[Cheese] We had to stop and eat.

The hanger is going on, then it is time to cut mounts and grind.

I am wearing OSHA approved safety sandals, but thank you for your concern.

Yeah, it is getting to be good Amish beard season.

Steve, we need to fix yours soon too. [/Cheese]

I see Steve ingeniously placed the recovery shackle hangers strategically so they will take the hits on the rocks to save the spring shackles.

[Cheese] We had to get the boy.

We are back now.

I may get my hands on the plasma in a second.

I think the axle may be far enough forward to keep the shackles out of the rocks.

I cannot drink until this is done, so the Jager will wait until we are good and done with grinding today.

Surfing outside rules.

Jim, I just got your message. We may ring later.[/Cheese]

Yep, still have the rig. Also bought a 2002 Spa Yellow Pearl Honda S2000 which I am having fun with. Rig of course is still for sale to fund a tow rig. A buggy project won't be too far out now and I have be actively looking for a donor truck. Actually just got the 220 outlet installed in the garage today so I can actually weld in the new house now. A first gen 4Runner is a hard find down here in SC. But my garage is 32' x 28' and beggin for a project.

The Runner hasn't been off pavement since leaving VA. The beach doesn't have much to offer me as far as 4 wheeling goes so the rig you can drive to the trail thing isn't as practicle anymore. I mean there aren't rocks anywhere near here.

Good luck with the swap Steve and I'm sure all the souls in hell are thankful for the cold day you provided...
