The bumper is now black, as is the bed bob area..


Did the corner blinker mod shortly after this picture..

I ended up with skid row skids.






did the clutch back in december, thank you Marlin crawler for the clutch and Tony for the helping hand




Quick disco mudflaps





Got some 5.29's, Now running lockrights front and rear..





And I wheeled AZrocks, Camped havasu, and wheeled Aftershock at The Hammers all for spring break






Aftershock Video

I dont have any pictures of me on Aftershock, but there are some pictures of my friends here

More AzRocks pics and videos here

My junk is close to being an IFS DD Raisin. I have body damage on all but one body panel (the front drivers fender, I don't count the hood or roof). Not proud of it, just saying.

I'm sure I'm going 35's next. I'll have a 1" BL and plenty of cutting to do to fit those.. Crawl box will most likely be before the 35's, and eventually I'm sure I'll end up cutting the IFS off...

That is all

So I've got a few little projects to post..

The rear diff breather..



I installed a "yellow box" speedo calibrator (works like a charm)


I JUST got done installing some scion TC seats. Soo much nicer on the lower back and they even sit a tad higher. Awesome for a short fellow like myself.



And I've got a rear bumper in progress. Nothing special, just the usual.


And some cool rig shots





Watch out for da rocks !










Sorry 56K users

I had finished installing the seats like 2 hours before I posted that.

I had to cut the mounting feet off of my Tacoma seats (making the taco seats useless) and do the same for the scion seats while making sure I didn't mess up the rails. Then welded them up and done!

I'll send you some info on the bob later. I'm posting this on the iPhone

I know its destined to happen.. and I'm not going to fight it..

I just started researching SAS stuff.. reading stuff on pirate... adding up numbers..

I'll be aiming for something like this..
Not sure what axle I want to use (either an fj80 axle or a Waggy44)
37's.. Minus the huge front bumper
Axle pushed forward a couple inches.. leafs not links..

It won't be a DD after that. I'm looking into getting a motorcycle at the moment..




Think I'm going to just start buying parts every pay check..
I have not reached the limits of my IFS. But I'm pretty sure there will come a day. And I want to be ready for it
