Old new guy from WA the state
« on: May 30, 2010, 08:11:08 AM »
Hey, been browsing here a while thought I'd drop a note and spec out my ride.  :clap2: Built for snow runnin', 40 min from my front door, Nov-April.
1982 long box, locked front and rear, 4.88's, 22RE carbed with an Offy and Weber, NWOR header, A340F with manual shift control, 36" IROK's, custom front and rear plate bumbers, XD9000i on front, bobbed 10.5", 63" Chev. springs, 3" Ranchos on the front with 2" longer shackles, on board CO2, and a GPS. Currently finishing up the bob making it look pretty before I cover it with rattle can bedliner and Krylon. :yesnod: Building a rack/mount setup for gas cans, jack, shovel, small cooler(I don't drink), tool box(cause I wheel with Jeeps) :greengrin: and a spare tire mount.
Crossover steering is on my short list.
Duals and then a motor swap is at the top of the long list. I hate to loose the low end smooth torque of the 22r but I need a little extra umph for goin down the trail. Thinking on the 3RZ  :headscratch: swap,but ????????????

Welcome   :welcome:
YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE
AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.

IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU HAVE AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.
