    Y'all missed out on a good mod day at Anna's yesterday! All the Tacomas there had stuff done to them :) I fixed that stupid temp/compass and made the Satoshi style grill plus put in the behind the grill lights/lightbar (thanks Ben), Anna got her shocks on the rear and put in her light bar, and Russ added a leaf. It was beautiful weather for it, pretty sure we all worked on our farmer's tans

    bilstine 5100 shocks in front, bilstine 5150s in rear, ome 3inch lift springs in rear, ome 2.5inch lift springs in front. 265/75/16 snow tires till my 285/75/16s get in. 2 ten inch custom subs in my custom box, ran by a hifonics 2400d amp. breather tubes to front and rear diff to keep from sucking in water. building a tube bumper with my brother right now to hold a warn vr8000 winch.
    Sorry I haven't been on, I have a few pics and videos, I got the runner going onto the log aswell. I uploaded the good photos to my photo vault on here, but can't copy and past them with my phone. And I'm going to be uploading the videos to YouTube as soon as I remember my password. Also I just went out to buffalo mine the other night after it rained, and by golly the mud got alot worse! Y'all remember the hole I broke my cv in? Well that was impassable last weekend, me and my brother in his land cruiser on 35s couldn't get past there, I almost rolled, and the mud was almost hip deep, so lucky his cruiser is 6k lbs and had 35s or my truck would have been there for a few days till it dried up.

    Also I just ordered two 8inch led light bars, any ideas on how or where I should mount them? Also a new set of plates for me and my brother, "rcvry1" for my brother and "rcvry2" for my runner. Got winches on the way for his cruiser and a winch in the near future for me. So if anyone needs a pull some time give us a call :D

    Anybody have much experience using Herculiner? I'm thinking of doing that to my fenders and the lower parts of the door panels... maybe the bumpers too at the next mod day which is?.... Anna? :)

    [​IMG] not but a mile up the trail. same place I got stuck last weekend, the mud has gotten a lot more soupy and is a lot deeper now, the big tree off to the left that had fallen over ended up getting me stuck, and almost flipping me, so my brother in his heavy ass land cruiser ended up snapping it in half and dragging it 30 yards through the mud so we could roll it off the trail.
    [​IMG]
    20 point turn for the tacomas going around these trees and down the hill, us runners made it no problem ;)
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG] nice rock to take some pics, beautiful day!
    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]
