Haha I'll have to get on that!! Get it, get it? ...Get on that!

BTW, Saturday is the Utah Undie Run - supposedly 15,000 will be running downtown in our skivvies to protest how uptight Utah is while trying to set a Guinness record! Should be FUN! I wanna go as a Banana in a banana hammock but I'd prob'ly get arrested.

Just read the thread and now it's dead.

Need an update!

How's the Trailphoon going?

I have a black Typhoon so this is my kind of build.

Had a 2.8 Jimmy in '95 too but had to sell it after 11 months when my employer went bust. Loved that truck. Wanted a Typhoon since then and bought it 4 years ago.

The stripped down engine is still in the kitchen!

Hey Monstertrucker, I can't beleive someone I don't know was actually viewing this thread! I don't visit vx.info much anymore. But some folks asked in Moab about this project so here is an update.

The last 2 weekends have been all garage so the house and yard are farked!

Anyway... I remove the engine when I need to. As it sits here is how it will sit in the vehicle. The axles are also on casters; so is the frame..


All squared up and level. Notice how easy it is to reposition the outriggers... all by design. Giggity giggity...


My first bends!! I am proud of how all this came together. I bought BendTech Pro but have not even used it yet. I didn't want to waste tube on calibration haha


Everything is square and level too!


Bending is a workout, btw...

OH.. and here is what became of the 3D model:


Here it is in Blitz Black (John Deere paint, I think):



This color is what l call "Meab"... cuz I am a ginger but it is kinda Moab red also.


Any thoughts on these two colors?

Sunset Orange, all the way

Yep...I once piloted a JD JDX 340, & the color was indeed called "Blitz Black"

On the bright side...you're not a Gilligan.....

Look'n good Bro, keep tha 's turn'n...

Hello!!! This project is still around I just work slowly. Not that anyone cares. Haha. But I quit my job & sold my house & moved back to Wyoming. I figured I would add this photo highlighting the hillbilly rape wagon-esque moment I parked it:

I had to put the stock frame back in and make quick wooden SAS mounts in order to trailer the project to its new home.
Also, I bought a wrecked SSR and will be bringing that home in a few days as a new donor.

I will explain what is up with that in another two years!
