Dude ya gotz a sick build going on bro. I have a 87 runner i'll be start n here soon. I might of missed it but wat tire size ya plan on running again when bulid is done? Also the little helper ya gotz rocks. If ya dont mind me ask n, wats up wit his eyes? I have a 2 and a half year old daughter that has some eye issues also. ONH if ya know wat that is. Her optic nerves were not fully developed, she just rules though. love her to death. well keep up the good work, i'll be following bro!! 

[NITE KRAWLERS]

I forgot to ask also are you planing four link in rear or anything or just leafs all around?? I seen your plan n on 38's so i got that.

What size tires are on the truck? Buildin a Runner to make room for the helper?

Hey mangler I just read back a little and it clicked that you are going to make us wait till February for the SAS. For a race? You better post some pics of that! We have high expectations of you, don't flopp it up!

I plan onrunning either a 38 or 39 inch tire. I will prob run leaves all the way around because our trails on the East Coast have alot of side hill obsticles. Link setups tend to unload on a side hill, and winching then down doesnt really change that. I ran leaves on my last rig and still took it more places than most due to the fact that I have no remorse for breakage or body damage.lol

Skye was cross-eyed to the point where his brain had turned off his right eye to stop him from having double vision. We had to put a patch over his good eye, rendering him blind, to force his bad eye to turn back on. Once his bad eye started working again, we started straightening it out with the help of his glasses. It was a huge wrestling match for about a month because you cant cover an 18 month old childs eyes and expect them to like it. When we noticed his eye starting to function again, we were able to start using the patch 2 hours a day, every day. Now he is 2 and a half, his eyes are straight, but his vision is still bad. The prescription on his glasses is +4. Now he loves his glasses because he can see good out of both eyes when he has them on, but he will have to wear them for life, and he will have to wear his patch 2 hours a day untill the Doc says otherwise.

BTW
  Its nice to have a few other Dads around here that understand and appreciate the sappy stuff.

I'm a sap when it comes to kids. When I hear about kids with any kind of problems it pulls on my heart strings. Its good that you guys spend a lot of time with them it will make them better people in the long run.

I don't know how you do it! I found the cleanest 85Runner around and have spent a year of blood sweat, tears and every dime I could pull together building it. When I rub against a rock or lay it down I am going to cry. When that happens I will post pictures of me crying so you can see How big of a girl thingy I am. I believe you are what you eat, so don't be a richard.

I'm not jack n manglers thread but the tires are 37" mtrs, love em they do great. Ya build n da runner for the kids, hate to see green machine go but i need the room. I acually have 4 girls and they love to go crawl n, kinda hard in the single cab ya know. They like just rip n around in the runner like it is cause we can all fit in it.

Well mangler i'm glad to see his eyes are doing good and he likes the glasses. We had to do the same wit the patches for Malz but only a hour a day, still doing that. She didn't like it either till we all ran around wit patches for awhile. she cool now bout it. were glad its wat it is now cause when she was born we were told she was blind. Kinda hit me like a brick but delt wit it i guess. gotta love her she makes my day. I think she cant see color or very far out, but not sure wat she can all see. she gets around good but her eyes wonder around. Not sure on glasses yet, we go back to denver in a couple months for another check up. Might find more out then.Well tell skye to keep up the good work so ya can get this beat finished, even if its all dented. lol lata

[crawlerdad]

External hard drive is the only way to go. Now that he is gone we can talk all sorts of crap about him.

Not like it would matter anyway, I only live about a gazillion miles away from you guys. lol

[crawlerdad]

I would only talk because you have done more cool with your runner than I have with mine. Now hurry up and go build something so I can get some motivation to go do something with mine. If you notice I don't have a build thread so no one can say hurry up or I wouldn't have done it that way or why are you in the bathtub with a opossum?  Now go put in some dual cases I wanna see how hard it is.  

[crawlerdad]

Did you lose your cat???  

Not like it would matter anyway, I only live about a gazillion miles away from you guys. lol

Be glad you live that far away! I would be bugging you all the time to help me with my Runner.

LOL No, im not Justin from U-fab.
I am Shawn from Mangled Customs, or Big Jakes Fab. If it is a toyota, I got you covered. Cases are fast and easy. I would be glad to help anytime you are ready.

[Dark Knight]

awesome. would be great to have some guidance setting up my dual cases and with other parts of the build, no one in Johnson City is doing anything like this...... I have a box of parts but no adapter yet hopefully I'll get some $$ together for that soon!
