As I hammer out tons of work at night I can't help my mind from wondering to my lift that could be done already with all my parts at home staring at me as I sleep during the day :banghead:

Isn't there some sort of way to postpone Mothers Day this weekend? :roll:

Don't sweat it...it'll probably be raining this weekend anyway. Seems Like we get one dry day a week, just enough to spend my free time mowing the grass! Pffffttttt!

I think I saw a UFO on my way to work this morning, big bright, blinding light in the sky. Someone at work mentioned it might be called... "the Sun" or something like that :mrgreen:

Be spending the evening at church trying to catch up on grass cutting/bush trimming there while we have a dry day

I've almost forgot what a dry day is...
There is something up in the sky up here as well!
Can't hardly see it looking up through the tall grass but almost
need some goats, got any extra Tahoe?
Hope its dry Saturday and Sunday

I saw the same yellowish/orange glow in the sky this am! I had to stop and wonder for a moment what in the heck that darn thing was. Then I remember from some time ago the ancients called it "the sun", very nice to see it in person finally! But then that also reminds me quickly of how much work I could of got done on my KJ over the past 2 days :banghead:

Been watching the weather channel like an addicted fool the past couple of days, Saturday is supposed to be scattered showers, Sunday is to be rain free but cloudy and the rest of next week is supposed to be rain! :banghead:

By the way Tom, my coworker told me that guy is still in the house and hasn't seen them move anything out :shock:

He also mentioned to me this morning he IS bringing in that dolly Friday for us to use :pepper:

Which also reminds me, ya might want to call the police and let them know some crap may be going down Sat morning, I wont be in any mood to deal with fools :ROTFL:

Should I leave my grease war paint on my face to really scare him? :jester:

I could also bring a chain so we can drag his crap to the street while reminding him he is trespassing :JEEPIN:

I am serious, I would call the cops and let them know what's going on. They will have a squad car there Saturday morning to make sure they are out of YOUR house and we wont have any problems. As of right now they are squatters. :evil:

OR deal with the the cops and doing it on Friday some time so Saturday goes smooth.......

tommudd · **Posted:** Thu May 05, 2011 11:26 pm

Saturday???
I have to get at least three big loads out there before I'm even ready for you to show up Saturday if not we're dead in the water. :banghead:

I figure I'll move until midnight or One AM then call it a night

I wish I would have known that, I would of high tailed it over there after work this am to lend a hand today also :banghead:

tommudd · **Posted:** Fri May 06, 2011 8:42 am

I have to work half a day today, well 5 hours so won't start until noon, but then without knowing if they are gone, still there or what I'm sitting waiting. Have an email into my realtor to see if she can come up with anything. :juggle:

Megalos · **Posted:** Fri May 06, 2011 10:27 am

WTF!!! Get out of the house already!!!! I'd say they're trespassing at this point and the police should remove them. As for their stuff, they should be fined (payable to you) for having it removed!

Tell them I said to GTFO already! ....if you think it will help. :furious:

Megalos · **Posted:** Fri May 06, 2011 8:45 pm

Got my new shoes today. BFG ATKOs 235/85s...all 5 installed with all that road hazard coverage for under a grand.

There's some rubbing in the front which will be fixed when I trim the bumper. As for power, I didn't really notice any difference from the line or while cruising..though I'm sure it's there. Perhaps my enthusiasm for these new tires is distracting me. Seems like such a big jump from the 235/70s that were on there but I'm just not seeing any negatives right now.

Oh look outside...rain and hail. Guess the sunny days are over til the next lawn mowing.

tommudd · **Posted:** Fri May 06, 2011 9:07 pm

First big load into the garage, :BANANA:

few items in the house, :lol:

cleaned up their mess :banghead:

They didn't clean a thing just moved out and left their dirt behind !! :furious:

Excellent! If that stupid swing set is still there I would chop it up for firewood! Anything left behind is now yours if ya want any of it , we could have a sweet bonfire Saturday :pepper:

tommudd · **Posted:** Fri May 06, 2011 11:01 pm

All they left me was dirt and huge pile of sand right in the middle of the back yard. You would think they could of least cleaned the gunk out of the fridge!
Oh well its cleaner now, not super clean but clean enough to move in!

With yours you won't notice as much until you're on the open highway cruising along at say 70, and go to pass or speed up, but manuals take to larger tires a little better than automatics do

RayRayLRdisco · **Posted:** Sat May 07, 2011 12:44 am

looks GREAT! im still stuck between going with the 235-85-16 or 265-75-16 for my Rover. the 16x8 wheels make me lean towards the 265's. but im 95% sure im going with the BFG AT KO also

i had the 235-85-16 Firestone Destination MT's on my Libby and i loved them, size was perfect

Tomm...I'm glad they finally got out of there. Maybe in there haste to get out the left something valuable behind...box of gold dubloons in a bedroom closet, original Van Gough behind a bathroom door, etc. At least now you can start making it your own (and Harts :lol:

).

Hart...I'm dying to get those rails test fitted so I can figure out your "fix". Then, on a sunny day :ROTFL:

I can get them painted up and installed. Can you give me some details on what you used for your bracket/shim. In the picture it looks much bigger than would be needed (to my eyes) Is it bolted into the frame at other points than the old mounting holes? Any info would help.

RayRay...I love the BFGs and since I'm mostly on road they're a good fit for me. These are my third set of BFGs on vehicles and they've never let me down. If you have room for the 265s I go that way though...It just wasn't in the cards for me at this point to go that wide as well as tall. Maybe down the road :JEEPIN:
