Endeavored H3 Build

[Gpcalero]

Need to trim the forward skid plate and make a trans skid plate. Other than that this whole saga is over, time to enjoy. Last photo is final ride height after it settled on the test drive.

Rubicon 24’ here we come.

Getting an alignment this morning. Was told I was within rancho specs for an alignment, not bad for a tape measure and an analog degree gauge.

Getting both sides squared up now and a light shakedown run up in flagstaff this weekend. Next up is skid plates and pulling the rear end apart to replace some locker pins. Which takes care of all the big bits

Shakedown run on Friday, went up to flagstaff to camp for a night. Monsoon downpoured right before I turned off to get to the campsite.

There was an older guy in a 2wd tundra trying to pull a trailer through a clay mud pit (don’t know it’s soft until you’re in it). Able to pull him out and back his trailer out onto the road.

Truck drove great, need a larger transmission cooler. But other than that it’s rubicon ready.

Crunch time.

Fabricated a skid plate for the transmission pan. Rebuilt the rear locker, and installing a new wiring system.

Checked for any binding or anything tight. No issues presented so it’s ready to go to the rubicon this weekend.

Late in posting this, figured id pop it and share some photos from the Rubicon back in August 24'

En route to tahoe, found a friend. Hugo's BBq and Mexican Food, had an excellent breakfast burrito. This 06' has been in a climate controlled garage since 05' and had 20k miles on it.

Installed the Gobi in a parking lot in tahoe

Found a wild squeaky h3

Camping in at loon before meeting with the rest
