Im in Rogue River....im down for wheelin with fellow Toyota owners lol

 

I was definitely up for makin the trip and goin with yal but figures I gotta work at 11 on Saturday, looks like I'm gunna miss this one next time hopefully I can get it off.

 

Well don't feel bad I can't get the day off either and I just finished my tranny swap

 

That sucks man. I figure on the bright side by the time everyone gets around to doin this again I should have my B.J. spacers installed and will be a tad bit more capable.

 

Yeah that's sweet man I really wanna make a wheeling trip with everyone it'd be cool to meet some new people that are into wheeling

 

rob are all weekends bad?? I work a normal 9 hour a week only during the weekday job. Its really the only time I can go is saturday or sunday. I am taking this girl and her daughter who have never been wheeling and my two kids turns no one can watch them so its a soccer mom wheel trip for me!! its cool though really just trying to get together with others so that we can take real trail trip!! I got the maps for the Oregon Back Country Discovery Route and want to run that next june!! 750 miles from cali to washington with very little pavment. I gotta build the truck up a little and get prepared. I am hoping to find someone who wants to run at least half of it and I will have to get along well enough to camp by for a week or so

 

yeah that would be an awesome wheeling trip! too bad i'm starting school soon
Need to get a better job eventually! been puttin it off too long.
goin to pick up some 33s tomorrow! whoo!

 

well that isnt going to happen until next june really maybe may but there is alot of high mountain travel and I want to try it near summer time. I heard its not to hard core of a trail and 80 percent can be ran in an f150 with a 3inch lift and 33s so i am sure that our yotas make an easy trip of it. I need to do alot of modding to get the truck in a situation where I can hold enough parts and camp gear. I am sure there is no way i talk a girl into this trip without installing a shower set up in the truck as well. Which by the way is ok with me I like when girls are fresh anyway haha!!

 

Haha yeah. well next june maybe more doable.
Lol they have those solar showers =-)

 

That sounds awesome I'd love to do a run like that ha and no Its just I'm 18 and it's my senior year so I'm school weekdays then weekends I work for a semi trucking company at their shop and we've been pretty busy the last couple weeks I can usually get time off though so next time I should be there ha

 

damn whipper snappers!! haha I am 28 and it seems long ago that I was 18. What do you do at the truck shop? maybe next time.

 

I got a pesky pulley bearing i need to replace here quick,
The squealing is getting terrible lol

 

yeah solar showers kinda suck though. I guess propane is ok but i dont use propane for anything else in camping. I am master of camp fire cooking and i use led headlamps for light. I have been looking into the one that hooks up to the engine but am worried about gas consumption when on long trips that is an issue.

 

Haha mainly just greasin and fluid changes I wash trucks and do cleanup too basically all the little stuff but it's decent pay and they work around my school so I can't complain ha and yea for sure I need to see how tough that new tranny is!

 

Yeah that could def. be a problem.
They have those super slim fuel cells.
or you can always stick a big ol tank under there.

 

what have i learned since owning a toyota.....

I think its an addicting money hungry roller coaster of fun haha

 

i have been thinking about running the 29 gallon ford fuel cell in the spare tire area but I need to build a bumper with a tire swing on it first and I got a welder from harbor freight and I think if i can sell my weber carb I will get a bender next.

 

Btw anyone have a 4 56 third member or decent arched rear springs they'd wanna sell?

 

I have a 90 amp flux core welder from HF
and its a GREAT welder for the price.
Specially since they put the fan in them.
Keeps up with my buddies Lincoln no prob.

 

yeah i am going to start welding my first project a roof rack I think following this plan https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f88/...ensive-209323/
