I got to take the truck out in the snow last weekend. Snow conditions were good and the truck did well. Spend half the day clearing fallen trees though. Its that time of year.
Im still tinkering with the steering here and there. Tried over the knuckle steering but I would have to cut a bunch of brackets off the Core 44 so I decided against it. Im just gonna get a drop pitman arm to reduce the drag link angle. Then someday get a new toyota box. This one from the junkyard has some slop. But new ones are damn expensive.
Also one of my brand new Timken wheel bearings was shot after 200kms. Im calling it defective cause the other side is still tight. Got that replaced. Hopefully they last.
Oh and the wife picked up a brand new Jeep JL Willys! Pretty sweet ride. This was its first time out.
