    A bunch of small changes lately. Got my HIDs mounted back up on the front bumper. So nice to have good light again. Between the LED headlights and the 3x HIDs on the bumper it's working really well for nighttime stuff. But I'm also looking at adding a 40" LED lightbar to the roofrack soon.

    Other changes are some new internal flashlight mounts and a new cargo drawer setup. In other news, I'm making a change with the wheels. Just waiting for the new ones to show up this week.

    Couple more trips on the calendar over the next couple weeks too. Headed out to finish up the route from our UCE3 trip from a couple years ago that was cut short because of delays due to flooding. Gonna be fun. Also headed to CruiserFest over the weekend of Sept11-12. That should be a good time too.

    Thanks but I'll stick with the Toyota motor. ;) It may be slow but it's a workhorse and I don't need it to go fast.

    Speaking of not going fast...I ordered the Marlin Crawler low range gearset...ever done one? Looking for tips and tricks before I start.

    I've only done the crawler gears in my '93 pickup. I don't have any firsthand experience with the MC Cruiser gearset. Should be a great addition to your cruiser though.

    Alright, I got some better photos of the SCS SR8s. I really like how these turned out on the Cruiser. Perfect amount of backspacing IMO to push the tires out flush with the flares but not too far.
