    The cruiser needed some TLC, I have been driving it almost every day for the past 3 months so I started to notice all the little things with it that bug me. (There is some new goods coming for the Tacoma as well.)

    I'm planning to do a Boulder City run on Sept. 30 with the Tacoma if anyone is interested should be several Tacomas, FJ 40's and a few Jeeps and anyone else that wants to show up. The plan will be to meet up in Hailey around 9:30-10:00 and head up to Ketchum.

    We got a Traxxas slash for my girlfriends son for his birthday after driving the slash, I figured that I needed one too so I picked up a used Axial trail honcho on ebay.

    I'm pretty stoked, the RC car is alot of fun it crawls and chases the dog.

    Nice, out with the Icons and in with OME I like it so you'll be making the Boulder City run? You should probably bring your AX10 with you so I can check it out.

    I said I still had plans for the Taco....

    Information seems to be pretty limited on 2.7 S/C but the little bit that is out there is very promising. Anyways it was time to change my spark plugs so I just got the set that came with a S/C.....man those were some expensive spark plugs.

    Have a seat, actually shouldn't you be working on your truck...Gadget said it should ship on Tuesday.


    There are a few 2nd gen 4bangers with a S/C but they seem to be pretty limited on info either that or I just don't know how to interwebs search...

    Some pics from this afternoon getting the truck ready to wheel Boulder. I'll get some wheeling pics up after the trip so Brant can see what he missed.

    A set of FJ wheels I traded for the rim stiffeners showed up today, plan to work on these later.

    A 285/75r17 Toyo's that I found in the paper and scored really cheap to wrap the FJ wheels.
