    I can confirm, they are very much under water. All those that I know about anyways.

    @tex, thanks for the recommendation of @achirdo, got a PM into him now.

    Just look at the build thread
    If you're paying I will! Otherwise it will probably be a D44. Possibly a D60/14B setup if I can get my hands on one for a decent price. I really don't want tons though.

    It's kind of going on behind the scenes. Just doing a lot of research and figuring out exactly what parts I need and which ones I already have in the shop. Should have an axle in the next couple of months. My dad's pushing me to do it this winter. But I don't think I'll be quite ready yet.

    4Runner has factory solid axle.

    I also have to get the 4Runner sold and out of the shop. Which means actually working on the thing to get it ready to sell. And that doesn't sound fun.

    I'm going stir crazy with all this damned rain. Got impatient and slapped some JBWeld on the gap to seal it and laid down the primer on the sliders in the garage. I'm going to have to put down more plastic before I start spraying that bedliner stuff.

    I think next week the rain lets up and then the heat will roll in. I've enjoyed the cooler weather, but my stone patio is a greenish black color now.

    Hit a traffic cone...

    And you don't want to see the fender on the other side. Had a little run in with a pole when a haji ran me off the road.

    Laid down the bedliner on the sliders this morning, going to put on the top coat of satin black tomorrow evening. Aiming for a Saturday or Sunday install depending on what the weather looks like. I can pull the truck into the middle of the garage so we should have enough room to work under cover if it does decide to rain... which it's likely to if recent history is anything to go by.
