Yes we do... LOL
And of course you DO LOL
But with this shirt I am going to have to look for some sort off self defence system if you want to drive with me. I'm kinda attached to my brains.. LMAO
How about the one I just got?
I Can Only Please One Person a Day.
Today Isn't Your Day.
Tomorrow's Not Looking Good Either.
I found a whole site for great T-shirts.It's pretty much all biker stuff but I think that is fines.The one on there that really gets me going...
Fat people are hard to kidnap.
See...drinking non-lite beer is doing my part for my own safety...LOL.
Share the site with us, will ya?
Btw I love your new sig... it's so you LOL
http://www.wickedjester.com/
Here is the link.
Do I still have a sig???I thought I got modded and they said no more sig for FIEND.
I haven't seen my sig in the past few posts....not since the lesbian sig....LMAO!!!
Somehow my sig does not show in every post either.
I guess this a mystery on this board LOL
Kasia...you have mail!
Everything is starting to look up all who care.I drove the Rodeo yesterday for the first time since Febuary.My bubby John(blind spotter) and I put my driveshaft in and drove the Rodeo around before parking it to clean on my friends truck.Looks like the Rodeo "SHOULD" be ready for the June run.We went over a plan for getting it ready and should be about 3 weeks which leaves me about 2 weeks before the run!!!
I'm loving it!
Take a deep breath John, slow down and count to ten.
Better? Good...
Now... What was that???
Rodeo goes under it's own power....not safely but it goes!Quote:

Will be ready for run!
Have 2 weeks to spare before run!
Cliff notes version
You are pure blonde... LOL
But in short:
Two weeks to spare.
Killian's Red is in order.
Visiting your sis any time soon???
Oh, and about that mail... LMAO
Thought you'd like the cliff notes version.The Rodeo dosen't much care for being driven right now so it'll stay parked until the rear is totally finished.No work now though because I am leaving in about 2 hours so work stops.
Maybe going to see my sis...we'll see.Like to meet up with everyone if I do,jonesin' for some House Of The Dead now that y'all are goin gamin.On a good note though...I have been drinkin beer since 8:36 this morning in order to be seriously lit by the time y'all start my toast on Saturday night....remember,it has to be LOUD!!!!!
See ya all!
Figured I would put this back at the top.
It was falling into the spring run thread and it's been awhile since then...LOL.
For all who keep track I have changed the MWIOR site.I was tired of having MY name on OUR site address so I canged it.Only took about 2 days to earase and rebuild but it's done and the new address is........
http://www.mwior.4wdriver.com/
I have to say it looks much better with white background.
Thx John for all that work. It's great.
I have a few pics of other zu's from Snowball run if you want to make it less VX oriented... LOL
Thanx kiddo but if that's all that shows up then that's what get's posted.Maybe everyone will see that and start coming to events....LOL.
Well everyone,Good news!
Last night or early this morning however you want to look at it the Rodeo came home.My friend and I spent a few hours until about midnight or so fixing the rear end.It is driveable and better than stock.
I still have alot of work to do but it is rolling.Can't wait to get this thing done.
I think I solved my little problem. No more laughing at me, cuz I got help LOL
I got this step that hooks on my tire and gives me some height. It was very useful yesterday when I loaded my VX with some mulch and stuff for my garden. Now all I need is a few more hours at the gym to be actually able to drag that 60lb tire off my roof rack.
Yeah, it's not easy to be short LOL
Too funny Kasia! I like that the step even has a bit of yellow on it to match your Proton. Cool!
Gill, that yellow thing on it is a warning msg. But don't ask, I didn't bother to read LOL
And you should've seen all those "helpful" people at k-mart's parking lot; loved to watch me throwing them big bags up on a roof, but neither actually asked if I need help. Now I don't :)
Nothing like an independent and resourceful woman!
Any more at like you?
Well back from the depths of the worst cold I have had in years!!
Nice step there kiddo.It will still be neat to see you wrestle a tire but if you can whip around bags it won't be long...LOL.
No Rich...I think Kasia is the last of a rare breed.The rest all depend on everyone else...LOl.(I'm gonna get nailed for that comment)...LOL.
Rich, I do not know. Let me get back to you on this matter ;)
Thx you guys. I knew you would like it. I just need to say, I didn't really buy this step. I got it from my h, and believe me I didn't think I will EVER use it. Now I am damn glad I have it LOL
John, I do not think you will be seeing any wrestling with tire in my creation. You just wouldn't let a small, helpless creature like me deal with such weight, would you?. ;Do;
No.....I guess I prolly wouldn't.Well,I would for a minute but then I would rush in for some helping hands...uh,hand.
I am sure by the time I need help, you'll be both-handed LOL
Rich or Gill, can you give me part # and info on those Trooper skid plates? Pretty please :)
From experience, the only skid plate you will absolutely need is...
#8-97049-784-0 trans protector $60.00
#8-97104-788-0 bolts $0.56ea
get 4 bolts.
It replaces that flimsy tin crap that's bolted to the crossmember now.
If you really really really want the other skid plates they are...
8-97018-375-2 Heat Protector $87.71
8-97036-238-1 Frame Protector $ $39.08
I think these 2 are a waste of money. The heat protector is the skid plate from the older Trooper which protects some exhaust piping that we do not have. This is also the one that hangs excessively low, I took it off.
I am still using the frame protector only because I am too lazy to get back under my VX and take it off:rollo2: It does seem to cover about half of the torsion bar. But really, we don't need it.
Keep in mind too that these last 2 were on back order for about 2 months too.
Thx Rich.
I guess I'll get only that one for transfer case. I trust your judgment :)
Just bringing this back to the top :)
I ordered my skid plate, and hope I'll get it before the run. I also put order in for tie rod shields, but with my luck those will come a day after the run...
Looks like I am not going to be able to make it. I have to be at my company's anniversary open house and can't get out of it. They are canceling everybody's vacations to make sure all management personel are represented. :rolleyes:
It's a major pain in my ***** is all it is. Anyway...maybe next time.
Well Rich....that sux!
Hopefully the next one you can make!We will miss you....(sniff)....I...really....(sniff)...miss you now:waab:
What a disappointment, Rich. I will miss you too. :sado:
Here, here Jonh... wipe your tears off. Need a hug?
Sorry to hear that you will not be joining us down there this time Rich. That's one less person to keep me from doing something stupid! Hope the turnout is a good one otherwise!Quote:

TRUCK WONT RUN!!!!!
That's right folks.My Rodeo is now not running.I have 4 wheel drive again after almost a year and a half and the damn thing dies!!I have changed various things but Rodeo no go.Hoping to be able to drop the fuel tank and change the fuel pump and crossing my fingers it works.
Everyone hold your breath for me!
Tried holding my breathe for you, but it only lasted for about 1 minute. I think I'll cross my fingers this time :)
June 26th right? My nieces HS graduation party. :( One of these times the planets will be in perfect alignment. Maybe the next suburb meet. The lift and s/c are doing fine.:D
Fuel pump didn't work.I did find that the wire going to the fuel pump was bad so it was a good thing.
Not sure if it jumped time or not but to find out I have to tear apart the front of my motor....YUCK!!We'll see what happens.
Sux you can't make Batguano but there will always be another one to come out on.
Yeah, it would have had to happen today for the planets to be aligned :)

Got an e-mail from two places about shipments. I guess both, my skid plate and tie rod shields are going to make it on time before run. Getting anxious...
Talk about cutting it close you guys!
I hope you both get your stuff together before the run!
I really wish I was going, Anybody feel like camping and wheeling again on Sunday? Just a thought, If I can't make it for Saturday day, I could hit it Saturday night and camp over? I know I'm pushing it with you guys, but I thought I would throw it out there.
Rich if my Rodeo starts and runs by the time this run happens I will be more than happy to hang out for a Sunday run.
Pretty sure it'll be a no go as the Rodeo hasn't been touched in a few days(raining and I have no garage) and it prolly won't get to a shop and back in time.Hold....cross your fingers.
oh boy... Sunday run, huh? I would love to but have to work early in the morning. Tempting, very tempting...
John, I put your name on my passenger seat just in case.
LOL:laughy:Quote:

Yea...it's embroidered right under VehiCROSS and above Recaro!
I just thought I would gauge a reaction for the camping thing. I sure am going to miss seeing you all.
