Finished installing the air horns and reinstalled the plug-in battery charger to keep her topped up overnight.

Admitted defeat.

I got the bumper and grill back on, and the top plastic thingamabobber with a sticker on it. The replacement bumper clip push pins I found at the local Fred Myers cheaper than anywhere online.

However the Westin Brush Guard is a no go and never meant to be. After knuckle busting on it all afternoon with a neighbor I pulled everything back off, packaged it back up and gonna sell it. If anyone wants a Westin 35-1180 for a Ford f150 or Expedition, make me a decent offer and pay some shipping.

The Curt receiver is in place and puts my winch cradle in a great spot. I mounted my license plate to a Curt holder that sits in the receiver.

Should have kept it on the side... and bought the Jeep.... That's what I did. What did you get. I bought a 11' Wrangler JKU Sport last year. But I could never part with the Expedition.

Good lord what a day! I embarked on installing a 3/2 lift on my 2000 Expy. Have been PB Blasting it all week. Rear jacked, tires off lower drivers side off no problem. Remove the spring and go to work on the upper shock mount. Well DAMN! It backs 1/8 of the way off then freezes up and wouldnt you know the nut is so corroded its totally round!

Needles to say, 12 hours, 7 different tools, two packs of heavy duty Dremel cut off wheels later and I cut it off. Replacement bolt to be gotten in the morning and finish up the other three corners which, needless to say don't look to be as corroded as the one I worked on today.

Finished up the rear Rancho 5000 shock and Daystar coils spacer install. Passenger side was cake compared to the drivers side!

Next up ... front shock replacement w/ Rancho 5000's and then onto torsion bar and keys replacement followed by rear upper trailing arm and track bar replacement

[Captain Morgan]

Seriously? That thing is going to wail every time you put it in reverse?

 

[Big Red Monster]

yes it is but seeing as people are idiots and dont see a big F**king red truck backing up and have nearly plowed into me 4 times in 3 days I said the hell with it now im putting an alarm that way if they dont see me there gonna hear me, and its the one they use on construction equiptment not the little wimpy ones people stick over the reverse light

 

[Big Red Monster]

i actually mounted it it under the truck useing a scrap steel bracket, took one bolt out of the hitch put bracket on and put bolt back, its tucked up out of sight and is very loud when ur behind me

 

[Captain Morgan]

LOL I believe you. I just hope your neighbors don't key your truck.

 

[Big Red Monster]

i park in the garage at night and my neighbors dont really care, our street is busy as hell all the time so a beeping sound is nothing right now in summer my street is a drag strip lol

I think sometimes people see us they just don't care. I hate everyday I have to almost run people over to get over. People don't want to be stuck behind me but trust me I will get over one way or another.....

 

[Big Red Monster]

i know what you mean its like when im trying to change lanes and i have some shit head in a little honda trying to not let me in, its like hey ******* my blinker is on just for courtesy im getting in front of you whether you let me in or i force you into the other lane

 

[Captain Morgan]

I added extra horns and I use them vehemently.

Drivers are idiots and too distracted to actually DRIVE the car.

Sometimes I wish I could outfit my rig like the cars in the original Death Race 2000

.

 

[b514]

What setup do you have?

I have wolo 402 horns on a 5gal 80psi air tank. They're ******* loud lol!

 

[rexster314]
