I'd love new neighbors like you guys maybe then some of these Northern goobs would go home !

The West side of Royal Blue is more like the Moab, more rocky, but after our last run up there, all of us can make it no problem. It's just enough challenge, and there's more stuff to mess around on if Joe wants to play.

I might make this one, but i cant do anything like slick rock again, (ive still yet to replace the clutch, and gear it) but the dual transmission project is about to go into the works, someone has started it and put it in their truck and it looks promissing, just wating to see if it will hold up before i start on it.

that's cool,i'll try to hook up with you the next time we go to the inlaws,,they live in millbrook,,, proly first of next year,,,let me know if you need the money sooner and we'll work it out!!! as far as tire size,,,33/12.5/15's on 15x8 black rock crawlers,,,the aluminum wheels was a bad idea for off roading!!! i thought about getting the street locks,but the reinforcement they offer for the bead seat wouldn't justify the money,,,it's cheaper just to buy a new wheel,plus i'm getting 6 so i'll have 2 spares,,,even though i have never had a tire failure,,,ya'll have fun!!!! later

i am really surprised this many people goto Windrock...i never noticed how many of you live in or near Tn...but wouldn't it be closer to alot of you to go to Tellico?
seeing how many of you are from Tn made me register to post now...i have just always read your articles for help from previous post...its cool to see some people in Tn driving yotas...where i'm from jeeps seem to clog the roads...
i also wanted to say that the people who post helpfully on here have really taught me quite a few things i didn't know..its good to have a place where you can look up almost anything about a toyota..

We've been to Tellico 3 times in the last 8 months, we're just going to Windrock for different trails and a change of scenery.
