ha yeah that happens. Well I did some work today. I got my seat mounts started and driver side all in before I discovered that the passenger seat doesn't fit So gonna have to chop part of the rearmost of my tunnel and see if I can't get it to fit in all the way. By mudmainac3 at 2012-05-13 By mudmainac3 at 2012-05-13 cage is also partially painted By mudmainac3 at 2012-05-13 then I drove it about a mile kept playing with my cases's wheeled over a curb and some small tree stumps. I'm pretty set on the fact I will have to change my brakes over to power brakes not manual brakes because it does not stop very well with the 40's By mudmainac3 at 2012-05-13

Ok did some work after work. I installed my hubs on the scout so its officially 4wd now. boom goes the dynamite By mudmainac3 at 2012-05-14 I then decided time to clean some wiring so mounted my ignition switch and tied up all the wires and here is a shot of the gas pedal By mudmainac3 at 2012-05-14 I also mounted my ecu finally and cleaned up the wiring across the dash. next is to install the stereo, turn signals need wired, heater needs wired in, and tach wired in. By mudmainac3 at 2012-05-14 I then sat in the passenger seat for awhile lookin out on the world. can't wait for this thing to be done.

ok well finally took the scout for its first tsf brownscamp run. she did awesome. didn't brake but did find a few things I need to fix or figure out and i may have a rear ring and pinion on the way out no big deal it. here are a few photo's I will have more from a buddy soon. We ran firebreak 5 up to saddle up, to airplane hill, to backside of 7up, to hogsback through archers firebreak to canopener. it was packed took archers to waterfall some old man blew a heater core line and just left his truck in the middle of the trail so back to camp with a broken toyota in tow. Then we did a night run up firebreak 5 up to crushers into airplane again. Then sunday did run through the crushers then to airplane where I finally tried and got denied and dented up the rear quarter panel.

here are a few pics from firebreak 5 on sat morning By mudmainac3 at 2012-05-27 By mudmainac3 at 2012-05-27 By mudmainac3 at 2012-05-27 Here is one from airplane. I got denied but only saw 2 tubed based buggy's make it up and 1 linked toyota so didn't feel to bad I did smash my rear quarter up on looks flared out. By mudmainac3 at 2012-05-27 Here is on our way back to camp from canopener to brownscamp. the blue toyotas fuel pump went out so we towed it back and then his caliper started leaking so I had to hook a strap behind him to stop him from smashing into the back of the other toyota By mudmainac3 at 2012-05-27 there is a real deep hole by firebreak 5 if you arent careful you could roll into it. 4 inch's more and it was another 2 foot drop off By mudmainac3 at 2012-05-27 By mudmainac3 at 2012-05-27

well I washed the ol gal today looks like I pulled the bottome to studs on the rear diff out and need to replace them with bolts. I also have a leaky front and rear pinion seal and for some reason the hubs or the tcase won't come out of 4 cause the front driveline spins when I drive it.

well figured out why my front driveline was not spinning freely in 2wd with the hubs unlocked By mudmainac3 at 2012-05-28 broke my hub locking gear in multiple places
