I thought you had the front hanger moved up an inch or two?

My front springs move the axle forward close to 2 inches.  On the back, I welded the spring hanger & shackle hangers back 4" of where they were suggested, moving my wheelbase back 4".

Found my new paint scheme (my buddy Jeremiah suggested it!)



:laugh:

Would you still run BV Carnage with me at the Jambo if it was painted this color??  :slap:

When debating an exo cage being gay or not, I told my girl "Hell, I'll paint it hot pink as long as it saves my ass in a roll!"

She got a silly look in her eyes when I said that...  :eyebrow:

A buddy of mine used to have a pink roll cage in his 4Runner.  While he was in Iraq, his wife quite a few companies to donate parts to fully build his 4Runner while he was away.  The only stipulation was she got to pick what color it got painted :)



This was my last trip out to Patriot out in Penrose.  Robert's 4Runner is now an F-Toy and he placed 17th in the last chance qualifier race at this year's King of the Hammers race.  He won a spot in the big race tomorrow and will be starting in 77th.

Add the M8000 with the roller fairlead (reg price $539) into your shopping cart and it shows the free wireless remote.  Then add "BigDeal4U" into the promo code box and it takes off another 10% off the winch ($54)

Warn M8000 with a free wireless remote shipped free for $486!!  Probably the best deal I've ever seen on this winch.

Hahahahahaha, bit the bullet and ordered one for myself  :greengrin:

I've wheeling way too many tough trails without a winch for several years now.  I always hate relying on somebody else to have to winch me through the exit of BV Carnage or the exit at Patriot.  It's a pain to have them turn around (sometimes when it's almost impossible) just to hook a winch.

Total came out to $521 since they charge tax (they have stores here in CO).  Still a good deal considering it comes with a wireless remote ($120).  I plan on keeping it for awhile & can be transferred to other rigs in the future if need be.
