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.

when i do this i will also be putting in my duals and flatbelly to get the driveline situation taken care of..

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 :thumbs:

toyotanner

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 :thumbs:



rcbro

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

toyotanner

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 :thumbs:  but i'm gonna start the tear down here pretty soon so it will be down for hopefully only 2-3 weeks

rcbro

right on, i'd be down for something next month. Heading to florence for 4 days the weekend of the 20th

TheCookieMonster

toyotanner
