    Are you talking about the Mod Town one?


    Wheeling by yourself sucks... specially in the snow.

    That the only one for skids I've seen. I was wondering if they made 1st Gen stuff and just didn't have it on their site. Doesn't matter anyway for me. Gotta save money for other truck goods.

    We just had a big BBQ meet and greet up here in Massachusetts.

    I brought my Whiteline LCA bushings, steering rack bushings, and CV reboot kit and we got all of those bastards in.

    Took us about 8 hours in the driveway, I was so toast. Gonna set up an appointment to to mount and balance my KM2's and get an alignment.

    I'm looking forward to hearing all the new squeaks and pops that my truck will make now :thumbsup:

    My other car is a BRZ, and the seats are just amazing. They're cloth but the bolsters are really supportive and they fit around me like a glove, and keep my in place while driving like a douche. I assume that most of the decent racing seats are like that as well.

    Out in NNJ with a couple jeeps and of course my 4x4 doesn't work right when I hit the trail. The light doesn't come on but I'm not hearing any weird noises or anything. I went through the first part of the trail a bit too quickly but not enough to blow anything up. The shifter is mechanical though isn't it? So it should shift into 4x4 even if the light doesn't come on? Or is it an actuator? Kinda embarrassing one of the first problems I've ever had on the trail is among a bunch of jeeptards lol

    Your actuator on the passenger side of the diff likely isn't working. Your tcase engages manually though. Check for continuity between pin 2 and 6 (if I remember right).

    Hmm maybe, I figured that was mostly the car/suspension making the bumps feel that way.
    Glad to see I'm not the only one with a BRZ/Tacoma combo. It seems like there's a lot of Tacoma guys with Mustangs as their second...

    Did Rimrocker trail this weekend. 160 miles of dirt getting from Montrose to Moab. Unbelievably gorgeous.

    He said he's got a j shift and not push button, is that still the add actuator?

    I think it is, but as a J-shift guy who should know this for sure, I'll wait for someone smarter to chime in.

    Pics aren't that great. It was too damn hot to linger for long taking pictures. It was so cool up there though. Never been in a spot like that before. DSC_0340.jpg DSC_0355.jpg

    What do you mean about checking for continuity. I should mention it's a j shift too. I honestly don't know much about this stuff lol
