Anyone in the phx area have a set of 33's that are just taking up space? With or without 6 lug wheels, just trying to get this new gen 1 up and onto the trails, I've got a short shopping list of things I need and tires in this size are not as plentiful as I expected them to be out here (noticing a trend of 35-37's though!)

If anyone has any, let me know, I'm in mesa but I'll drive all over this valley. Thanks!

You can reply here or call/text me at 269.357.4372

Got a set today!



But now.... I need a 2.6 oil pick up tube!!

Any gen 1 guys have a 2.6 oil pump pick up tube?? Willing to drive far and wide to locate one. The yards were all dry today.

Looks like Johnny B might have me covered. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Hey, I recognize that truck! Glad to see you're making progress. Have you fired it up? Time to remove it from my signature... Good luck, keep us posted. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Got him partially hooked up. It's an oil pick-up, just not the "right" oil pick-up...

Nice meeting you A.M.

AM probably would have had the truck running this weekend but instead his Galant Sedan made a hole in it's block heading through Kansas on it's way to Az. He had to pack up his van and head out on a rescue mission, unfortunately he got stuck in Amarillo (snowstorm) on his way. Just got moving again this morning.


Haztoys, I'll be up the hill again in a month or so for a few days we'll have to meet up.

Paul,
thanks for the secondary hook up on the truck, I was gonna have the truck running by this weekend but I wound up stuck on a rescue mission into the icey hell that became Amarillo texas.

We witnessed many wrecks, and almost wrecked a few times ourselves, luckily we didn't see anyone get hurt, though many people were reported injured or died from accidents on the ice covered highway 40.

Saturday before we left I put new front pads on my diesel ford van, since it roasted them 3 weeks ago when we moved here coming down 87 out of payson without trailer brakes (lost those in oklahoma when a shoe delaminated) it then worked it ass off for the next four days, running for a continuous 96 hours, either high idling to keep the heat going in 17 degree weather as we caught 2-5 hour naps in the van (in most instances only stopping because of weather or closed roads but making the most of it by catching some sleep) or hauling ass down the highway.

It's good to be back in sunny mesa. I could've gone without seeing snow this year, I was really hoping I would.

John, I got your text during my expedition, I sent one back but I was in and out of service, dunno if you got it. The carb is sitting here ready for ya. I can drop it by the next time I'm over there or you're welcome to stop over any day and grab it. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
