New England Mod & Meetup Thread

Thank you

 

ya but it needs some things, rack, sliders, winch, RTT, and some under guard. Which will mean new suspension. But the lunar rock is cool, very hard to describe the color, which depending on the light seems to be a little different.

 

I’m hoping that it will look good dusty as well, guess I’ll have to see how it looks best.

 

Start saving and gathering.....then make a trip down to my house and we can have one hell of a install day getting everything done.

 

I look forward to it!!
Been saving for a few years. I’m ready to order sliders soon, not exactly sure what I should get, but have been eyeing these. https://www.4xinnovations.com/2010--2022-4Runner-Bolt-On-Rock-Slider_p_157.html




I got the Sherpa full roof rack on order now, need that on before the end of June. Then the sliders will help with accessing the roof. The rest of the big items I’ll probably wait for the bigger sales. Bumper/winch, suspension, RTT.

 

I have the diy weld ons from them on mine, super beefy and worth every penny for the price

 

The Luna rock color remindes me of a glow in the dark super ball….I don’t mean that in a bad way…I kind of like it!

 

@crashngiggles , @Brownmatthall , thoughts on anything else to get done? Maybe some trailer work Jared? Or tank skid video.
Just don't think the bumper will take to long

 

Well....lets not get too far ahead of ourselves....best laid plans and all....a 5 minute project is just one broken bolt away from a 17 hour nightmare lol. Tank skid video.....that would be perfect. The aspect if the trailer most certainly.....at least to help me move it. Eammon is coming down as well to pick up his snorkel so we can keep ourselves bust with a lot of things.

 

@BadDNA , get your stripes on yet?

 

Not yet, weather's still pretty shitty up here and I haven't washed the truck yet. I have a week I took off next month to get a whole list of projects whittled down, that may be one I do then. I have plans to be in Uxbridge early that afternoon, so unfortunately I'm not going to be sticking around too long, or I'd get it all washed on the way down and we could have some 'arts & crafts' time putting big stickers on my truck.

 

For what it's worth, I'm located in northern/central Vermont (Rt2 between Montpelier and Saint Johnsbury) and I am willing to host some mod days up this way for northern folks. I do have a garage (no heat though) that can fit (with just enough room to maneuver around) a DCLB. I tend to fill my weekends pretty quickly though, so if there's interest it may take some work to find a good weekend.

 

Just subbing because, in the event I start doing mods, I will need a place to do so, as I live in a condo. I do all the work on my motorcycle myself, at a friends house who has a 4 car ( 9 bike) garage. I dont plan on doing anything crazy for a few years to it, but, hey. I like turning wrenches, even though most of the time I have no clue what I am doing

 

Come on out on Saturday and hang out sir

 

This is something I am going to have to swing by the girlfriend. I work most weekends, have this one off. I am not entirely sure she wants to spend the day watching me curse at inanimate objects and throwing things. She gets that enough when I work on the bike lol. But, I will swing it by her!

 

I was TRYING to get in touch w/ JBA, to order some UCAs... haven't heard back...which may be just as well, as I'm probably gonna be working straight through....

Bring your wives or girlfriends or whatever you consider your better half is... LOL....

 

On Saturday, at 9am, @Brownmatthall , @AllTacosFloat , and myself are installing his bumper and gas tank skid in my driveway in Wilbraham. You are more than welcome to stop by before hand. I am not quite sure I will be able to go out to Brew Practitioners afterwards but if you wanted to come by to see what happens at "Casa del 'Crash'" you can make it an all tacos TW day if you like.....
oh, and @BadDNA will be coming down and joining us for a couple of minutes or so to pick up his snorkel from me....
