I am much more a USAF man myself...but I have to say that the Blues are 100 times better then the Thunderchickens...

HH52s huh..old school Sea Kingd right? one intake? ( nerd alert..you found my weakness )
the 4 horsemen were a C-130 demo team...they did some cool stuff with them ( like the formations we do now...but a tad closer )

I guess I just got burnt out watching them practice almost every day along Gulf Shores when I was in highschool. they flew out of Pensacola and along the beach. That was always a great show with an ice cold cervesa in my hand! haha. I got a program with the thunderchickens autographs from 1978, If I can find it I'll bring it along to Barnwell so you can hang an eyeball on it.

The 4 horsemen I posted are that of the Apocalypse - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_ho...the_Apocalypse

I'm thinking of heading up friday and sleeping in the back of the runner then driving back saturday after wheeling. I live at barker cypress and clay, northwest houston. I'm assuming since you got the TRD edition you got an e-locker in back of that 2WD?

I think there's a petsmart at the intersection of I45 and 1960 on the northeast side if I remember correctly. we could meet there or further up toward The Woodlands. I will go 1960 to I45 and go north from there. I don't know the way either so it'll be fun. I've only driven from here to DFW once in the 7 years I've been in this 'hole.

you can email me at keisur@tx4roc.com so we can exchange contacts and stuff.

now lets get back to talking about airshows, just kidding.

anyone want to drive out to Abilene to help with a lift??

Anyone want to adopt a 30 Y.O. young man??
How much lift are you looking to get? How much is the whole set-up?

I might be able to help, even though I've never installed one. Depending what weekend you do it on?

no, I wastalking about getting off of 45 before we hit that place. I actually am not going to go into town to get on 610. I'm north of 610 so I'll cut over on 1960 or take the beltway over to 59. more than likely I'll take the beltway over there.

it was just under 950.00 for everything ( from 3 guys) I got package B from Mike at extreme (and added a set of 5mm and a set of 10mm trip packers...just to see them) and I also bought a diff drop from sshafer and disco from Lars...

I think I will get about 2.5 inches...

it seems as so many people are willing to help I should get it done in about 20 min then we can all sit around and BS about our rigs.

I think it would be fun for everyone to get together.
