They were nice people who passed while enjoying what they loved to do. Their deaths are trageic for sure, but a reminder to value what you have done and not put off what you plan to do. There is no substitute for playing it safe, and even when you do things can happen that are beyond your control. Driving is a dangerous activity no matter what form it is in, and I have that thought in my mind every time I break 110mph down the stretch at Willow Springs with other cars on the track.

Zuki is coming, slowly. Got the steering all hooked up yesterday (a PITA !!!) ran all my brake lines and pads up front ( I know, who needs brakes ?) got the engine running MUCH better, installed a relay for the starter (factory hooks it straight up, which can fry your wiring) and using a cutting wheel to remove the stock shock mounts up front, will be installing the aftermarket towers today. Got a venturi vent tube (TSB notice on Samurai's). Now I have to get my new T-case mounts in and motor mounts in, get shocks, then I am pretty much done.

We bring Daniel's Heep to get fully caged on Monday, the samurai will be right behind it. Got some aux lights waiting to be installed on the little guy as well. And order a 5 point harness for me.

I'll try and grab a picture of the ladies, I know I have some...


Alright here ya go, these are a couple of the ladies going. There should be more, but this is the best pics I have, from last Halloween. And before you guys get too hard, the "robber" on the far right with those big beautiful ****, shes mine. Been with her for YEARS. Sorry, but the other are for you to enjoy:


*** remember, you never saw this pic, nor did I post it up. help keep me outta the dog house ay ?

madmax: I will definitely get pics up asap. It'll get started on Monday, so late next week I'll hopefully be able to show you the Heep. And Dan says he is definately going, but trying to find someone to tow his big *** tires (and truck) and if not, he'll probably just take up his Runner, and lay low like last time.

Big: Thats what I'm always telling her !!

Test drove the zuk today !!

Got brake lines all set and re-done. Got extended shock mounts properly set in there. Steering got adjusted properly (again, what a PITA !). Re did the fuel lines. Cut out the old filler neck, got a old hose, and made a semi-custom filler for the tank. Got my seat all set in, fit great but was probably the hardest/most time consuming part, who woulda thunk it ?

Got new shifter sheets for Tranny and t-case (its the rubber bushing the shifter itself rides on, when they go bad your stuck in neutral... and mine were border line). Got the starter relay installed... and some other things I can't think of right now.

No pics right now, about to head home. Tomorrow I'll be back in installing a new T-case for my buddy's Jeep, so I'll post pics then ! Alright guys, have a good Friday night !!!
