The were awesome! A little stiff at first so I cut an inch out and they felt great. It was still a leaf sprung toyota in the desert but felt way stiffer than before. .

I think you're gonna have to start a new thread for the new build. I also just got an extra
Cab to start on. Can't wait.

So I am throwing out a feeler on a price for this thing. If you have read this thread you'll have a good idea of the time and money thats gone into it. Prob have 15K into it easy but know I couldn't get that. Every part of this truck is top of the line parts. Not a junk yard build. So what's she worth?

pumkin toy · « **Reply #428 on:** Apr 19, 2013, 07:08:26 AM »

i'm thinking 8k is what you should be able to get for it. obviously what you might be able to get for it and what its worth are two very different numbers! But I know you understand that.

Slolyfe · « **Reply #429 on:** Apr 19, 2013, 09:38:41 AM »

Yea, I figured 7 to 8k. We will see when the time comes.

Thats depressing. But been wheeling here and there. Had a great time at the round up. But nothing new on the truck or house hunt. Cheers!

That thing looks awesome!

Slolyfe · « **Reply #433 on:** Nov 20, 2013, 03:36:08 PM »

Thanks it's doing great. Got back from a snow fordyce trip last week. Beat the crap out of it for the last 4 trips without turning a wrench, other than routine maintenance.

superyota · « **Reply #434 on:** Nov 22, 2013, 09:11:37 AM »

Looks like a fun trip.

Kick ass truck man! Looks like fun!

Did I see you going through Oregon House today with your truck on a trailer? I saw a Chevy pulling a yellow first gen around 4pm and I immediately thought of you....

Slolyfe · « **Reply #437 on:** May 08, 2014, 07:45:33 PM »

I'm at work today. So hopefully it wasn't my truck. Hahaha.

Slolyfe · « **Reply #438 on:** May 01, 2015, 10:31:45 PM »

Well it been for ever. But in short haven't done much wheeling. Bought a house, built a shop, had a kid, and broke my leg, which needed two surgeries(which is why i missed MCR last year). But hope to get the truck out and do some wheeling this summer!

i can relate to two out of four of those things, it does hamper the free time for wheeling!

Nice rig. Betcha that lift is one of your favorite toys.

Slolyfe · « **Reply #445 on:** Sep 09, 2016, 07:43:30 AM »

Yup! It is very nice to have. Think I need a second one. There is always a project on one then I can't do normal maintenance on the other vehicles. Haha

Rebuilt the front end this week. FINALLY upgraded to v6 calipers and rotors. Also put in some led brake and reverse lights. Since I haven't had any for a few years.
