    No problem, yeah just let me know whenever if you still need it.

    Surgery was minor. Had a bump behind my knee, figured I should get it checked out in case it was cancerous or something. Turned out it was nothing but they said it wouldn't be a simple procedure & that i would have to be put to sleep. I thought nothing of it but I woke up with 10 staples on the backside of my knee! I almost fainted when i saw them. Lol. I recovered fine, just took a while. Thanks.

    Yup I love Ti 6Al4V. I've got a tool box full of it. Shit is so expensive.

    Yep, this thing is going to remain in the family. No plans to ever sell. Totally cool with it being 2WD - son is a year or 2 away from outdoor adventures, overnight fishing, etc. It'll take me where I want to go... FOR NOW.

    Nice, I hear it's not easy to weld compared to other metals. And forging it is even harder. I will never know though.

    who better to do the swap than you... seriously. I'm curious, just how difficult would it be to actually do the complete ADD/vacuum lines, blah blah blah conversion? I have read very little on the subject to date. Just some quick review of a few threads. I so should've bought 4WD.

    All these awesome trip reports some of these guys churn out - :drool:

    manual hubs is way easier. but ADD shouldnt be too hard.. from my understanding the prerunners have the 4WD computers in them

    no kidding... I thought the ECU would have to be swapped out for sure. cool - good to know. Manual would be a lot easier of course but that little pushbutton :thumbsup:

    I wish I had a shop, sometimes. This is all in 2/3 of a 2 car garage with no room to spare. If I did have more room I'd buy a surface grinder, I want one so bad. But I don't have to pay overhead for a shop (machining is just a hobby) & I like being able to just walk into the garage & work on something. :)
