Offroad pics, and more shots of the new gas tank.

Here's one. The rest are in my album. Browse and see what other pics you want.

Hit "quote" then the pic will come up as text. Then copy the text, put it in your address bar, remove the ending (.jpeg or something) and go to town.

For short...

Word. It's a secret I use to stalk when peeps don't put out enough pics for my liking  :pirate:

Here's a taste of the mayhem to come. The man with the pics will be back in Fayetteville tomorrow, so I plan to take his pics and put them on my photobucket account.



Jordan7118

Uhhh.... Soo.... Here's the taste of the mayhem...







Here's my friend Dennis's ride...


Here's my buddy Mason's Jeep...



More to come, complete with videos (I think)...

That's it on pics. Friend left his camera in Little Rock...  :sad2:

I think I'll be in Hot Springs this weekend for the long weekend. Josh, let me know if you'll be down to do some driveshafts.

I need to get some 2.5" sch. 40 pipe for another rear shaft (mine pulled apart...) and some 1" square tubing. There's a place in Rogers that I hope to go visit. Or maybe I could convince someone else to get it for me  :eyebrow:  God bless my family... but even then, I don't know that they'd be willing to do that. Poop...

Anyone down to help do some grooving?

 :cool:  :cool: It's alive ! Man glad to see you have it put together enough to wheel it. Sure looks nice I know you have a million more idea's on what to do to Snoopy, but just wheel it before we all have to look through 16 pages before more pictures of it on the trail  :greengrin: J/K. Nice job on the 4Runner .
Nothing puts a smlie on my face like the green glow of 4x4 on the dash !

Hey Albert! Thanks, mayne! Feels good to have it finally runnin' right and on the trail.

Yea, tons more things to do, so this thread will keep going... Hopefully only a couple more pages of this before more wheeling pics. Camera's back to life, so hopefully I'll be able to document more this weekend.

Thanks for the kind words. When will you be back up to Superlift?

Also, I'm searching for a 1/8NPT to 10mm x 1.00 adapter for a line-lock. I'd need two. Please and thank you  :eyebrow:

Haha! It's really moving. I couldn't believe it myself 'til pictures were delivered. Hard work and sacrifice paid off  :driving:

Michael, I sent you a PM. Haven't heard from ya in a while, so I replied to your wave. Hope to hear from ya soon!



UPDATE:
I'll be going home on Friday. I'll work/wheel this whole weekend, then come back to school Monday evening. That should give me enough time to get some serious work done. I'll bring the camera this time  :eyebrow:

Uploaded some pics from this last weekend.

I didn't get everything I had hoped to get done, but I was just kinda burned out and didn't wanna start any big projects.

Here's where I put my ARB switches. Works out really well. Within arm's reach when I need to unlock the front.


Here is the switch for the e-locker. Green means it's locked, red is disengaged. Learned that on a slippery trail  :gap:


This is how you do wiring - tear up your dash and whatnot...


When tire grooving, you want to make sure your tires are warm. This is how you do it if you're garage groovin'...


From one tire


From four tires


Cut up. Got creative with some squiggles in the beginning, but soon realized it wasn't worth the pain in my hands. My pinky is still somewhat numb, and I don't think the feeling is coming back. Dang...  :sad2:


How to make use of a rusty fender - the jigsaw! I'll be using these on Snoop and keeping his rust-free fenders as spares.


Here is my diff breather set-up


That's about all I've got right now. Post up your thoughts.

Looks good. I put my e-locker switches where you have your arb's, perfect spot.

The rear air locker switch is in case the other switch goes out and I need to trouble shoot. I have a spare solenoid, too. Also, I bought the three switch pod, so I thought I'd make use of it....

... And it confuses people...

Here's another issue I'm fighting - http://board.marlincrawler.com/index.php?topic=54258.0;highlight=on+coast

Any of you Arkansans know where to get a decent driveshaft made with some thick-wall stuff? I need it to be made with pretty tight tolerances...

Or should I have an offroad and an on-road shaft???? I know... Kinda getting ridiculous...   :slap:
