    Let the gf help relocate the license plate today after running into some carnage rock crawling a few weeks ago. Just need to figure out what light to put up there and then run wires.

    Whoever said LT can't tow 8k lbs+ never talked to me. When the tow rig is broken and the trailer is in your way, you're gonna find a way to move it.

    Rear add a leaf is in and gave me back about 1.5" of ride height so I am happy.

    Sitting on the bench:
    Coil bucket gussets
    New power steering pump

    Showing up today:
    Solid motor mounts

    Shipping next week:
    New power steering rack

    To do:
    Install the above and get an alignment
    Finish the gf's light bar install
    Build the gf's sliders


    Heading to Sand Hollow in a few weeks and Moab in march, so I should have some good pics from those trips soon.

    Not sure where I saw that it should take 3hrs to do solid motor mounts, but damn drivers side took that long.

    But 2 motor mounts and coil bucket gussets done and that was too much work for being sick. Just got the transmission mount to do tomorrow.

    Mod day for the 4Runner. Light bar installed and plasti dipped all the emblems.

    Also replaced the power steering pump and rack yesterday so the truck steers nice and smooth again. Pain in the ass to get the rack out with my front skid mounts welded to the frame

    Ran Maze in sand hollow UT today and holy hell that was fun and challenging. It fully meets its 8/10 rating with some of the optional and buggy lines definitely earning the 10/10 difficulty. Trail damage was just a scuff on passenger rear door and needing a few changes of underwear after almost tipping twice. Planning on heading back out tomorrow to run Double Sammy and I will hopefully get pics/ video sorted out sometime next week

    Today's story

    About 25 feet into the trail Double Sammy chose a winch pull to get out of this without furthering my chances of tipping over or more body damage. Felt like the rock was holding me up from tipping over. I'm just glad it didn't hit my door.

    After this setting the mood for the day we bailed out and turned around after only about 1/3 of the trail due to time of day and still needing to drive back to AZ

    Thanks but I tried and it didn't. Made an insurance claim and cashed out. Gonna use it to buy some vinyl to wrap the truck and the rest to pay off some debt. I'll pop the dents out as best I can and then the wrap should hide/ cover up this and all the other little scratches all over the truck.

    Just need to decide what color to go with?
