T100 under the knife

Ahhh come on Scott...I know you got more pics than just that one!

When you think you'll be ready to go test it out?

i do, but you limit me to 20K pics. what the hell can i post with 20K. i might get one lug nut in the pic.

i plan to have everything welded up over the holidays and then pull the axle back off to rotate knuckles. i bet i ought to be done by the end of january. i just have to order front shocks (length still unknown) and steering rods (length unknown).

FYI, we are trying to get a run together for either KR or Tree's in late January or early February; try to keep moving, so we can shake your rig down.

Hey man. I need some parts. Do you have any of the steering colum left over?

Yes I have the whole interior. I have the steering setup down to the rag joint, beyond that(steering box) is gone.

Hey Scott, Is the T done?

Scott e-mailed me earlier today that the progress had slowed down a bit....I guess that with the new CTD, he has become complacent.

I almost bought the CTD Dodge so I know how he feels. I'll email him and see if he can hurry up and update us

I suspect that there are more than of a few of us eager to see his killer rig back on the trail. :xrocker:

CTD's rule, I sometimes wish that I had bought one instead of the Tundra.....certainly when I am towing.

not much new going on with the rig. i have a lot of other things chewing up my time. i will get back on it pronto though.

We had a great run at Tree's this weekend...I can fill you in on the details offline. There are plenty hard obstacles out there; your big giant rig would certainly be at a disadvantage on some of the tight trails, except for the wheelbase and axle width.

We winched 12 of 14 up a particularly nasty spot...Jimmy and Shannon cleared it [although Shannon has a very nice new dent in his passenger's X-cab as a result]. I hooked up my winch without even trying very hard after watching the three Heeps in front of me get hyper-tippy, and knowing there were 9 more mostly lesser-equipped rigs behind me that we needed to get off the trail.

Get 'er done!

You know Scott at this rate I'll have 60's on my truck before yours is done. Seriously though, I know how it is. It took me two years just collecting parts.
Right now I'm picking up my $75 rear FF60. Next are some t-cases and adapters from Marlin. BTW you went with 23 spline cases right? Remind me how much farther back you front t-case output shaft is.

Thnx
Matt

I have a postman friend that has a T-100 and he would like to lift it a bit and fit my ProComp 33x12.50R15 tires on his truck
Can he do that, what lift is available and will the tires fit w/o lift?
thanks
bob

Long answer: have him check out this forun http://www.4x4wire.com/forums/postlist.php?Cat=&Board=UBB78

Short answer, with a little front fender seem trimming and the correct offset wheels you can run 33's witn No lift. Check out that site it has lots of good info. sorry that don't have more answers bat I have been SASed for so long that I don't remember all the specifics

thanks for the link
do you have a lot of pics of yours on a website?
I want to show him!!!
