So what did you do with your truck today?

[Jesus Freak]

Oh those Turf Busters have rubber that gets hard when they get older and don't get very much traction. I also see a Suzuki MX bike in the background! If I had to guess, it's a two stroke and a smaller one. Maybe in the 85cc range?

The turf busters are super hard and dry rotted, there is a fresh china knobby on the front though.The turf busters have tubes to hold me over until spring when I get a set of real deal Serwas. The dirt bike is my boys Suzuki DRZ125L, it's nothing classic or interesting, but it is excellent to teach the kids how to ride on.

This is how I tumbled screws in the tank to break up the rust.

I've seen that done before.

Oh so it's not even a mini MX bike. Oh well. I've been wrong before and I'm sure that it will happen again.

[Kdo58]

filled some holes and installed these Amazon mirrors, I cant get them parallel to the truck.

Towed home a '94 IDI-T that hasn't run and has been sitting in a field for 2.5 years. Starter was cooked, replaced that. 8 New glow plugs, and she immediately came to life. Now that I know she's got life in her and is worth keeping, a full truck teardown and restore is inbound.

Yall might like this, wanted to move the driver battery for an intake spot
So I made this tray and a nice spot for all the relays turned out better than I ever would’ve expected

 

[IDIBOBS]

That’s pretty nice. And Cudos for the f6 fiber loom, heat shrink and relocated glow plug controller.

 

[Rdnck84_03]

That turned out really nice. I like that it gets rid of the crossover positive cable also.

That's great! If I was gonna point out any area of concern, though it's not necessarily a terrible thing, but you're going to need to put on 35-40lbs to balance the weight of the truck back out. I recommend little Debbie snacks, they can really help you stack it on quick. Especially if you eat them before bedtime, nothing adds bulk like eating before bed!

I brought home more 3 wheelers!!! Woohoo!!!! Rusty junk!!!! It's what you WANT!!!!

and a couple of old 4 wheelers too.

Boy those driving lights sure were a 90's thing. I had a similar, modern idea for mine though. The upper two cube lights are spot lights for the high beams and the lower, small light bar is a flood light for low beam. The factory headlight still works and the LEDs are wired into the factory headlight wires.

I'll probably never ride at night, but just a head light will be handy.

I currently have more 3 wheelers than I can shake a stick at, and I'm a pretty mean stick shaker.

What's cool (and it's just another facet of how awesome THIS forum is as compared to others) I have the 2 Moto4s sold to a guy who used to be on here named @Rsquared. He sold his diesel, but still drives 80s Ferds as his dailys. I hit him up and he said he'd take em just to mess with them. So, it's kinda like they're staying in the family.....awwwee...

Unless you were meet some of the guys I know. Then you'll change your tune. The guy I'm buying the Tecate from, alone, has a mind blowing collection.

I don't very often but when I do...
