Alabama thread!

So you have to use the Toyota gasket?

 

I don't recall that. @JBTacoma will remember better than me from when we did mine...I have a terrible memory.

 

Glad you got out man! I hate those situations! Ive gotten stuck out there before and had to wait a while for one of my buddies.

 

sounds like how I made it through that crap in Kentucky, just turning the wheels back and forth inching forward ever so slowly.

 

man my truck was just a wittle baby 4 years ago.

 

And now its grown in to a monstrosity the previous owner would never have fathomed. Lol.

 

haha the guy still asks my dad every time he sees him "what's changed on the truck now?" and dad always texts me for photos. the guy loves it.

 

Nice. Least he doesn't think you've ruined it. Haha. If anything, we did yesterday when we chopped your shock mounts off

 

haha nah he likes seeing the stuff done and the trips we go on, dad asks me for pics all the time.

I've done everything in my power to ruin this truck lol, but it's still goin'

 

Same with mine. I've put Chevy parts on it. Yuck.

 

and a pawpaw camper shell

 

Least I don't need a bed rack to assist in getting in the bed of my truck like you. Reminds me of the handicap accessible showers with all the handles.

 

sometimes i think it would be nice to go back to stock, without going back to stock. Just the wheels I got with some A/T, but now I'm too far in the truck to go back and we will be onto the next money spent on it.

 

never said I need it, but it's a purpose it serves lol

 

haha yep. sometimes I think to myself "you could have a lot of other things if you just left this truck alone"

 

Still makes you sound old. You're practically 80.

 

if you could would you put a GM v8 in it?

 

Not this truck, I've got in the sweet spot of where I want it. I'm not opposed to using a GM v8 for a future build though considering the plethora of performance parts and support there are for them.

 

exactly, I love the truck, but this would be a lot better if I was retired.

I get some people just want to off road as their only hobby, but I would much rather go to a track and ride dirt bikes or even go to a park and ride bicycles. I try to make all offroading events I can, but I prefer the more active stuff.

 

I just wanna do it all lol. Not enough time in the days though....or ability for me to stay awake past 9pm haha!
