That's hilarious justina!  The one time it's blatantly obvious that a car's been long since abandoned somebody actually clarifies it.  You crack me up!

Well, rather clarify than deal with people getting upset about it :hammer:

Hey Kevin keep in touch.  We're in South Sac and we go whenever we get the chance.  Greenhorn is just out of Colfax between Colfax and Grass Valley.  :thumbs:


So Justin, not this weekend, but the next maybe? :eyebrow:

What suspension setup are you running? and how did it cost? Your truck is the inspiration for my daily driver work truck out of a long bed.
83 toyota shortbed, 90 rear axle, 5.29's f/r, spools f/r, 22/20 hybrid w/propane, 37 mtrs. dual transfer cases. http://board.marlincrawler.com/index.php?topic=22712.0

i am down to go out again.  greenhorn was alright to go test out my new ram steering.  not a lot of really challenging places, but i always like taking my truck out.  it was still fun we found some rock fields before we left that we will have to explore if we go back.   the suspension is 5" all-pro long travel springs, with a drop hanger in the front.  i run wide body greasable shackles f&r and long travel shock hoops in the front.  i have 12" shocks in the rear and 14" in the front.  i got a deal on the all pro stuff that why i went that route.  i am a little dissapointed that the springs bent so quickly but the fronts were partly my fault.

tires are 325/80/16 roughly 37/13.5/16.  i got a deal on the beadlocks so thats why i have 16's.  i haven't gotten a new block for the re conversion.  i have an 85 block in my truck already so i am putting 86 efi on it.  i just have to spend the time to gut it and rewire.  i might rebuild my motor too i haven't decided yet.  i like my lift it work well.  i wish i had the money to  4 link it but this does the job for now.

Do you have your front axle moved forward at all? I also plan to run 37" Pro Comp XTC's but my front axle is pushed 3" forward.

so late sat night/sun morning i decided that i wanted to go play on sunday.  i managed to get one other guy to go so we went out to frank raines in patterson.  the trail is fun it is short but it was still a good time.  not too much damage my friend got some dents in the cruiser and i snapped all of my driveline bolts in the front.  i think that they were week from getting stuck on the car.  it snapped all four clean on the t-case side.

i don't have any pics of the main trail area they are on a different camera but here is some of my buddy ryan driving my truck.  there was a little rock field that i figured he couldn't jack my truck up too bad in.  he has never driven a crawler before
