    There was not a whole lot of response on the originally planned meet-mod, so I am guessing we will have to reschedule so that more can attend, and hopefully Brian can be there. Haven't seen you in a while bud! I would be up for something this weekend IF I can get my bumper and winch finished up. I have almost every weld done, so now I will be working on grinding it smooth and prepping it for painting. I am going to primer the whole thing, then use just a basic flat black on the inside, and a spray bedliner for the outside.

    Yeah, yeah.... Quality takes time. I haven't welded in close to 10 years, and then it was sheetmetal work, or stick welding. 3/16" plate steel is another story for sure! But it is welded up! Now I will be grinding the welds smooth for a flush and smooth finish. After that the winch and bumper will be installed, and I will get the Anderson Jump-off connection put in.

    Mine is stock too minutes a leveling kit with street tires and didn't get stuck the first time I took it. You will be fine IMO. If you get stuck, Alex has a winch and I have a chain.

    It's a place that we go trail riding. There is a concrete slab that goes across the Coosa river that we cross sometimes, depending on water conditions. Youtube the slab and TACOMAWORLD at the same time and you'll see davetopgun's videos there.

    Alex, you have all the time to sleep when your older! :D

    I'll have to grease up my hubs and see if they will work. I'd hate to miss a meet right down the street from me.
