newb checking in
« on: Jun 15, 2005, 11:32:47 AM »
Hello everyone new to this site so i figured i better check in.  Been in the offroading world for about a year now.  Bought an 85yota xtracab last fall and ended up breaking it in half on the first offroad excersion. since then i've been in the process of swapping out my motor and drivetrain into my buddies 85yota taht he gave me that had a blown motor in it.  Right now the only thing keeping it from being done is lack of money for fuel lines, brake lines, and gear oil. hope to have it done soon and looking forward to all the great info on the site. :thumbs:

 :welcome: welcome to the board, and I think I'll let you slide on not posting a picture of your rig. From the sounds of it we may not want to see it just yet. :wave:

well you're correct the frame was rotted that's why it broke.  i have some good pictures of it somewhere i'll have to find them and see if i can get someone to put them up (don't have a scanner so i'll have to give them to someone that does then have them email them to me).  i have gotten some work done on it lately and i need about another $100 for different stuff then it'll be ready to go. i hope to have it done in about 2 weeks. i'll see about getting some pics of it once it's going and burried up to the roof in mud. :greengrin:
