    Quick questions...

    When should I get my alignment done?
    1. Now
    2. After I get tires in a month or two because not only will i be getting bigger tires but I may have to raise or lower the lift

    I'd go with after unless you plan on doing it after you raise/lower lift with new tires.

    Well I took my Taco to URE this weekend after a big redo in the past year, and super happy with how it did. With this said, Now with my truck starting to be the way I want it, and its almost time to be able to start family camping/wheelin (the little one almost at a good age to start) I am contemplating selling my 81 (the Seagull) just not needed in my plans for family trips. So if know anyone looking for a built truck hit me up, it runs and is good as is, but like anything else custom always tweaking or something to do. It is street legal (just not that comfortable), titled. It has built front Yota axle, ARB's 5:29's diffs, 4:30's t case 92 rebuilt 22re with some simple mods, caged bed, and interior cage. alot of used parts i've aquired from other trucks. It will not be cheap thou still not sure what ill want, but will be over 6 for sure

    Took the jeep and the family on a drive up hurricane creek last weekend! Great trail but some folks have been back there tearing things up pretty bad.

    Also, found a hard top for a steal so picked it up too in prep for the winter.

    Hey guys, I'm at Camp Lejeune and I'm wondering where the best place to get some work done (specifically an OME lift) in the area. I know the Jacksonville area does not have a very trustworthy reputation. Just wanted to see if you guys had any advice you could share.
