Is your friend's GF coming? If so, they can take a peek at the rig... the lift isn't for the faint of heart... but it IS a true 5" that will clear 35's w/ NO steering or castor issues... anything less is a compromise in terms of safety AND performance...

Ryan, your going to be in st. simons?? what are you doing down there?? I lived there for 4 years and its only an hour away from here. I need to take another trip down there to see some old friends... I also don't think scott was complaining about the fact that he was going to be drinking with hot young girls, I think he was just stating that its been a while since he has done that ( just kidd'n buddy)

I can't wait to see what J ends up doing after a few beers... Man, I hope nobody passes out erly... we have been bad with that lately...

pooor, poor matt _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ The sad thing is that Robin wasn't passed out for this...
$20 a night or $20 total? i don't mind crashing on the floor either, doesn't really bother me as long as i can get a shower at some point i am good to go.

I wish I had the money for a set of 42" TSLs and a 351 and this beast will go to tellico. I found 15x12 bead locks for around $100



But for now This will do

Matt got these links for the rear of 4Runners. $175 a set for any length is any one wants any. They are 3/4 chromoly and have teflon for long life. They are rated around 20K pounds.

UPS has apprently lost my sliders. It is already over delivery due date and I had to begin the "tracing" process. Not sure if im gonna go if I dont have sliders on. The only thing that saved me last trip was nerf bars and those got beat up real bad! (course now i got 5" lift and 33's so i will be higher). I say we go riot at UPS to get my sliders!

Did you get a tracking #? If so, I'm sure they will be easy to find.
If not, I say we riot!

Yeah my sliders didn't show up as sechdualed either, cough Brian, cough.

Doesn't really matter b/c I won't have my truck until next week. My TJM arrived today, now I just need my shackels and Levo gauges to show up before Nov. 5th.

Good luck with getting your sliders in time, I think your lift and tires will make up for the lack of armor, I on the other hand need mine, 265's aren't going to cut it.

Austin if Jon doesn't want those I might, he has plently of lights already. PM me with what you would be looking for.

I was in Jackson on the 7th... I wonder if that's the set that I saw on the side of I-55 that were mangled from being run over numerous times by semi's... They were in front of the Chrysler dealer in the Southbound lane (far right one) and were totally mangled. They were silver (unpainted) and looked like stubbs the way they were wrapped in clear plastic. hmmmm...

That's just wrong, you never mess with a man and his mods, we all know how serious we feel about these things. :cry:

My brother has the hook up from a race shop. The have them any size. Those in the pic were for the lower. He is debating on getting Johnny joints or maybe 1" joints for them. He has to wait till tuesday to get his upper lengths. We can get the joints any size.

Austin I think I might wait for some driving lights.
