New to this forum, but not new to Toyotas or wheelin', but this hard core rock crawling thing blows my mind!  I was an ASE certified Heavy Truck and Automotive Master Mechanic in a former life, but I retired my tools in 1999.  Now I supplement my income by turning wrenches in my garage at home, after working in an office enviroment in the day.

I currently own a bone stock Tundra AC 4x4, previous vehicle was a 1990 sr5 4x4 flatbed.  I hope to eventually get another 22re 4x4 to build, but with two small kids and a stay at home wife, I will probably just have to live vicariously through you guys.  I guess that makes me a "web-wheeler" of finest nature, but I'm cool with that.

3 CAT scans a MRI and some time with the shrink and it's comfirmed. I'm just not right in the head.
