Hello from CO!

[Am3ricanInfid3L]

New to the forum, but not to the Expy. I've owned mine for about 5 years now and plan on keeping her alive for as long as possible. Newer pics are coming soon. Current ones are from last year (used as a Halloween Zombie 5K prop). Multiple upgrades have been done since then.

Thanks guys. Kinda tough navigating all of this from a phone, but I think I'll eventually get the hang of it. Should be nice being able to get help and opinions from people with the same vehicle.

Yep. Sure do. I had to make space for bigger tires. I'm not running the ones in the pic anymore.

How's an infidel like you deal with the ******** gun laws recently enacted? I have experience in a divided state; The left-side of WA state is Blue; the right side (east of the cascade mountains) is decidely red; except for OLD Democrats who are conservative and would be considered by TODAY's democrats as full of "hate" and "Intolerance".

[DetroitDarin]

MOST importantly - what did you use for that blood - and did it wash-off okay?

Colorado is pretty divided too. Denver and it's surrounding areas are blue. Everywhere else in the state is red... Ish... The gun laws here Arnt as much of a headache as people think. They are still a pain in the ass though. You have to go out of state to buy larger capacity mags and stuff (unless your military. Then you can just buy mags in Ft. Carson (; ) It's still an open carry state though. CO will eventually become as blue as California though thanks to the new pot laws. People are literally moving here just because they want to smoke.

They Don't... Lol it's a long story, but I had bought it stock, and took it to a small town shop to have a 5 inch installed. They had no idea wtf they were doing, and ended up installing it completely wrong. They actually put the mounting brackets on upside down, and ended up cutting my frame in order to make it fit. Because they cut the frame, the crossmember started to crack. I ended up raising so much hell, they paid me back, and threw everything they could offer at me to avoid legal damage. After it was all said and done; I took my messed up ghetto lifted expy to a 4x4 shop to get it fixed. They took me in, and welded everything back together (they even threw in some additional support) all at the cost of the other shop... So instead of having a fancy 5 inch lift; I got a ghetto rigged 3.8 inch lift to be exact lol.

I used the fake spray can type blood. You can find the cans at most Halloween stores. It's not toxic, and normally used for writing "bloody" messages on things. It comes off pretty easily too. No stains. I only had it on for about a few days though. It's a real head turning accessory for Halloween!

If you can remember the brand name of the blood, I'd owe ya a priated DVD I got from the Hagi shop in Balad.

 

[Am3ricanInfid3L]

Yeah. I'll even take a pic of it to show you where they cut the frame. I guess you can call it a "custom build" now lol

Lol I'll do my best to remember it. I'm sure if I saw it again I'd be able to point it out. Next time I'm at the mall I'll try to find it. I plan on using it again this year!
