SPEAKER_03 0:12

Well, technically I'm a whole day late, so yeah, you're still we're all good.

SPEAKER_05 0:18

I can see over Chris's head, so I changed the uh that better. I changed the layout on my on the control board here, so we'll see if things work or not.

SPEAKER_04 0:29

Oh now it's not buttons to push.

SPEAKER_05 0:32

I'll just push all of them and we got all kinds of lights tonight. Oh yeah. Here this might be loud, I don't know. Here we go. Welcome to episode three of Heatreated Garage Trail hated. Um, just to copy those other guys, he, she's, they's, thems, guys that steal t-shirts from companies so he can sleep in them and think about the owner at night. Joining us today, we've got, of course, Big G to my right. What's up? Uh Mr. Hansen.

SPEAKER_01 1:25

What's up?

SPEAKER_05 1:26

It still says FSC.

SPEAKER_01 1:29

FSC?

SPEAKER_05 1:30

SFC. I can't talk.

SPEAKER_01 1:33

I don't know how to change it. I've been retired for a while.

SPEAKER_05 1:37

Hey, you retired that way, you get to keep that. So I do.

SPEAKER_02 1:40

And retired or retarded? Well, shut the fuck up.

SPEAKER_05 1:46

And we got uh the most famous one of us all from Rico's garage. We've got uh Rico or Ricky as everybody knows him.

SPEAKER_03 1:56

Hello.

SPEAKER_05 1:57

And then, you know, coming up short at the bottom of the pile, our little buddy Dustin. Who was late as you heard in the preamble there.

SPEAKER_01 2:09

The most hated out of the trail hated group. He might be. Dave, you know you'd love me.

SPEAKER_05 2:16

I'm working on that locally. Didn't even know I was, but apparently, apparently I'm hard to work with, according to some of the the local uh mall crawler groups.

SPEAKER_04 2:23

I had to get rid of that group today. She kept tagging everyone, everyone, every and like gone.

SPEAKER_05 2:29

We'll uh we'll talk more about that on Patreon.

SPEAKER_04 2:31

Yeah, we can talk about that on Patreon.

SPEAKER_05 2:33

So are you guys gonna talk about the shirt?

SPEAKER_02 2:35

I did not actually buy this shirt. I bought a packout mount, and I was given the shirt for free.

SPEAKER_05 2:41

So yeah, and you failed at that job too, because you were supposed to get a third. No, wait, sorry, pack it. That's the that was the oil bottles.

SPEAKER_01 2:48

He only he only had enough steel to make the two. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 2:52

See, Dustin should have checked it before he made promises.

SPEAKER_02 2:55

I like Dave better, so I get it.

SPEAKER_05 2:57

We know.

SPEAKER_02 2:58

Mine should be here Wednesday, I believe. I got OG number one, Dave got number two. Or I got number two, or Dave got number one. I don't I mixed him up when I threw him in the bed of the truck.

SPEAKER_05 3:12

So, anyways, what are we talking about tonight, guys? Uh, some of us went wheeling, some of us are, you know, still sitting in the garage, some of us just have a pile of parts. Uh, we'll get to that pile of parts in a little bit, but let's start off with you guys went to what is that two weeks now? Three weeks ago now? Two weeks. Yeah. You guys were uh back over to the Badlands. Um, aka the the proving grounds, the test runs.

SPEAKER_02 3:44

Test run park.

SPEAKER_05 3:45

So still not a bad park just to get together and hang out.

SPEAKER_02 3:49

No, it's not a bad park. It really isn't.

SPEAKER_05 3:52

I was I was bummed I wasn't there.

SPEAKER_01 3:57

You would have been cold, buddy.

SPEAKER_02 3:59

Yeah, oh yeah. I don't know. I slept pretty fucking warm in the camper.

SPEAKER_03 4:05

In your custom made bed that was just the right size. About a quarter of an inch too short. We learned on that trip that the dying is a quarter inch shorter than Dustin. But he fit in there just.

SPEAKER_02 4:24

If I angled myself at like a 20-degree angle, it was just perfect.

SPEAKER_03 4:27

But he had the heater vent pointed at him, so he was happy.

SPEAKER_05 4:30

Uh he slept very well. So who's going to first give us their rundown on how things went?

SPEAKER_03 4:36

Not it. Nope. Dustin, you're up, bud. The trip was your shakedown run, so it's all you buddy.

SPEAKER_05 4:50

Okay, can you guys still hear us? Yeah. All right, I don't know what happened there. Um, I got a text from about the same time we lost all audio on that. She's Annie says she's got like the hallway light won't turn on um to seem not doesn't have any power. So I don't know if we got power glitches going on around here or what, but so I will do some editing more than I normally want to, and uh, we'll take that little bit of the beginning there.

SPEAKER_01 5:19

We were three minutes in, we could just start over. Nah, we'll splice it.

SPEAKER_05 5:24

It's easy to splice it together. Okay. So, Dustin, back to you. You talk about uh your shake your shakedown run at Badlands.

SPEAKER_02 5:32

Well, car ran real good. Um did the three-length, the full hydro, the coilovers on the truck. Uh took it over bad lanes, cruised around, had a good time. Everything seemed work good. I think I need to raise. I think I need to raise it about an inch or so because high speed to the dunes, it is bottomed out pretty hard. Or just do hydro bumps on it.

SPEAKER_01 5:59

Well, we also need to look at the 200 over 200. You're not really getting a rate change.

SPEAKER_00 6:10

Yes.

SPEAKER_01 6:11

So you need to drop your upper spring rate a little bit, and then we need to adjust your uh second rate uh limits.

SPEAKER_02 6:24

Yeah, really just for so you you got 200 over 200 right now, 200 over 200 right now, which I don't know jack shit when it comes to quote.

SPEAKER_05 6:33

You gotta throw something in there and start. Dave, what's yours at?

SPEAKER_01 6:36

Mine's 150 over 200, which should be should be about because the same motors. No, my uh I thought you guys were mine's a little bit bigger. Uh I mean that 22R is a two-point, or is it a it's a 24, right? 2.4 liter 2.4, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 6:55

I'm talking weight wide. I guess I should say same motor, but similar weights. Yeah, the only difference.

SPEAKER_01 7:02

I mean, I got a hell of a lot more tube in the front end, but he's got sheet metal, it should be really close. Um I should look.

SPEAKER_05 7:13

I might have some yeah, I think I might have some 150s you could try, Dustin.

SPEAKER_02 7:17

And for low speed crawling, it seemed to do fine. Um, I didn't hear any complaints from anybody watching me. For high speed stuff, I think I'm kind of with Dave, do like a 150, 175 on the top.

SPEAKER_04 7:32

So, what do you set it up for up travel and things like that? Uh up travel right now is about two and a half inches.

SPEAKER_01 7:38

Well, you could stay at it. You need to come up about another inch.

SPEAKER_02 7:41

You can come up another inch. I set it that way just so the truck is level, matching the rear.

SPEAKER_05 7:46

Where do you have have your um slider stop set? How high up from at right height?

SPEAKER_02 7:54

Three inches, I believe.

SPEAKER_05 7:56

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 7:57

You could and really right now it doesn't matter because he's basically running 28 inch. Yeah, he's running a 28-inch 200-pound coil.

SPEAKER_05 8:08

Yeah. So the only the only thing he you could do is if you raise the truck up an inch and then drop those down a little bit so that when you did hit the big bumps, you hit that coil, you hit that slider stop, then it goes to a full 200 rate. You're not splitting the two. I forget what the math is. There's a there's a calculator because I just had to go through that with that that big blue, blue with all the yellow on it, uh 392 on his skyjacker springs, because luckily uh the it got easier because he decided that he didn't need to carry a spare with him everywhere. So taking a four 42-inch with and a race line off the back of hanging off the back bumper helps a lot.

SPEAKER_02 8:53

But I'll get it lined out. It's not like I go wheeling every weekend or something, and it's not a high-speed truck.

SPEAKER_05 9:00

Right. It's nice though when you want to bomb down a you know, back to camp or something like that, that you're not gonna that first trip.

SPEAKER_04 9:13

Yeah, because that road in and out of badlands is fun to kind of get on.

SPEAKER_02 9:18

Yeah, if you can get get the Adam was having a good time bombing down it.

SPEAKER_01 9:22

Well the the road is nothing compared to the dunes when you got something with suspension under it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 9:29

I'm curious to to try to go back to the dunes because when we were over there for the beat down, I still had everything lined out with mine. And then when we went to you weren't stretched or anything at that point. No, when I stretched and then I redid all the coil, yeah, I played with all the coil settings before we went to Good Evening. I could I could bomb around anywhere. Good evening. We drove it down the hot the road to the gas station, and I could bounce through anything, and it it went bottom out anymore. It wasn't banging off everything.

SPEAKER_02 9:59

So somebody took a rock in your passenger seat.

SPEAKER_05 10:02

Well, somebody, yeah, somebody left a rock from Badlands in my passenger seat, and then that that coupled with Court goes, Oh, they just sucked a rollover on that.

SPEAKER_04 10:13

Rolled over on that.

SPEAKER_05 10:14

We rolled over on that.

SPEAKER_02 10:15

That's that's a good rock. So did you did you keep that rock? I think it's like the center council.

SPEAKER_05 10:22

It might be in the center council yet. I've been waiting to see your you and your rig. I'm gonna throw it somewhere on your rig so you flop over.

SPEAKER_02 10:28

Okay, I want it back. I figured that rock.

SPEAKER_05 10:32

Yeah, we'll just start passing around who we want to flop. So overall, I'm happy with it. Totally change the truck.

SPEAKER_02 10:41

Totally change the truck. It it's doing a lot better. Um still needs a little bit of fine-tuning here and there, but it's it's a lot better than what it was.

SPEAKER_05 10:53

Anytime I mean, anytime you get the get rid of leaves and go to coils, you're gonna you're gonna gain it.

SPEAKER_02 10:59

Yeah, and I added a couple leaves in the back, so that seemed like it helped the ride quality. Um the Vance has been around that truck more than anybody, and he said it looks like a totally different truck now. Yeah, just the way it drip way it rides. Good. So I'm happy with it. We'll just have to do a little bit more fine-tuning to it.

SPEAKER_03 11:21

It worked very well. Very well.

SPEAKER_02 11:24

I wasn't able to do the high-speed donuts and Tokyo drifting like you did in the dunes, but felt like it was doing all right.

SPEAKER_03 11:33

That there's a small block right over there with you put in it. I mean, it's sitting under the rack.

SPEAKER_05 11:41

I don't think he. I I don't think he's got broad enough shoulders to take the the crap we'd all give him if he got rid of the Toyota motor.

SPEAKER_02 11:50

If I do anything, that sucker's gonna get a turbo and a hood stuck.

SPEAKER_01 11:54

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 11:55

I'm gonna pull a Dave Hanson and go just go dumber.

SPEAKER_01 11:58

Everything needs boost, but I'm thinking about it. I really am. It's only money, you can't take it with you.

SPEAKER_05 12:07

We've we've we were playing with a a slightly used turbo yesterday that we could probably send over to you, you could hook put on it.

SPEAKER_01 12:17

Isn't you know, there.

SPEAKER_04 12:20

So we're just talking to each other right now. It's not recording.

SPEAKER_05 12:25

It wasn't recording, it is now, so keep going.

SPEAKER_01 12:27

Okay. So I just need to remember that the approach angle isn't the approach angle of the buggies. You know, I I have a bumper, it hangs over the front. Um but realistically, it it rides amazing. I just gotta get more seat time because it's weird going from a four-link front and rear rig to where the body just sits level to a rig that's leafsprung in the back to where once you start loading up a leaf spring, it starts rolling the body over. So um it's sort of unsettling.

SPEAKER_02 13:08

Well, and you're going from a buggy that you can see from every angle versus a full-bodied rig.

unknown 13:14

Yeah, which you can't see shit out of that thing.

SPEAKER_01 13:17

You've got the seat set so low and everything else, all you see is hood.

SPEAKER_02 13:22

And watching you what's that spot there by the pond at the Baden? And the waterfalls or whatever. Yeah. People had the ducks on their dash, they were going down the hill and stuff like that. Yeah, going down the obstacle. Yeah. You were crawling up that and you're I wouldn't say you're worried, but you're concerned about the set and everything else. I'm like, Dave, man, uh the truck looks fine.

SPEAKER_00 13:49

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 13:49

I just I just couldn't see. I understand that. Like, you can't see what you're doing, but the trunk looked just fine crawling through it, and I I get it. You can't see what what you're hitting or what you're crawling over.

SPEAKER_05 14:02

So was there a creek nearby?

SPEAKER_02 14:05

No, there was a pond. There was a pond.

SPEAKER_05 14:08

So there was water nearby. Okay, because I I've only ever seen Dave get concerned when there's water nearby.

SPEAKER_02 14:16

He would have a long way to get to that water. Yeah, he would have had to try.

SPEAKER_05 14:20

I mean, Harlan, there was water, bottom of North Ravine, there was water.

SPEAKER_01 14:26

So I tend to I didn't roll, I didn't roll on the bottom of North Ravine.

SPEAKER_05 14:30

No, but there was there was water, and you were very upset.

SPEAKER_01 14:33

So it was the monsoon. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 14:35

It was the monsoon, it was coming down, not under you. It was above you.

SPEAKER_01 14:39

Somebody decides, oh, I'm pretty cool to have a hood. Yeah, the the engine was pretty upset uh on that one.

SPEAKER_05 14:48

I actually watched that video just the other day.

SPEAKER_01 14:51

It looked big on the video. Court posted it up in a little chat, and I don't remember who was like, oh man, that thing sounds like it's low on power. Yeah, no shit. It's an open engine bag. My air filter's sopping wet, and uh my smart plugs are wet too. So it was running on like two cylinders.

SPEAKER_04 15:12

Two and a half, it was like the the actual YouTube video is where they said it seems like it's low on power.

SPEAKER_03 15:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 15:19

And that's I just that's that's why I clipped that section and sent it to the group because you know the almighty Toyota was like so just I'll remember that when you're I gotta get my jabs while I can.

SPEAKER_05 15:35

Ricky, just in case uh I don't know when that kicked out, but just in case, quick recap, you fixed your shocks. Yes, uh way more planked down.

SPEAKER_03 15:48

A lot more travel, a lot more stable. Uh like to say, I was just absolutely throttling that thing in the dunes and it handled really well.

SPEAKER_05 16:01

Are you gonna leave the front on the coil springs or are you gonna go to the coilovers up front?

SPEAKER_03 16:06

It's gonna stay coils for now because uh somebody in this group has planted the seed that they just happen to have a five to one atlas that will fit in that thing and just fall apart.

SPEAKER_05 16:16

Oh time somebody picks that up.

SPEAKER_03 16:20

That may be the next one. That rear cage, rear cage. Remember? Oh god. That has nothing to do with how it does on the trail, though, Dustin. I'm an expert with a soldier.

SPEAKER_02 16:33

I will be over next weekend. Somehow he'll break your windshield.

SPEAKER_05 16:43

Are we changing the back of the cage?

SPEAKER_03 16:46

He wants to redo the back of the cage.

SPEAKER_02 16:49

It's bugging him. I I want to redo the back of the cage and put bedskins on it. Oh, you need some YJ bedskins?

SPEAKER_05 17:00

No, he doesn't.

SPEAKER_02 17:03

It it needs bedskins on it.

SPEAKER_03 17:05

I don't I don't think it needs bedskins for Rick. Yeah, I I I don't I don't think it'll look right with the skins. I I agree that now that the backseat's not there, that we don't need the family style cage, I agree with that, but I I can't get on board with the bedskins either. I just can't.

SPEAKER_05 17:21

I would just it's wheeling season, Ricky. Leave it alone.

SPEAKER_03 17:24

Oh, I have to leave it alone. I cannot do nothing to that until that red bun drives out of here. Right.

SPEAKER_05 17:30

We all you you and I have that same problem. We got too many other products for other people that we need to get done. That if we take a day off of working in the shop, we just gotta go wheeling and we need our rigs just to go.

SPEAKER_03 17:42

Yeah. But so lifey is getting impatient.

SPEAKER_05 17:48

Any split that way. Any other parts of the trip that you want to share with everybody?

SPEAKER_01 17:55

Make sure. Oh, I got one. Make sure you pack enough uh warm sleeping beer. Don't don't trust your buddy. Oh, yeah, I got a buddy heater. It keeps it nice and warm. I just brought my whoobie from uh from the army. It was it was not warm enough when you're basically sleeping in a tent with a hard roof and a hard floor. It's in the air, so it's offering you Kelly's electric blanket. I know the next day.

SPEAKER_02 18:28

And also from that trip, my plan was to sleep in Vance's camper, and I'm really glad it took Ricky up. He's like, hey, the the spot that's the size of a cell phone is available.

SPEAKER_05 18:42

So you fit.

SPEAKER_02 18:43

Yeah, I fit just fine. I'm like, I'll sleep there because Chase and Vance slept in their camper, in Vance's camper. And what time did you get up to go to the bathroom, Ricky? Like six?

SPEAKER_03 18:54

I got up just a little after six to go take a shower. And them guys were just going to bed. Yeah, I thought they were getting up. Turns out they were just going to bed after they decided to drink all the beer.

SPEAKER_05 19:06

I heard about that.

SPEAKER_02 19:08

And got up the next morning, and Vance is usually up before anybody. He's got breakfast going, coffee going, everything, and lights are on on the camper. I'm kind of looking in there. I'm like, they're they're I think they're dead. I'm looking through the back window, the side window, like nobody's moving. Can't see him breathing. Like, yeah, they're dead. The Walmart CO detector. Let him down. So we finally woke Vance up after what? 20, 30 minutes of sleep. And Chase was in obviously riding the Pastor Sheeta Vance's Jeep.

SPEAKER_05 19:48

I thought he was bringing his own. I thought he was bringing his Jeep.

SPEAKER_02 19:52

He sold it. Sold it. Ah Chase does not keep a vehicle longer than I don't know, five days. Um he was sleeping in the Pastor Sheet of Vance's Jeep on the trails.

SPEAKER_03 20:07

Um because Vance had told us originally he was gonna start cooking breakfast till seven. And he didn't have either forgot his coffee or didn't have his coffee pot or something, so I told him I'd make him a cup of coffee. So after seven, I come walking up, cup of coffee, and knock on his door, nothing. Knock again, nothing. Okay, this is weird.

SPEAKER_05 20:32

That's not Vance.

SPEAKER_02 20:34

I mean when he walked out, like dude, you're still fucking drunk, aren't you? He's like, Well, uh, this is good coffee.

SPEAKER_03 20:48

One cup of coffee turned into two, and then he he was finally ready to start going eating. He was hurting all day though. Oh, they played at lunch. They they they cashed out.

SPEAKER_04 20:59

That there's no way I could go wheeling after being drunk all night.

SPEAKER_01 21:03

There is. You can too. You can too.

SPEAKER_04 21:07

When I was younger, yes.

SPEAKER_03 21:08

Nowadays 50-year-old Ricky couldn't do it. 30-year-old didn't think no. Now, no, it ain't gonna happen.

SPEAKER_02 21:17

I don't know. That that weekend, I know we drank quite a bit that Friday night, Ricky, and I was like, I was getting ready to give you shit, and then we got in the camper and just laid down and like out.

SPEAKER_05 21:29

Yeah, didn't you tell him good night?

SPEAKER_02 21:31

Like, I didn't even have a chance to give you shit.

SPEAKER_05 21:34

Well, that's totally different because the last time I was at Badlands with with you guys, all I heard all night was was Dustin talking.

SPEAKER_02 21:44

Court, good night.

SPEAKER_04 21:45

About 12 times. And I was I was freezing while we were at Badlands. We were in a camper.

SPEAKER_03 21:53

There's a couple of things I want to bring up here.

SPEAKER_04 21:56

In a cabin. In a cabin. Was that Ricky?

SPEAKER_02 22:00

Yeah. Yeah, but you shared the room with me, and it was beautiful.

SPEAKER_03 22:07

We need Dustin's review of the bathroom in my camper because I can't tell it as good as he does. Oh my god, that thing's the size of a fucking beer can.

SPEAKER_01 22:18

That's actually a pretty big bathroom, too, for a truck bed camper.

SPEAKER_02 22:23

Yeah, I I sleep in there and in the bathroom? No, I slept in the camper. I couldn't sleep in the bathroom if I even curled up in fetal position. Like there's not enough room to bend over to pull your pants on in that bathroom. It is so tiny.

SPEAKER_03 22:46

You remember Tommy Boy changing in the jet? That's probably what it was like with Dustin changing his clothes.

SPEAKER_02 22:55

I was like, like I can't even bend, like I bent over, my ass is hitting the door, and my head is hitting the fucking other side of the shower. I'm like, this is ridiculous.

SPEAKER_04 23:05

Does it have a shower and a toilet in it? In like one room.

SPEAKER_02 23:09

Yeah, and the sink's about this big around. Yeah. And then you but it's a dry bathroom.

SPEAKER_01 23:16

Like so on some of them, because my my camper's got the same floor plan as Ricky's. Some of them you shower over the toilet. Right.

SPEAKER_04 23:25

That's what I mean. It's a chit chower. A chit chower. It's like a chitter in a shower all in one.

SPEAKER_03 23:31

This one actually has a separate shower with a curtain.

SPEAKER_04 23:34

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_03 23:35

I mean, it's small.

SPEAKER_02 23:37

But you have more room in a coffin than you do in a shower.

SPEAKER_03 23:44

But like I told you, you've only got six gallons of hot water, so it's not like you're taking a half-hour long shower in there anyway.

SPEAKER_04 23:50

No, that's a that's a real quick one.

SPEAKER_03 23:52

It's wash your stinky parts to get it out.

SPEAKER_02 23:57

You get a sprinkle of water, you rub some soap on, you get a sprinkle of water, and you're done. Yep. Or camper. For a truck bed camper, it's decent size, but camper places have decent shower houses.

SPEAKER_03 24:11

Well, they're a little lacking in the hot water department.

SPEAKER_01 24:19

They got heated floors, but no heated water.

SPEAKER_05 24:25

They not have the hot like the hot water turned on yet, or I don't know if they have it.

SPEAKER_03 24:31

It was lukewarm at best. The knob was cold and not as cold. That's all your choice is.

SPEAKER_04 24:37

That's all you got.

SPEAKER_02 24:38

I was excited about taking a hot shower at the Badlands, and these guys tell me that it's cold. I'm like, I'll just stay dirty.

SPEAKER_04 24:44

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 24:46

You know, this makes that shower at home even better.

SPEAKER_05 24:48

Dude wipes for the win. I would be hard pressed for for if you have a group of guys to not get a cabin. Because they're really nice. You got enough guys to hot showers, plenty of hot water.

SPEAKER_02 25:04

Well, I was just going over to test my truck out. Vance is the actual one that actually set this trip up.

SPEAKER_05 25:11

Oh, yeah, because like the day he decided to do it, he was on the phone with me, and he's like, and I was like, Yep, I'm in, we're going. And then no.

SPEAKER_02 25:18

Well, Vance actually called you?

SPEAKER_05 25:20

Text message.

SPEAKER_02 25:22

Oh wow. He actually texted me.

SPEAKER_05 25:24

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 25:26

I'll get a Snapchat from him every once in a while. Yeah, he wanted to go over there and said, Yeah, fuck it. That'd be a good test for my truck. Then I invited Ricky and uh bald fucker up there in the corner. Um that's me. Then Trey come over.

SPEAKER_05 25:45

He only invites you because you he looks up to you, Dave.

SPEAKER_03 25:48

Oh yeah. That that's another thing we can touch on. Um I got there first, you know, naturally, because I'm so stinking close. And distance. Yeah. I get there, and originally we had uh reserved what they call the dry camping, which is no hookups, you can run your generators and stuff, blah, blah, blah. I get there and she tells me there's two motorhomes stuck in the dry camping because it was so wet. And they upgraded us to full hookup, just no extra charge. So that's why we were camping where we were.

SPEAKER_02 26:25

Which was it was it really wasn't as much rain as they had, it wasn't even that wet where we were at. No, it wasn't too bad. But it's a gravel pit, so you know.

SPEAKER_00 26:36

Yeah. Sure.

SPEAKER_03 26:39

So then that was nice. We didn't have to mess with the generators. And all that good stuff.

SPEAKER_04 26:46

Right.

SPEAKER_02 26:46

And it was nice, nice, easy cruising to the bathrooms, nice, easy in and out of the park.

SPEAKER_01 26:51

Uh we we were forgetting Ricky, the surprise. Yes, we've got to talk about our surprise guest. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 27:03

It wasn't you this time, Dave?

SPEAKER_01 27:05

No. No.

SPEAKER_05 27:06

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 27:07

So everybody but Ricky and Vance knew Well, so basically me and Dustin knew I knew uh and you knew, but you weren't coming, so yeah, because he that person messaged you. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 27:26

But uh we were already talking and he asked if we he we were talking about before I said, I wish I could make it, but I was gonna stay and work on somebody's rig.

SPEAKER_04 27:36

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 27:37

And then we're is that rig done?

SPEAKER_04 27:40

Oh, we didn't work on the rig.

SPEAKER_05 27:41

We never worked on it. We'll get to that in a minute.

SPEAKER_01 27:44

And you should have came over to the back to Dave. Uh, and then I see see a Burgundy Denali pulling in. I'm like, hey Ricky, who's that? And uh it was Adam. So seeing old Uncle Riccio all excited, he could almost he could have almost thrown that football over that mountain over there. He was so excited. Uh but yeah, Adam Adam showed up and was side by side.

SPEAKER_05 28:17

Adam of of uh OTR or On the Rocks.

SPEAKER_01 28:21

Yes.

SPEAKER_03 28:22

On the Rocks, yes, maybe one. Comes to my home state and doesn't even tell me. It wasn't I surprised though. It was. It was.

SPEAKER_02 28:34

And you know, I he bought I don't remember when he bought that side by side, and he sent me videos of it and everything. And it's cool hearing that turbo whistle when you gag on it and let off. And I drove it what the 150 yards.

SPEAKER_05 28:48

Did you say when you gag on it?

SPEAKER_02 28:50

Yeah, and came back.

SPEAKER_05 28:51

I'm like, what were you doing?

SPEAKER_02 28:52

I don't I don't like that. It's really cool the first time you do it. Then after that, it's just like this thing is so flippin' annoying.

SPEAKER_01 29:03

Try being behind him on the trail.

SPEAKER_02 29:06

Uh I could hear him when he was behind me on the trail.

SPEAKER_03 29:09

This why did he not do the serpentines though?

SPEAKER_02 29:17

I don't know. I that's not that's not Adam though. He's not a yeah, he's not a let's lay into kind of side-by-side guy. He's more of a trail rider.

SPEAKER_05 29:26

He's a yeah.

SPEAKER_02 29:28

I really wanted to see him do the serpentines, and I'm kind of glad we got out of there when we did.

SPEAKER_03 29:33

Yeah, because they was fixing the stack up in there. There was getting to be way too many of them in there. Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_05 29:40

Was it getting sand flea-ish?

SPEAKER_03 29:42

Um it used to be that sign wasn't there that said UTVs only. And I have had my rig in that serpentine and it works tonight.

SPEAKER_02 29:58

I was really hoping to see that green YJ just ripping through there. I was going to till I seen the sign. I'm like, no.

SPEAKER_05 30:05

Just tell them you identify as a UTV.

SPEAKER_02 30:08

There you go. I had the phone out ready to record. I'm like, I don't want to see this sucker. I want to hear that small block just scream through there.

SPEAKER_03 30:16

But I was gonna do it until I seen the sign. No, I don't want to get everybody kicked out of here. Yeah, that is too many stupid rules. Didn't used to be that way.

SPEAKER_02 30:28

Nope, didn't used to be that way, but man, I tell you what, the last few times I've been over there.

SPEAKER_05 30:34

It's getting to be a side-by-side part.

SPEAKER_02 30:36

It really is. It is. I've got nothing wrong with side-by-sides. It's a side-by-side people. Yeah. That's what I had an issue with.

SPEAKER_01 30:50

Well, uh and you can't blame Kyle for it either. You know, I mean, he's in the business to make money.

SPEAKER_05 30:57

No, he's there to make money. He's got a gate, he's got a great business plan. I mean, if I could do it, I I'd be doing it.

SPEAKER_01 31:09

Do you know if Mission Impossible is still a thing? I think it's an invitation only. Uh, a couple times a year they open it up. I think. It's been a long time since I ran it. I haven't been back there for like 12 years. And uh even then it was grown over and everything was mossy and stuff like that. So but I like that little I I completely forgot about that little ridgeline trail that we ran Saturday afternoon. Um like overlooking the that main access room out to the concrete mall. It's it was a little much for the Tacoma.

SPEAKER_03 32:01

It was a little bit like uh that used to be the orange trail back in the day. I'm not sure what it is now.

SPEAKER_02 32:09

But Ricky, there you took us on some stuff I've never seen there before. Which was fun. I mean, yeah. Now, previously when I was on Leaf Springs and Link Steering, it would have sucked. But that hydro steering, it's just like oh yeah, just having a good time, just nice, easy cruises through there.

SPEAKER_05 32:30

The last fall when we were over there and we were back in the back where you know Court had to pull me over so I could, you know, get fuel to the pickup because I forgot to put fuel on it. Um I had never been back in there, so that's all sorts of hidden, hidden little shit back there. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 32:47

And that that's kind of what we did later in the day, Saturdays. I just took them to the little honey holes that I knew of, and we just kind of jumped around.

SPEAKER_05 32:57

That's always nice when you got a little bit smaller group that you can go do that.

SPEAKER_03 33:00

Yeah. Because when we were at the beatdown and we had the rollover, my plan was to take you next onto that ridgeline trail that Dave's talking about, but didn't work out.

SPEAKER_05 33:14

Yeah, there's always next time.

SPEAKER_01 33:16

Yep. But there's I mean, there's all sorts of little hidden gems back over there, back by that that one rock face that Chris was talking about. That that one rock that uh squealed on. Yeah. That I mean that that little area is always fun too. I don't even remember how to get there, I don't think.

SPEAKER_03 33:41

But we stayed out of the back side of the quarry just because it was so wet. Yeah. We didn't even touch that part of the park, so yeah, the whole massive that entire weekend. We did find out talking around the campfire Friday night that I've been going to the Badlands since Dustin's been in high school, so that that that made me feel old.

SPEAKER_01 34:06

Well, yeah. Ricky, I uh I would have been in high school too. I'm only a couple more months, a couple months older than him.

SPEAKER_02 34:13

So Ricky, I really can't give you that much shit about being at a much older me because you're only what 10 years older than me. 10 years, yep.

SPEAKER_03 34:21

Yeah, so 1998 was when I first started going there.

SPEAKER_05 34:27

Oh god, then I had a year high school left. I said I just graduated.

SPEAKER_02 34:33

All right, well, Ricky, I graduated high school in 2003.

SPEAKER_04 34:37

That's the that's that's when I started going to school. I didn't know you were that much younger than me, uh Dustin. Yeah. I'm checking 41 than May. I said I got married in 2003. I got married in 2000. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 34:49

So my daughter was born in 2002.

SPEAKER_05 34:52

Mine too.

SPEAKER_03 34:53

My youngest.

SPEAKER_05 34:54

My oldest. So well, guys, we've we've avoided the subject. We've we've danced around it enough. Should we uh put Court in the spotlight? Put him in the spotlight and let him uh plead his case.

SPEAKER_02 35:11

What's your got the Mexican burger thing you're building?

SPEAKER_04 35:15

Court, what do you got going on? So, since the last episode we discussed the YJ build. Uh, since then, an opportunity came in front of me to move into an 08 recovery green JK. So the YJ moved to the mezzanine, and I started stripping the JK over the weekend. So I guess we took the body two weeks ago, we took the body off of it.

SPEAKER_05 35:47

Well, we'll back up a minute.

SPEAKER_04 35:49

Oh, you want to back up a minute?

SPEAKER_05 35:50

So one of our listeners, everybody knows that. I don't know how everybody knows of Ben. Ben Chappelli, who works for Four Four by Innovations. He's the owner's right-hand man. But next door to 4 By Innovations is Um Rip It Toeing, or Rips Toeing, excuse me, Rips Towing, um, which is a buddy of Ben's. And they had this rescue green jeep there that posted it probably a month or two ago.

SPEAKER_04 36:22

Like two months ago, they had put it and and I've been just like drooling on it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 36:27

And I had messaged Ben and I said, Hey. Well, I said it apart.

SPEAKER_04 36:32

One night I sent it to you, I'm like, hey, I want this.

SPEAKER_05 36:35

And I had already messaged Ben saying, Hey, what are you doing? What do you want for the frame and the body? Because I had an idea for a project. Just for something to do. And you did another project here. We don't have enough projects. Right. I just we're getting there. So uh Ben says, Well, I'll I'll get I'll talk to to Derek, who owns Rip's Towing, and we'll I'll get back to you. And then Ben was over at the shop bringing some complete off-roads. Rich Rich's other company, Key City Plating, does plating for four-by-invasion. So Ben brought over some parts to get plated, and we were talking, and um I had to come home and tell Court that um hey, uh, I don't want your anxiety to go through the roof here, but what would you think about doing if if you had the opportunity to do a rescue green JK? That's how it started.

SPEAKER_04 37:36

It goes, hey, what if your project changed directions?

SPEAKER_05 37:39

Yeah, you're right.

SPEAKER_04 37:40

That's how I said that's how I was I'd already bought, so like last time we talked about all the parts I was going to order. They're here. I ordered those and they're here. Um, so there's there's a pretty palette, pretty big pile of parts that I I dumped some coin on. And he's like, what if we change the direction of your I said, what if you had the opportunity to change the direction? And I was like, what are you talking about? Like, we just got the plan figured out.

SPEAKER_05 38:06

And I said, Well, Ben says that the tub and frame of that green Jeep are gonna be our problem. Because they want to see what we'll do with it. And his face went blank. He was like speechless for about 30 seconds.

SPEAKER_04 38:20

I it took it took me a couple days to make my to kind of decide what I wanted to do, honestly. Because I've I was pretty set on the YJ, the stretched YJ setup and the way I had it planned out. But I've always since those came out, I've wanted that Jeep. Like since 07.

SPEAKER_05 38:38

And then you had to go to you, you were on the road for a week for work. And I had to I had to do the customary, you know, Dave Hansen empty trailer picture going to work. And there, of course, in the chat everybody's like, oh, what are you going after? You know, what are you picking up? Well, I had a snow drag that we had to I had to get out of the behind completely off-road there, so I took a picture of that. And it was on the front of the trailer, and Ben was the only one who knew that I was coming on over to get the Jeep. Because they already he already had the front axle sold, and I said, Well, can you leave it under there till I get it to our shop? And then we'll take apart, we'll bring the parts back, but at least it's easier to transport. He goes, Yeah, that saves me time. Uh so they had already pulled the motor, training, transfer case out because they had those sold. Well, they had the motor and tranny sold. Um they still have if anybody's looking for a rock trek, uh was that 241 OR or whatever, the Rubicon transfer case. Ben's got one for sale. Uh anyways.

SPEAKER_01 39:48

Oh, not to cut you off, but those will bolt directly to an AW4. Yes. You just gotta you just gotta mess with your shifter linkage because it shifts backwards. So all you XJ guys they're a great upgrade for an XJ. Well, but you don't have to get a slip yoke eliminator because it's already there.

SPEAKER_05 40:10

Yep.

SPEAKER_03 40:11

So they'll bolt up to a 518 also.

SPEAKER_05 40:14

Yep. They'll bolt up to a lot of different really. Uh so I'm picking, we're loading it up, and Ben's like, so how are we telling Cord about this? Because Cord didn't know that it was a done deal yet. I said, Well, I'll tell you what, I said, as as I'm leaving, when I hit the highway up there, I said, just take a picture. And so that's I didn't even know he had done it because he'd gone back inside. It was cold and windy that night, that evening, and I got home. Um, that was a whole nother you guys already have heard about the whole story of the the Duramax limping home, but uh I get the first thing I saw was a text from court going sneaky sneaky, sneaky sneaky, and I'm like, what are you talking about? I'm still playing it off, not knowing that Ben had put the picture up. So then we got home this weekend. You tore it apart. Well, no.

SPEAKER_04 41:07

Last weekend we tore. We cleaned it out. That was a it was a disaster. So we cleaned it out. Uh 55 gallon drum worth of cigarette cartons and dirty socks and all sorts of random shit. Uh cleaned that out. Uh founted one here for days. Seven or twenty-eight ducks. I think you're up to twenty-eight ducks. 28 ducks in it.

SPEAKER_05 41:34

Uh now, two of these were previous owners. The 26 other ones Ben had planted in various spots for Court to find. All over the place. Like there was ducks everywhere. And they're not like the bigger ones, they're like the little tiny ones. Yeah, they're like dime size.

SPEAKER_04 41:49

Everywhere.

SPEAKER_02 41:51

So he pulled a Dave and I what we did to Kyle. Yes.

SPEAKER_04 41:54

Yes. Yeah, there's there's ducks in the gas cap. There's I pulled all the padding off of the roll cage. There's ducks stuffed inside there. I mean, there was ducks.

SPEAKER_05 42:03

Every time he would find one, I'd be like, Where'd you find it? And he'd be like, Oh, I found it here. I was like, okay, there's still another one. Because I knew where there was one at that I had seen under the hood. Court hadn't looked under the hood yet, and so I just left it there until Court found it.

SPEAKER_01 42:16

Yeah, there's well that's like that's like Kyle. We put like a dozen ducks in his airbox. He filled that airbox full. And he didn't find them for like a year and a half until he went to change his air filter.

SPEAKER_02 42:31

The better part of that unibody and everything. We crammed ducks everywhere in that Jeep.

SPEAKER_05 42:37

The better part of that was every time he would find one, he'd sit over the trailer and his brother would grab it and put it back somewhere. Hide it again.

SPEAKER_01 42:44

He was putting them in his bed.

SPEAKER_05 42:46

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 42:48

At home. Yes. At home. At home. But it's Kyle's fault for leaving and going to town and leaving his Jeep unattended.

SPEAKER_05 42:55

Right. That's a no-no. That seemed weird, though. I ended up with a big inflatable duck in the back of the scout when I went to pick the truck up the next scout up the next day.

SPEAKER_04 43:03

Well, that the big inflatable duck that was in my yard. Your skeleton duck came from Ben. Came from Ben.

SPEAKER_05 43:08

Ben has a Ben has a pastime of giving court ducks. But anyways.

SPEAKER_04 43:13

So then uh over this weekend, we pulled the axles out of it. We pulled the the bumpers and stuff. All of a sudden these go back to those guys we pulled off this weekend. And then I started cutting all the different started stripping another frame, you know, since I didn't.

SPEAKER_05 43:31

He's getting good at it, so anybody needs a frame strip, call court.

SPEAKER_04 43:34

Yeah. So strip started stripping the the next frame down. So hopefully this weekend I've got at least one day I've got uh obligations. But maybe we'll start putting it back together. You might have got farther, but we ended up on a rescue mission. Yeah, we had some other side side quest quests we had to go on. Yeah, hopefully, hopefully we'll start putting it back together. So I don't feel like I'm too far behind right now. I mean, before I had five foot of jeep frame and that's about it, and now I've got a frame to strip and you don't have the you don't have to paint it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 44:09

Paint it. We got some floor work to do. Rico, we need you to come up and do patching floors. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 44:15

A couple floor patches to do.

SPEAKER_01 44:17

Oh boy. Do a pole barn garage style, some license plates and self-tappers.

SPEAKER_05 44:22

He already ordered replacement ones. He's, you know. Jesus. Jeep life.

SPEAKER_04 44:27

Dude, you can you're not gonna get ducks if you just put license plates in your floor. You gotta do it upright.

SPEAKER_03 44:33

Seam sealer can cover a lot. That's all I'm gonna say. You've seen my video.

SPEAKER_04 44:38

I'm gonna seam sealer.

SPEAKER_03 44:39

Put it in there, put it in there.

SPEAKER_04 44:41

And then I'm gonna do bedliner or something. I'm gonna spray a bunch of shit on it. So it should be covered up. The overall plan has not changed. No, plan's not. I mean, everything's that I bought is still gonna get used.

SPEAKER_05 44:53

Super duties, four-link front and rear, LS drivetrain. The only thing you're not using is the the YJ tub, the what brand the rust not rusty, what's the the side, motobilt sides? Motorbuilt sides and the what's the frame pieces?

SPEAKER_04 45:09

The two by four stuff I bought. Yeah. And then the naves customs unlimited. Yep.

SPEAKER_05 45:15

Some of that will live on in the future. Because uh part of this was I told Court I would I would buy those parts not the motorbuilt sides, we don't know what we're doing with those yet. So if somebody needs some motor built uncut sides, there's no wheel wells or nothing in them for a YJ, there's gonna be YJ TJ.

SPEAKER_04 45:33

YJ, CJ, YJ, or TJ, I think they said they fit. I would give you a deal on them.

SPEAKER_03 45:39

We might do some business on those.

SPEAKER_05 45:41

Yeah, I would give you a deal. Oh, that would work for bed, yeah. Then you're gonna give in to Dustin and do bed sides.

SPEAKER_03 45:46

I want to build a TJ later on down the road.

SPEAKER_05 45:49

Yep. Well, my plan is I'm going to take you've got to get my square body done first.

SPEAKER_02 45:57

Oh, it's yours now.

SPEAKER_05 45:58

I think you I think there's a lot of people ahead of you in line for that one there, Dustin.

SPEAKER_03 46:03

Well, you know, I I may die before you, and you can buy it for what Kelly thinks I got in it. You'll get a hell of a deal.

SPEAKER_05 46:09

Right.

SPEAKER_03 46:10

About a thousand bucks.

SPEAKER_05 46:11

I'll take no I'll tell Kelly what's really in it when you're gone. That way she gets a you know.

SPEAKER_03 46:16

There you go. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 46:18

She gets enough to live on to retire on. So I'm gonna take the the YJ parts and we're gonna mill we're gonna build a YJ T.

SPEAKER_04 46:28

Those are only for YJ.

SPEAKER_05 46:30

They'll work on a TJ. They're uncut. It'll work. They're uncut.

SPEAKER_04 46:35

Yeah, if you uncut them, they're side panels, you can put them on. But they're the 15-inch stretch ones. Yep. So they're the 15-inch stretch ones.

SPEAKER_05 46:41

You can do it on limited. Yes. Have more room. Dustin would almost be able to sleep in the back of unlimited.

SPEAKER_02 46:51

Dude, I can sleep in the back of my super duty.

SPEAKER_05 46:54

I can sleep in the backseat of a crew cab Chevy. I've done it.

SPEAKER_01 47:01

Yeah, you're like a half inch shorter than me.

SPEAKER_05 47:03

We're the same height.

SPEAKER_01 47:04

I had Ricky convinced that I was sleeping in the backseat of the mega cab.

SPEAKER_05 47:08

There's probably enough room in there. Those things are big.

SPEAKER_01 47:12

They are. Yeah, but I'm also 6'4, Chris. You can sleep in it comfortably.

SPEAKER_04 47:18

Yeah, that'd be a tight squeeze.

SPEAKER_05 47:20

I didn't say it would be comfortable, but I said there'd be big.

SPEAKER_01 47:23

It's weird. Every time I go to Harlan, I end up sleeping on a fucking futon.

SPEAKER_05 47:29

That is not my fault.

SPEAKER_01 47:31

I know it's not.

SPEAKER_05 47:32

We're not gonna go there.

SPEAKER_02 47:34

I know it's well it's like this last trip to Batlands. I'm like, I don't know. Ricky wants me to sleep in his camper. I don't know if I can I don't know if he's gonna like physically touch me or something. But I laid down there and 30 degrees. I'm like, this is nice. And then what was it? Saturday I wake up. He's sitting there eating a breakfast sandwich, staring at me. I was not staring at you. Gotta wake up and like, what's up, bud? He's like, Oh, not much.

SPEAKER_05 48:11

You got a pretty mouth.

SPEAKER_03 48:15

You were sleeping on the table. I didn't have much choice.

SPEAKER_02 48:18

Yeah, you had a you had a step stool to sit on, and you sit there and eat your sandwich, you'd be like, Well, I guess uh this drunk idiot's gonna wake up eventually.

SPEAKER_05 48:27

Well, I know we have some things that we aren't gonna talk about here that are Patreon material. And between the three time three different recordings to patch together here, I think we got about an hour. Anything else we want to talk about before we kick it over to Patreon?

SPEAKER_03 48:49

I think we needed to give you the floor and you can talk about core for a little bit.

SPEAKER_05 48:54

Yeah, we know the dates.

SPEAKER_03 48:55

See if we can drive drive up some.

SPEAKER_05 48:57

So um I can't even think of the top of my head what the date. First weekend of October, core. Uh, if anybody listen to this needs, I think I've got like three applications so far. Gotta get those in so we can get our lucky 13 and then do the social media vote like we did years past. I'll pull it up and find out what the dates are. The cutoff date.

SPEAKER_02 49:23

I think it's I've not sent my application in yet.

SPEAKER_05 49:25

You don't you don't get to send one in.

SPEAKER_02 49:29

Oh, let's just let the cat out of the back there, Mr.

SPEAKER_05 49:33

Everybody knows who nobody ever wonders who the cronies are.

SPEAKER_03 49:36

We we already talked about that email. Remember, you tried to pull that ship and wait that at a couple. No, no, no.

SPEAKER_02 49:42

I talked to Chris on the way over to Badlands and said, Don't say anything to Ricky.

SPEAKER_05 49:47

And as soon as I till the email comes out.

SPEAKER_02 49:50

I got an email from about that one.

SPEAKER_05 49:52

Well, that's why I knew you would be under pressure, so I like I'm a well just we'll let that out. So yes. Ricky, Dustin, Dave, Court, Geyer, and Chad are the the cronies, as is better known. We can't use that other term because it's it's it's been uh we'll talk about it on Patreon. It's been an issue, it's been an issue at the shop, so okay. I'll tell you off-air.

SPEAKER_03 50:27

You played that pretty good though. You you you knocked the wind out of my cells, I'm not gonna lie. When we talked about it and you're like, well, you're gonna have to reapply. You gotta be shitting me. You're gonna have to buy some tires, Rick.

SPEAKER_04 50:41

Now I coil over resistance. So by August 1st, Augustations are required to be in. Um if you want the link, you can go to complete off-road, click on the link, and then you'll get the review on pick 13.

SPEAKER_05 50:57

We're gonna start, and we're gonna there's gonna be uh more of a social media push here now that we're kind of into the you know, it's mid-April wheeling season. We'll start pushing a little bit more on it in some more ideas. We're back at complete off-road ranch, just like years one and one and two and three. Yeah. Um, so can we camp at the bottom of the hill?

SPEAKER_02 51:23

Because I really don't like that driveway.

SPEAKER_05 51:24

Oh, you big baby. You can camp wherever you want. You've never you've never hauled your own stuff to there to the ranch.

SPEAKER_02 51:36

Alright, here we go.

SPEAKER_05 51:38

Either ranch.

SPEAKER_03 51:40

Yeah, he did.

SPEAKER_04 51:41

I'm hopefully gonna pull my Jeep up the up the hill with my tundra.

SPEAKER_03 51:48

Core 24, he hauled the toyota up there. No, he didn't.

SPEAKER_05 51:53

Yeah, yeah. 24 he did, you're right, cuz because Dave couldn't make it. Yep.

SPEAKER_02 51:58

That you hold my shit in the first core, Vance hold my shit. And then it was Dave, when you hold my shit, we made it down to the bottom of the hill without the gooseneck hooked up.

SPEAKER_04 52:08

That could have been real bad real fast.

SPEAKER_02 52:10

That was enough weight, there was enough weight all that.

SPEAKER_05 52:12

Yeah, that pen, it was coming off that pen, so but we get down to the highway, he's like, Did you hook the trailer up?

SPEAKER_02 52:19

I'm like, No, did you? He's like, No, that's your job. Oh shit. Like, no, it's not my job.

SPEAKER_05 52:24

Wait, the passengers have the passengers have responsibilities? No. Passenger apprentices don't have responsibilities. I'll tell you this, just in case you don't want Court and Cody being your co being your navigators through Louisville.

SPEAKER_04 52:40

I was sleeping.

SPEAKER_05 52:41

You'll end up at the airport. At the drop off with a with a 36-foot gooseneck and two rigs. I was sleeping. That's not my fault.

SPEAKER_02 52:51

Um, when we were when we were headed to Harlan last time when we all went, Ricky uh had Vance and Otter in the truck. We're just cruising, hit indie, talking, bullshitting. Next thing I know, we're pulling into the fucking terminal for Indianapolis International Airport. Oh. I'm like, what are we doing?

SPEAKER_03 53:16

Wrong lane. Yep, exactly what lane is. I know I know exactly what you're talking about.

SPEAKER_02 53:23

And we're we went through the terminal like the drop off with my super duty and a gooseneck trailer with two rigs on it.

SPEAKER_05 53:34

I bet that really got people looking. Uh you know what? Let's circle back here. Um, I guess he he's a crony, but he's also a host. Um, Cody is taking care of day one. I don't know where we're gonna be. I don't know what we're gonna do. I know where we'd like to go, but it is too far between the complete off-road ranch and that property to go. But that date, I will get to you guys. You guys should come over for that weekend for a stump jumper run at that property.

unknown 54:05

Okay.

SPEAKER_05 54:06

I am told that it is um a lot like it's it's kind of somewhere between Good Evening Ranch and Rich's place, the complete off-road ranch.

SPEAKER_02 54:18

Nice. So I will grab the truck and trailer and snug up Dave's buggy and we'll come.

SPEAKER_04 54:25

Yeah, that bring it that'll bring the bouncer too. I want to drive the bouncer.

SPEAKER_01 54:29

You're not driving any of my shit.

SPEAKER_04 54:31

You're gonna have your own drive.

SPEAKER_02 54:33

I get to drive the bouncer before you do.

SPEAKER_04 54:35

I drive like Miss Daisy.

SPEAKER_02 54:37

No, you don't.

SPEAKER_04 54:38

You drive like Helen Keller. You don't do that.

SPEAKER_03 54:43

You cower up when somebody says hop in and take it for a drive. Exactly.

SPEAKER_04 54:46

I'm not gonna break someone else's stuff. Don't want to break someone else's stuff.

SPEAKER_02 54:52

When it's his own rigging, somebody says send it. He says, get the fuck out of the way. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 54:59

He says he's gonna be trying to be a little more of a finesse driver with this one, but we'll see.

SPEAKER_01 55:04

He's gonna need to be because he's gonna get himself in a lot of trouble if he doesn't. Oh, yeah. He'll figure out or be okay with body damage.

SPEAKER_05 55:14

I he's okay with body damage. We already know it is what it is.

SPEAKER_04 55:17

It's rusty anyway.

SPEAKER_05 55:19

Rusty anyway. The only thing he's gonna worry about is if he cracks his angry girl, angry eye girls.

SPEAKER_04 55:25

Yeah, I don't want to crack my angry eye girl or knock my ducks off the dash. I'm gonna do them on.

SPEAKER_03 55:31

You're putting square headlights in it.

SPEAKER_05 55:33

Well, that cat's out of the back.

SPEAKER_02 55:36

I'm gonna take my hammer that's in my toolbox and smack it.

SPEAKER_05 55:39

Man, the angry grills look so tough. I told him that we I told him that we were gonna make sure he retained his square headlight mafia status.

SPEAKER_04 55:49

So I think I'm gonna take the fenders and stuff, front fenders off of it and do tubes.

SPEAKER_05 55:57

We were we were already holding the this the YJ grill up there and kind of thinking where we gotta cut it and do some massaging to it.

SPEAKER_01 56:06

So it might end up being like a eight or a nine-slot grill, but I bet you could do it.

SPEAKER_05 56:11

Uh actually, we can slice it. We know we're able to slice it so that it stays a seven-slot grill.

SPEAKER_00 56:17

Really?

SPEAKER_05 56:18

Yeah. It's gonna take it's it's gonna take some work. I'm gonna have a few nights in it, but it'll be worth it.

SPEAKER_03 56:24

Well, Jen Rai makes a seven-slot YJ style grill for a buggy.

SPEAKER_00 56:29

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 56:29

You could probably well. This is coming from a guy that put a uh YJ front end on the Comanche truck.

SPEAKER_05 56:35

So I think hey, just be glad that he uh that I got a YJ tub to build. No, it was it was there might have been a Toyota with a YJ hook grill on it. When you still have a Toyota, Dave, the look on Dave's face.

SPEAKER_03 56:54

When he put the short out with the JK body, he almost woke up with a horse head next to him. I mean getting close. Threatened to kick him out of the mouth.

SPEAKER_05 57:04

He did. He's like, what are you doing? Ricky was like, Ricky, you were the only one to catch on to that.

SPEAKER_02 57:11

Honestly, I'm I'm Dave will side with me on this one. Yeah. I know Dave will side with me on this one. Court. We're disappointed in you. Exactly. We're we're disappointed in you. We understand where you're coming from, but we're disappointed.

SPEAKER_04 57:32

It's it's all good. I I'm good at disappointing people. I've been doing it my whole life.

SPEAKER_02 57:37

I have a I have a toilet or that you can have.

SPEAKER_04 57:42

I'm not switching plans again. It's too late.

SPEAKER_02 57:44

I was from it's not solid. From day one, though. Except for all the places that it's not. Yeah, it's mid-glass solid. I have solid, it's just not solid.

SPEAKER_05 57:58

I keep telling him, hey, should we run it? Should we run over to Dave's and pick up that that mountaineer drivetrain that run a Ford drive train?

SPEAKER_02 58:07

Yes.

SPEAKER_05 58:08

And he keeps talking himself out of it.

SPEAKER_02 58:10

So it'd be a lot cooler if he did. Yeah, that sounds so cool.

SPEAKER_04 58:16

You guys, you're killing me.

SPEAKER_02 58:18

It would sound so cool if I had a Toyota four-cylinder in it.

SPEAKER_01 58:22

I called Court and told him after him talking about that 3RZ, that needs to go in a Jeep.

SPEAKER_04 58:30

Yeah, looked up, it sold. That was the whole it was the motor, transmission, transfer case, and the whole watering harness for like 30,500 bucks. It was a really good deal. I mean, it was a great deal. We talked about that either the YJT or the the uh because that'd be the ultimate thing to just piss people off. That would be awesome, didn't you? Because you pissed the Jeep people off and the Toyota people off at the same time. But all all the purest ones.

SPEAKER_05 59:03

It would be great to go to it would be great to go to the Jeep Purist. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 59:09

That's the purest Jeep people that are putting bad toys on fucking automobiles.

SPEAKER_05 59:13

It'd be fun to go like McGrath Jeep Knight or something like that and open the hood, there's Toyota over the hood. Bang old Toyota logo right on it. So well, let's kick this over to the Patreon.

unknown 59:24

Alrighty.

SPEAKER_05 59:25

Everybody, get some applications in. It's not that intimidating thing to come to core. It's a blast. It's fun. And uh Ricky, did you get your video done?

No, I've been uh floating Matt Sunday. Oh, that's right. All right, we've been playing Hug Finn.

SPEAKER_05 59:41

Yep, that's right. You were you're floating on the river, so but Ricky Ed and Dave, Dustin, you guys are gonna be up to do this too. Um just a short about your experience at complete off-road experience that we can put out there so that people will understand that this is not some big intimidating thing.

SPEAKER_02 1:00:05

It's not it's as extreme as you want it to be. That's a video that you want me to make, and your wife is still requiring me to make a video I completely forgot about.

SPEAKER_05 1:00:16

And uh, you asked to do the other one.

SPEAKER_02 1:00:18

Uh I know, and I completely forgot about it. That's fine. Whenever we get to it. Tell my girlfriend I said sorry. So uh, but yes, I will get that done this hopefully this weekend, and get them both sent off to you.

SPEAKER_05 1:00:34

Whenever you get them done.

SPEAKER_02 1:00:36

SPEAKER_05 1:00:53

SPEAKER_04 1:00:59

I we told them nine, so we've got three minutes.

SPEAKER_05 1:01:03

We'll start early.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:05

Well, it's almost my bedtime and it's past rich.

SPEAKER_05 1:01:08

SPEAKER_05 1:01:14

So you're still you're you're in Central.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:16

But I'm an old soul, so I go to bed early.

SPEAKER_05 1:01:20

Or if you're going wheeling somewhere and want us to come along, reach out, let us know, and we'll say we're gonna make it, then we may or may not make it. Catch you next time.

SPEAKER_01 1:01:39

I got one, I got one thing. Dave, um you guys made it this far. So let's keep posting some stuff on the Facebook page. We haven't been very good about it. But if you're spamming us with your page shit and just reposting it, and you continue to do it, I've already deleted some five posts.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:09

Yeah, don't if you want to post a shit, cool. That's fine. I don't care. But don't send a link to speed hole or whatever the hell it is. Make your own post.

SPEAKER_05 1:02:22

Like it's it's it's an invite group.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:27

I like that there's traffic on there, but when there's one person reposting shit from their own page, it it's not what it's designed for. So we'll we'll just leave it at that. You've been warned. So Dave's an asshole.

SPEAKER_05 1:02:46

With that, we'll see you next time. We're not sure what it is, but there will be a next time. Oh yeah, it's not gonna play that. Just think about the music here. It's playing.
