Enjoying perfect weather at Expo East.
Tearing down the Driver-side head - hung a lifter. Ugh. Of course, just before the Uhwarrie trip... :/
Spent the weekend with my son on the "Byway Winter Ride"
Spent the day exploring the NC/TN mountains looking for a place to have lunch with snow dusting the way.
Enjoying the evening, and the bourbon, at Expo East.
Spent the night at deep water camp area at uhwarie. Picking supplies at Eldorado outpost . Heading for dickie bell trail.
"Toughing it out" at Charlotte motor speedway Friday to Sunday at turn 4 campground
@Charlotte Rigs and coffee...
Did some exploration of flatop in yancey county, and some camping and hiking with with my wife.
Added GMRS license and callsign;
WRTJ513
Got the rock sliders on and AC finished just in time for a 5-day run to Okracoke Island. Finally completed a trip that didn't end up on a flatbed ride home. Explorer did great in the deep sand.
After several engine issues and a blown torque converter, the Explorer is finally back on the road.
Now to get the rock sliders on and finish the wiring, bull bar and kitchen.
Bumper is on
Winch is on
Added 3 more inches of lift
Riding on 35" Nitto's
Waiting on exhaust to be finished
Got the engine back in. Will finish the headers, electrical, AC and cooling system and mount the winch & bumper this weekend.
Gotta bail on Charlotte Rigs & coffee - kinda bummed about that. But I'll make April, with a more complete vehicle :)
Got the top end installed. Degreed in the new cam, and got some of the paint on. Waiting on some gaskets to button her up.
Starting to reassemble the bottom end this morning. Should have the heads on by tonight. :)
Saturday night engine rebuild. :/
... still better than body mounts....
Replaced all Body mount bushings. 8Hrs. Not a fan. But it does ride nice :)
Just back from Charlotte, NC Rigs & Coffee. Enjoyed meeting you all! -
