New Guy From New Mexico
« on: Jan 22, 2009, 10:29:27 PM »
What up? I live in Farmington, New Mexico. I grew up wheeling in the sandstone all over Farmington with friends and family and figured it is about time to build my own rig. I own a 1979 Toyota hilux 4x4. Right now I'm in the process of installing a lift that consists of All-pro, Marlin, and Sky's Offroad parts. It is taking me longer than i had expected to install but I'm doing all the welding myself and having having fun doing it. Fortunately I have this site for motivation.  Anyway just saying hi and I'll get some pics up after I get 12 posts.
How can I get more flex? That is the question.

rolling over a 37" tire next to the truck helps with motivation too. :yupyup:

Yeah I haven't bought my 37" tires yet but hopefully soon. :eyebrow:
How can I get more flex? That is the question.

Now I'm working on the rear so hopefully it will be rolling soon. :crossed:

Thanks. It is just the factory red that has faded over the years. Red + Sun = Orange  :thumbs:
