Alabama thread!

There is an internal shoulder that does prevent you from driving the seal in too far, but yes it is best to get it flush so that it sits at the proper location on the CV shaft. I prefer to keep the shield installed because it helps reduce the crap that can get caught up in the CV shaft and seal area and cut the seal.

 

well i will be going to cherry point north carolina!!! i got Harriers. not F-35 orders but luckily I was the only one who wanted the only Harrier order there, they will be replaced by F-35s so win win situation!

 

ordered the OME HD full lift kit! bumper had to be put on hold. i had to remember a wise man telling me if i get the bumper then the lift and UCAs should be first....so UCAs next paycheck!

 

Congrats! Cherry Point is an awesome base. You will enjoy 2nd MAW! Never been there, but I had a lot of fellow Marines who were stationed there. I spent my time in NC at Camp Lejeune. You and your wife will enjoy it there. Its kind of a small civilian town, but no joke, take the off-limits list seriously. They do NOT play around in NC with that. Tell your wife to even avoid those places. Not because they are dangerous really, but because if a vehicle with base stickers is seen there, it gets reported. Sure YOU were not in the car there, but you still will get called in. Don't want that.

And hey, the Atlantic Beach Boardwalk is just north of you. I think it is only like an hour drive. BEAUTIFUL place. We went there a few times.

 

okay off-limits are taken a lot more seriously there. and check out the boardwalk. sweet. i'm excited and can't wait but hopefully i can take my truck with me. i am gonna try and get stationed west coast after school in cherry point.

 

West coast is nice, but very expensive. Make sure you have a nice income before you do it. Take everything around here and double the price of it, and welcome to Cali.

 

I see you Brian.

 

ya idk if i'll be in cali bt maybe arizona. wont know till after my next school.


that is weird that you don't put in what form you see him in....something going on that is under the category don't ask, don't tell?

 

His name was in "Current active users viewing this thread". I saw him lurking...

 

That's all he does now, lurking that is!

 

well i think it's the age...SHHHHHHHHH. he can't hear certain volumes

 

Yes, I'm lurking. Even if I can't get to the computer, I'm checking on my cell or reading the subscription in my email. I didn't refresh the screen, so I didn't see your post until now thou.

 

Now I will say that when I was there, and they were hard core about the off-limits was in the 90s. Some things change, but I have heard that the current base commander , Colonel something-or-another, is fair, but firm. Old-Corps type.

A lot of schools will let you bring your POV, and a lot won't. With the way the Corps has changed over the years, it may be quite possible. If not you will still meet a lot of active duty Marines that will be more than happy to offer rides. When I was in NC I didn't have my POV, and I never had trouble going anywhere. could always get a ride.


Hey Jim.... I mean Justin.... Will you have those pieces of angle iron with you on Sunday? Also, how much do I owe you?

 

well praying i van have it up there! that would be SWEET!!! oh also I'M GONNA BE A DADDY!!!
CAN YOU TELL I'M EXCITED!! HAHA

 

Congrats man! There is no feeling more amazing than holding your child in your hands.

 

thanks! well i have a little while to i can do that but i can't wait.

 

Congrats!!!

 

congrats!!! like dave said, there is nothing like it in the entire world when you hold your child and get to watch them grow up. I know mine is only two but im already feeling like time is moving too fast.

I do not have them yet. there has been a bit of a stall on getting anything delivered. I do not want to have to pay the almost $75 shipping charge it costs to get stuff delivered and since this was a production month last month we didnt get any steel delivered. hopefully we will need an order put in soon for this month which is a down month for repairs.

 

THANKS!!!

THANKS!!!

well hopefully time wont fly by to fast. but i'll still be young so. haha. anyways i got 2 presents for graduating! i got the okay to buy my lift and then i'm finding out i am going to be a daddy. can't wait to do all the fishing and camping, will give me more reasons to go wheeling and camping but unfortunately we will have to get rid of her car which is a '12 altima coupe 2.5s with 24k miles maybe more, buuuuuut i got her on the right path to get a runner!!! haha, so hopefully when the time comes we can pick up a sweet deal on a '09-'12 runner.

 

This seemed to be the proper thread to post this in. Been a lurker/member for a good while now and just trying to get back in the forum swing again. Anyway I have been seeing a lot of tacomas in the Huntsville area lately from stock all the way to highly modified. Sorry, didn't read thru the 600+ pages to see who owned what. But I was just curious if there was any regular Huntsville meet and greet or just a few guys that met up for a beer and talk trucks.
