Stupid hurts.'s 5-Lugger Build

Yeah you too! I'm planning on coming down again next year, so hopefully I'll be at some meets and hang out with you guys again

 

Haha, thanks man!

Sweet, let us know when and maybe we can all set something up to hit the desert together.

 

Still have the Tacoma, Samurai, Civic, and now my WRX.

 

Holy crap, so many toys! Hahaha, that's awesome.

 

sweeeeeet baaaaabbbyyy JESUS!!!

 

how does your rear end ride with the dual shocks and the engage kit?

 

I just got a look at your license plate... Sweet.

 

AWESOME truck man, clean as shit.

 

Haha, thanks!

It's a bit stiff. I plan on taking some of the leafs out of the pack in the near future.

Thanks! A lot of people have a hard time believing it's a 4 banger, haha.

Thanks!

 

We should link this thread to the guy in the Carolina's that is fabing stock UCA's and LCA's for long travel...maybe he can get some ideas, LOL....


Sweet looking ride...

 

hey man how much lift do you have?

 

Hahaha, glad you enjoy your FSU chairs! I was almost worried you didn't receive them.

Haha, thanks. I've actually seen his thread.

I really have no clue. Maybe roughly 4"-5"....?

 

Yeah, just got them today. Thanks I like them a lot.

 

You're very welcome. Glad you like them!

Might as well throw an update in here. My truck has been on the backburner partly because of my busy work schedule, but mostly because I've been piecing and putting back my other love back together, my '05 Triumph Thruxton...

​

Picked up a few goodies along the way. Ditched my Hella 500s that I had behind the grill and installed and wired up my amber tinted Blitzpro 15s light bar with my BAMF behind the grill light bar. I also won a gift certificate from OKLEDLIGHTBAR and used it to purchase a 50" double-row CREE LED bar that will sit on the roof with some brackets made by a local TW member on here. Purchased and installed some new King tender springs on my coilovers after tinkering with different spring rates and I also have some Nitro 4:88 gears that have yet to be installed. The gears will be installed by the guys at Yotamasters sometime in the new year. Pretty excited for the new gears as they will help lugging around those 33s with my 4 cylinder motor.

​

I really want to go test this truck out especially after getting the gears installed so I hope to actually drive this thing on dirt A LOT more than I have been in the new year, haha.

 

Went to Barstow on the weekend before the M.O.R.E. race as well as the weekend of the race and had a blast. It was fun hanging out and pitting for Sick Nick's Fab Racing 1410 and 1491. I really got to test out the truck those two weekends. I also got a lot of footage from my GoPro with the roll bar mount so I'll make and edit a short video once I find more time.

Only a part of the camp from the weekend of shock tuning. Shout out to Anthony AKA Anthony250 for helping me out with all of my shock needs!



Me, Hiat AKA Hiat1991, and Ray AKA RAD taking a break for a quick photo-op.



Me and Hiatt atop a hill overlooking Bartsow.



Some candids while I was tinkering with the GoPro roll bar mount.





Some carnage from the race. Glad Bryan AKA desert guy and his co-driver in the 1491 came out just fine after the wreck. They were doing really well and even came out in 3rd despite the wreck! Also, shout out to Nick of Sick Nick's Fab and his co-driver, Anthony AKA acordova1050, on a job well done at the M.O.R.E race!





Lastly, a short Instagram video clip taken from my iPhone.
