    Hi All,
    I've been lurking here for the last week or so and decided to join up and introduce myself. I'm in E. Mesa (Warner & Signal Butte) and have been in AZ for about a year but other stuff has been taking up my time until recently. Grew up in Needles, CA and went to college here before moving to Northern CA for 11 years. Good to be back in the desert!

    I've only hit a few trails (Sedona/Cinder Hills/Telegraph & Box Canyons) since I've been in state and hope to change that in the coming months.

    Current:
    07 Silver DCSB 4x4
    OME 886 & Wheeler AAL + Firestone airbags for towing a 19' TT
    33" MTR's on Wheeler 16's
    ARB bumper
    Custom sliders fabbed by a friend
    Other bits and pieces in & out

    Soon:
    4.56's in transit from ECGS
    Locker anytime mod
    Onboard air w/ airtank

    Eventually:
    Armor
    Rear HC bumper w/ tire carrier
    Whatever else I convince myself I need after spending any amount of time on this forum.

    Have done all the work to the truck myself and am happy to lend a hand if anyone needs it.

    Brian
