Thanks, man!DinoStroker wrote:Mabrook Chafik. I'll bet you're proud to see your new baby come to life. Just make sure everything works as it should and give the Jeep an extended shakedown road test to see if there are any remaining creases that need to be ironed out. Once you're confident in the Jeep's reliability on the road, you can then test it in the desert.SSS wrote:
Thanks guys for the good wishes and congrats!!!
Now I need to make Sluggy "trip ready" as per our high safety standards ASAP ... can't wait to see you all in the desert again!
Not that the shisha tuesday is bad ... not at all ... but God, I MISS THE DESERT!
( ... most likely I have to visit some newbie classes, then lead some, before claiming horse and rider to be back in top form)
"A new interesting and challenging phase has started:
Sluggy needs to learn how to get nursed. Changing diapers needs to be learned by me. We have to go through the difficult and sleepless time of teething ... and we have to go through all the vaccinations to prevent any serious illnesses."
I completely agree with you !
Update of the last ToDo list :
done :
- transmission shifter adjustment!
- spal frh ho kit wired in ... but not connected to the gm pcm yet, have to figure out fan#1 or fan#2 ... hmmm ...
- transmission cooler wired up , including thermoswitch! buttt ... placed switch at transmission ... will provide photo soon
- Sluggy went to Sahara for some exhaust work today ... on a recovery truck ... too loud and no leak tests yet ... better like this. Exhaust supposed to be done tomorrow. We will see...
(ooops ... forgot to tell Sahara to fabricate a custom coolant overflow bottle ... told them only to get 2x 2.5" flexpipes to be put in front of the Y pipe)
rest still pending ... (but not for long ISA)
