    4 run, 2 don't
    He knows I'm joking :rofl: (none of it's true, just the moving part!)

    But hey @roguegs we were talking about wheeling sometime in June. We can move this over to the other thread?

    I want to do a shakedown run, and I'm sure others want to get out as well.

    Went from 3rd Gen Taco to 3GT4R to 2nd Gen Taco and finally a V8 4GT4R.
    LOL trust me…I thought I was banned from the 209 meetups ever since I sold my turd gen and disappeared. I only moved back up in September because my work said we’d come back to the office. I guess my buddies “delta” and “omicron” cancelled those plans.

    isn’t June a Slick Rock run @El Taco Diablo? I know for sure I need to get camping sessions in this season.

    I will say one thing; if you had to resort to hanging out with 559Yota members, I'm sorry :rofl:

    There's a handful of cool people, but many are just........off, for a lack of better term.

    Easier than I expected, but it's tight. Having a friend assist really helps.

    Since I didn't want to deal with dropping the IFS skid, I hit the fan bolts (tip: use a magnet so you don't risk dropping them) and then removed the old belt from the top. Had to come in from the top and wheel wells to get the new belt and the fan screws back on. Matt handled the tensioner through the driver-side wheel well.

    I'd say it took 30 minutes, probably half of which was just figuring out how to do it.

    You're not banned bro.

    You're an official member of the cool kids club... ok... maybe honorary member. But, you're super close to being official :thumbsup:

    Anyone down to do a trail clearing / trail opening at Niagara Rim Trail on Friday?

    Just seeing if anyone is interested. 4x4 In Motion is working with Stanislaus Nat Forest, trying to set it up. This will be trail blazing (first ones through in 2022). But work gloves will be needed. (and bow saws, and chainsaws, if you have them, and are interested).

    I know it's no notice, and it's a workday for most. But that's they way Stanislaus National Forest Service works unfortunately.
