LOS ANGELES OFF-ROAD COMMUNITY

This thread doesn’t apply to me anymore . But still with y’all in spirit

 

Where you is?

 

OC lmao

I was in So. Pasadena for about a year though

 

Dang vato. Well, holla if you ever roll through.

 

Yeah bro it’s been a minute. We need to get together. Maybe I’ll do a BBQ once the weather calms the F down. I’ll text ya

 

You’re still probably closer to the rest of the old crew than I am so that’s doable.

 

your in OC now?

 

What’s up Steve. Ya lmao! You and Char down for a BBQ?

 

Nice man! We are always down for a BBQ

 

Honestly I am not to sure yet of dates or specific trails. I haven't really seen the dirt to often and have become disconnected with wheeling unfortunately. I say that, after a week long wheeling trip I went on in MOAB UTAH in October last year.

Im sorry for your losses as well. Its be non stop loos in my family. Its really hard to deal with, especially when it happens back to back. Prayers to you and your family.

 

Making me jealous here. looks like you had a killer time. Snow should be insane up in big bear right now.

I am hoping to have my Lexus up and ready for anything in the next coming weeks. Kinda been spending way to much money lately on the Lexus to get it "worthy". Full Icon stage 7'ish kit with dual bypass shocks up front, rear bumper, new wheels, 35" tires sitting in the garage. and waiting for my ARB lockers and 4.88 gears

Also got the DRT fabrication Cab mount relocation. @ghostship how hard is this to install, I saw that you did one not too long ago.

 

SICK INVITE BREH!

 

Ill take them both off of your hands!

Beautiful cars, how long have you had them?

 

Im looking to move to Corona area within the year so I cant stay in this thread either, haha.

 

Our housing prices have really dropped lately with them still dropping. You'll probably make out well if you wait closer to the end of the year.

 

Thanks! I've had the 4Runner since June 2020, and the Tercel since August 2022. Love them both.

 

They’re not terrible: just a lot of cutting and grinding and welding. What makes them “hard” is working out of position the entire time (unless you’re using a lift) and knowing little things to make it go smoother like unbolting the radiator bushing so you can lift the cab higher out of the way while you work. I will say it’s definitely easier on a second gen as opposed to a third: the third gen mount is bigger so there’s more material to remove and there’s a main wiring harness that runs above the driver’s side mount on a third gen that forces you to cut and weld a lot slower to prevent damaging it. I can usually get them done in about 4-5 hours alone.

let me know if you need help with that.

 

I have unfortunately been waiting for about 2.5 years now, and i'm loosing my mind at my current location. I need to get a house soon, so idk how much longer I can wait, but I will try, haha.
