    I've lost track
    :D Big things happening in the weeks to come. As soon as I get back from Arizona my truck is getting a major overhaul...about damn time Im stoked!!

    Long travel rear first...starting with kings, a bed cage, and the Allpro 3" pack with shackles, may go to the SUA Baja pack depending on a couple things.

    And then gonna work on the front.

    Hahahaha! After being in front of a screen all day, it's hard to do the same once at home, but I still log on :)

    The UCAs? Man, I'm loving those little bastards- Don't know if it's all in the head or not, but things just feels smoother while driving. I'm ready to take them onto some dirt! I get two more days off after today's day of work! Hurray!


    WE worked hard on those fuckers. I got a stiff muscle between my spine and my shoulder blade- aching like a biotch- Must be from breaking that spindle and arm loose- those things are no joke (probably the hardest part of the whole process aside from F-ing with the long bolt.) Thanks again, Matt! I appreciate it so much!

    Well, since you guys are so sore, maybe you can give each other a rub down or something, or I dunno, maybe brush each others hair & talk about boys , throw a pillow fight into the mix & you'll have a real party !!!!

    Damn, dude... That's a pretty homo party... I was thinking of having our girls give us rub downs and lap-dances while we drink and enjoy them... Is there something you're not telling us, Doug :confused::confused:

    Anybody need/want 2nd gen TRD Off-Road wheels? I've got 4 sitting in my yard. They're still wrapped in some bald Rugged Trails. :p



    $125 for all 4... :cool:


    I suppose I'll get pictures tomorrow, if nobody here in SD wants them I'll put them in the buy/sell/trade section.

    thanks greg! And me either. It seems like I'm just throwing money at an idea right now. But getting the shocks makes it set in. I'm so stoked! If you need any help with your truck let me know

    I put them on. The ride is soooo much better. The investment was totally worth it. I dont care if the shocks and resi dont show, i didnt want to ride around with a broken shock anymore while the fj shocks got revalved.

    Well wanted to drop in a say laters to all the SD folks...we are leaving tomorrow to move up north. Enjoyed all the desert and Corral Canyon runs. The wife's mom lives here and a lot of our friends as well, so we will be heading down for the holidays/surf for sure.

    Big thanks to Doug for lending a hand with the truck when I was out of commission with the shoulder and the late night rescue op. Oh yeah, and thanks to Greg for all the laughs out in Ocotillo Wells on that one trip...good times.

    I had to have mine re-valved the FJ specs made it ride really stiff. Think the valving I got is just a bit slower on rebound then yours. Just be cognizant of that line going to the resi on the bottom, that's the reason I went with the FJ one. Doubt you'll ever have a problem with it though.

    Too bad we didn't get to wheel too much, man. Sure it woulda been a good time. I'm happy I was able to commit to good memories. Make sure you let us know when you're coming back down, man, so we can all get a run in while you're here. Best of luck to you and your family up there, Fin. We'll miss ya.
