    On its own, I think The Hangover 2 was funny. The comedy was good, the jokes were not all quick and easy slap stick stuff, and the story line was decently twisted to keep you wondering but not so fucked up you got lost. The biggest challenge it had was that it couldn't of happened to me. The "that could of happened to me" factor was one of the things that made The Hangover so hilarious is that we all knew that it was remotely possible to happen to us.

    Overall I think it was funny enough that I'm glad I went to see it. That is pretty suprising since I usually only watch 3-4 movies a year in the theater.

    Well, was looking under the 4runner today after we hooked the rear window up, and the ubolt on the driver rear was missing it's nuts, and the passenger rear was loose. Could have been pretty bad.

    Bad idea. Cuz I'm sure you will never want to upgrade the rear suspension

    A small tack weld can easily be removed with a grinder. The cost of replacing the parts welded together is much much less than the cost of the rear axle leaving you on the trail.

    Probably no more than 4" so as to keep the center of gravity low. Right now I'm trying to decide how soon I want to do a SAS. I'm looking around and trying to find if there are any cheaper/easy ways to get an inch or two right now without a full blown lift install.

    That is the biggest thing I am looking at right now. How to lift for clearance but not kill my power.
