yeah man nice work. Go drive it more.
I both want to see the link to that 80 and also don't want to see the link to that 80 because then I might end up with an 80SET IT ON FIRE, BUY AN 80. There’s a nice one for sale in your neck of the hoods for 2X of what you’re about to put in your truck. I think that rig was just a bad seed.
At the same time, it is a 30+ year old truck.I both want to see the link to that 80 and also don't want to see the link to that 80 because then I might end up with an 80
I'm leaning toward putting a timing chain into it myself.
Lesson learned: don't buy a 💩📦 from Townsend
Wow! That looks pretty solid overall.For Sale - Sold - 1997 LX450 - Bend OR
Finally decided to sell. Again. For the 3rd time. Each time couldn't bring myself to do it. Just no more time to use/wrench with small kiddo and crazy work. Located in Bend, OR so really just posting here on the off-chance someone has contacts in Bend that may be interested. Craigslist add...risingsun4x4club.org
Converting to metal backed guide and never needing attention again is bull. My conversion only lasted 50k.Just the timing chain kit is about $160. If I wanted to upgrade to dual row timing chain and metal chain guides that will never need repair,
It was literally a "I was just driving along" situation. Stopped at a red light, loud clunk, engine died and dash board lit up. It was mid winter and I'd just pulled off the highway after driving back home from skiing solo.That's pretty gnarly, Dave! What did you do to those poor guides?! 😂
