ooooo k. i have been doin alot of thinking and have decided to go back to my short bed and move my rear springs forward to allow for the stock wheelbase.

Well I added a tool box in the back. It definitely serves a purpose, but I'm not sure if I like it. For now it'll have to do. Id really like to re-do the front bumper but I think lockers and sliders are higher on the list.

i went to browns camp this weekend still muddy ass hell but no snow that i saw....made it up waterfall did some firebreaks then i went up can opener got to the last little rock face. and i had someone winch me up cause i got tired of messing with it and when i was getting winched up one of my steering box bolts stripped out.

i tried fishing a smaller bolt through but no luck so then i just took a bolt the same size just different thread pitch smashed it in and tightened it down snug as possible strapped an industrial ziptie around it for a just in caser and drove the son of a pregnant dog home

toyotanner · « **Reply #169 on:** Jun 08, 2008, 05:31:21 PM »

my truck after the day trip to browns camp yesterday.

broken corner marker accidently hit my friends truck... i thought i was gonna make it lol

AND last but not least the trail fix to get home the shiny bolt on the lower right is what i pounded in and crossthreaded in and the industrial ziptie for piece of mind. DROVE IT HOME

rcbro · « **Reply #170 on:** Jun 08, 2008, 06:04:20 PM »

we'll have to plan a trip to browns camp sometime. How was the weather and conditions?

toyotanner · « **Reply #171 on:** Jun 08, 2008, 06:42:29 PM »

it was cloudy with some sun breaks pretty good day to be out there actually NO RAIN surprisingly. i saw a bobcat or some sort of mt. cat it was crazy

I'm down to go up anytime

rcbro · « **Reply #172 on:** Jun 08, 2008, 07:29:19 PM »
