliver Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 OK, Spokompton folks. The season is here! -bounce- This rain has gotten me antsy. We need to hit up the mud down by Nine Mile and soon. Once my gas tank is back together I think we should meet up for some muddy mudness. BTW hopefully we will have a new addition to our crew. One of my work buddies is looking to get a Pathy (or he has already) and he wants to go play! Now we need to organize! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm here at EWU in Cheney so I'm kinda in the middle, 'bout an hour from you I guess. Thomas, how's the huntin? BTW, the pic in my signature is from the ORV park we're talking about.

Oliver Posted October 22, 2006 Author Share Posted October 22, 2006 OK, so now I have another Pathy convert to bring along. He picked up a 94 SE with an LSD and all the usuall bells and whistles. Save for a couple small leaks, it is in pretty nice shape. He's got some near-new Bridgestone Duelers (31X10.5) and I'm jealous. Here are our rigs at work today. Excuse the cell phone picture please. These things need some mud!!!! -bounce- I figure that the best day to get out for the two of us would be a Thursday. We both have the day off from work and I have no class. What will be good for the rest of ya? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest SuperSon Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Hey guys lets set up a date. Hope it doesnt snow real bad this year. Snow doesnt scare me but those people from idaho does I was also thinking of headin to the community college to see if they can hook us up on some tire carrier and maybe sliderz,Just need to pay for the parts. I had some parts on my RC car custom made by some of their student in the CNC shop so Im assuming that they can fabricate something in their welding shop for free:D Ill let them have my truck for a project. Maybe a paint job too. Casey thanks for the info on that Thorleys.Im ordering it soon. I need to focus on my timing belt for now. I dont wanna do a bunch and overwhelm myself. After my timing belt im going to do my CV and install Calminis UCA while Im at it. Need to prioritize for now on whats important Im looking forward to meeting you guys and do some work on our trucks.Its more fun that way . I bet we can do a suspension lift in an hour between the 3 of us. Let me know guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oliver Posted October 31, 2006 Author Share Posted October 31, 2006 Superson let me know what happens with the college fabrication stuff. If they can make good parts in class and just charge for materials I would be very interested. Also ask 'em about some rear bumpers perhaps. :cool2: I think its gonna be tricky to get all the known Spokane folks together at once. Between my and Dave's (aka Davekell) work schedules our weekends are pretty shot but, again, we have Thursdays off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey.T Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Well considering I already have all the tools for a Calmini SL... Before we do it, your going to have to get some grease zerks installed.... Trust me on this one... may not squeak on the road, but they will on the trail.... Also I dont have a way to get the Spindles out of the stock UCA's.... Need a Torch... Timing belt/water pump... less than 2 hours Time for just playing around..... Thursday night after we are done with Oliver and Lisa, I have a school musical to go to... Then Drive up to Elk Camp.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SuperSon Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 I will definately let you guys know on my venture at the college tomorrow. Casey ,Ive been hearing nightmares on removing that spindle out of the old one.Is it that long rod with a 22 nut across the UCA? Some said they cut it with sawzall and some burned the heck out of it. I have not done this before but my idea is drill a hole on the rubber big enough for a airsaw blade to fit in then cut all the way around. My airsaw would cut that easily and I have plenty of blades. Burning it seems like a long process.Im heading to whiteys wrecking tomorrow and see how much those old UCA cost. Ive seen a bunch of them laying around and if it doesnt cost a lot ill pick up a pair and see if I can figure out an easier way of taking that spindle out. I can maybe even talk the guy into getting that out of the uca . You know the junkyard will take anything apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey.T Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Think its $50 for a pair of UCA's they would not remove the spindles for me... I actually want a set of spindles so I can talk with a machinist friend about putting zerks in the ends..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
