Good trip, not crowded out there and great weather. That is funny, alot of people did flake out that voted.
Hopefully Brad can get some of the pics that Juan took, he seemed to get alot of good ones. See you guys next time. |
looks like fun nice rig too
|
Marc, looks like you had fun, your 4Runner is looking good! lot's of flexing going on in the pictures.
ps I only flaked because I "had" to go to Las Vegas for SEMA |
Looks like fun guys. I really wish I could have made it out. Hopefully I can get my family healthy again and we can head out also.
Just to express how badly I wanted to be there I bought a Scorpion Rock crawler RC truck so I could at least play that way. LOL |
Looks like alot of fun was had. Glad to see your children getting into it as well.
|
The 2 girls had a blast together....My daughter really got into the wheeling/camping thing on this trip. Hopefully next time she will be excited to go.
It was really fun to take my truck on familiar trails with the SAS and new tires...it didnt skip a beat! |
Looks like you guys had good fun. Sorry I missed it - although the conditions at the beach were pretty freakin' awesome. Next time.............
|
while you were having fun i lifted my truck...
next time guys!!! |
Hey Marc, looks like you had fun. Was bummed to miss it, I did get to go to Surf N Turf in Pismo, took my 2yr. old son with me he lasted all day and finally fell asleep during the movies by the fj cruiser trail team. All day today he kept asking to go back to see the "big trucks", ha ha I have got him hooked. I can't wait to catch a desert trip with you guys. It looks like the SAS is rockin' and the new kicks look good too!

Didn't get many good photos, but this has striking similarities. Glad Juan was able to man the ebrake and I was able to back up and take a better line for that one. :P |
Looks like fun. Wish I actually made it out there.
Here's my story. Woke up 5:00am. Jumped in the shower. Pushed the girlfriend out of bed, got in the truck and left the house at 5:30. Excited to try out the newly rebuilt motor! Cruising down the 78 freeway towards the I15. Just before Twin Oaks I realized that my truck was feeling sluggish. I give it some gas to to see why I'm barely hitting 50mph. I hear the valvetrain rattling as I hit the gas, I look at the temp, all looks good. Next thing I know my radiator cap is bubbling over. I go to pull over and the engine dies. I coast to the shoulder. Pop the hood, open the oil cap......MILKSHAKE! No external leaks on the gasket, but definitely blown inside. I think the radiator was the culprit, this time and last. I've only got 4-500 miles on my fresh rebuild (Brand New Head and remachined bottom end). Everything else cooling related had been replaced, so it has to be the radiator. I think it gets clogged and the pressure just builds until teh HG blows. Anyway, Marc sorry I wasn't out there, but at this rate I wish I had flaked on ya. As soon as it's up and running again, I'm coming out to grab that brace. I feel like a douche. |
Looks like the SAS is working great. If you go to 35's later, you gonna need bumpstops on all corners.
Next time.... |
I have 3 1/2 inch bumpstops on the front and the stock ones in back...I did get just a little rubbing on the inner fender well just above my steering box. I am not planning on going with 35's anytime soon.
I was pretty suprised with the amount of flex I got out of the front on this trip...having all 4 tires on the ground was a nice change. Anthony...pay attention to the Superstition 9 planning...you will have a blast!! |
well it's good to see marc's sausage party was a great success..... hehe j/k i wish i could have made it but i still need to beat some sheetmetal straight so i can get the doors open..... beside it looks like my old house will be in escrow tommorow and that means i can have so dough to get some new tires and suspension that will actually have more then 2' of down travel.... anyone want some northwest offroad springs 4" pieces of s@$T.....
