Noob checking in from the Palmetto state.
« on: Dec 05, 2007, 11:58:02 PM »
I'm not new to offroading just a little new to web-wheeling.  I'm on the downward slide of my first Toyota build.  I still have a few loose ends I need to get tied up on the truck and then I'll at least be 90% of the way with it.  I dont think i'll ever be 100% percent satisfied with anything on the truck.  I've already used this site for a lot of great information on my rig already and look forward lots more.

Thank all of you for your positive comments so far on the truck I'm pretty proud of it even though I know it still has a long way to go with alot of things that I am still not happy with.

cool truck... just wondering why the exo is set so far from the body? do you get a lot of body flex?

I cant really answer that question.  I picked the truck up as a partially finished project fr a friend that had started and lost interest in it.  He's a big Jeep fanatic.  Are you talking about the side of the exo around the xtra cab mainly.

I need to finish the skid plate and figure out some on board air.  I have 2 Fireman tanks I picked up from a friend that I'm trying to find some fittings for.  Other that that I want to finish the skins for the front fenders and bed sides.  Next big project is going to be hydraulic assist.
