Get tied up and busy for a little while and this thread blows up. Dang, I've missed a lot.

Chef, I didn't think you ever got your rig dirty.

 

planning a trip to corral canyon, a pretty rad OHV area east of san diego with my buddy. We heard there was a little car meet right by work and decided to go check it out... As every one left they did their little engine revving... and ricer flyby's.. so my friend decided to walk his truck out of the lot. I've never seen so many cool kids look so scared!

 

unfortunately i was videoing him walking it, and didnt get the best picture. Oh, and his children were pretending to be scared, screaming in the back seat.

 

Hey Blakefogt... Know anything about your buddies rear bumper/ spare tire carrier? Looking to do a set up like that on my Runner.

 

Hahahahaha, thats funny, Blake! U didnt go to Tierra Del Sol Annual Desert Safari Event, last weekend?, did u? Woulda bn cool to have seen u.

Coral.... just u and some buddies?

 

No I missed it! I didn't honestly know about it... And yes coral is gonna be with the off road club that basically adopted me. 15 rigs rsvpd but its gonna be damp so I predict more like 6-7. I hear the trails will be.... Quite gnar gnar :p

 

Sounds like fun! Get lots of pics if u see a Red Runner up there, u know I beat u guys up there by a day haha, jk

Sticker on the dash? Yes/No?

 

ive made quite a bit of progress in the last couple of months...

installing a warn rock crawler bumper along with a smittybuilt XRC8 comp winch tomorrow (yes, I see the Irony of putting that winch in that bumper... I dont care)

 

do you have more pictures of your truck? specifically the flatbed?

 

just a couple more... I found it on craigslist in BFE alabama a few months ago


it was originaly built for a Nissan I think, i had to move the frame rails (of the bed) in quite a bit to line up with the frame rails of the truck...

and I cut the rear plate to be 3 inches shorter so I would have a better approach angle

pics:

Right after I put the flat bed on:

tool box on:


the way I hauled that heavy bish home all the way from central AL:


thats all the pictures I have for now, ill get a few more when I get the bumper on/ cab painted/ bed line X'd
