    Oh I know what my truck needs. Crawler would be gravy for me. Also, I don’t mean to talk down on my gear setup. It’s definitely one of the best things I’ve done. Its just tricky in the super technical stuff with a manual, even being over geared.

    My point was the if he’s picking gears for his non-DD, manual, 4cyl trail rig...

    Then anything other than being over geared is a waste of time and money.

    Quoted for truth, of course. I'd overgear AND still DD the crap out of it. Cause I'm stupid. And I like Single cabs. :D:cool:

    Your excitement, excites me even further. :fistbump::headbang:
    I have wanted to say "I've got a wee bone to pick with AOP" because of last years "parked at camp all weekend" topic, but I have avoided saying such things because AOP could very easily instead pick my bones. Kind of that, be careful what you ask for thing I think.

    My plan is...to hopefully find me 2/3 other trucks that wanna go hit easy/medium stuff and we can go mess around for a bit. Then I would like to try George Winter. I've watched so many youtube videos of it, I think I can do it, if it's dry. That left turn on GWT will either get me, or the Single cab might shine through, idk.

    I would totally wear it. Just so folks would be like "WTF does the back of his shirt mean". Then they ask. And I would reply, "The Floperator". Which would lead to more "WTF" looks.

    Says 'RRG 2018' on the front. He was a one-man shitshow/co-pilot. I watched in awe of his ability to down Red Bull's, high ABV IPAs, and not even take a nap!

    ...and that was before he fell into the creek.

    While I am sure it was fun, it wasn't quite the true trip that LBL 2018/March was, lol. I still have some. I am bringing them again.

    That trail is probably leaning driver 20° or more and he actually slipped on the muck or rocks. For someone without sliders, would've been ill-advised to follow the truck in front of you.

    I noticed this a couple weeks back.





    So I ordered this Upper Ball Joint Boot, "That does not fit my 2007 Tacoma", so says Amazon. :rolleyes:. I think it will. :cool:





    I should do the smart thing and like, replace my clutch before I drive 500 miles/8 hours and my clutch/throwout bearing goes :boom:. I'll also take the :crapstorm:, but I think I'm just going to get "HD" clutch kit off Rock Auto. AMS Automotive Performance Plus Kit. It won't break my bank and is an upgrade. https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=7284876&cc=1434688&jsn=__GIP__1__
