Low Lift!   I know i say that every year, but this time it's for real.   :gap:

New bead lockers, and tires to match.

Install Recaro trophys.  The broken stock seats are killing my back.

My things to do
-install front ARB (DONE).....Just got my mini compressor in the mail today actually.....waiting on axles.

-replace rear springs from 5" to 6"(UN-DECIDED)
-I too need to hook up my onboard air(DONE).....Installed Vi-Air constant duty kit. Works great and very clean kit.


-get new rear drive shaft from Tom woods BAMF cv (IN the works)
-Also waiting on my chromo shafts for the front. Baseline 4x4 had a great deal on my 44 shafts.
-Got these for the front.....
http://www.ebay.com/itm/221595647418?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT#ht_422wt_1124......no one else makes outer seals for my old 44. Or atleast that i could find.
Also re-routed my exhaust to clear my air tank and quited it up alot.....doesnt sound like a drag car anymore

-Built some adjustable bump stop brackets from some hitch tubing and welded to u-bolt plate.....worked out great.

-Installed MC short throw.......wow the difference. My trans was already fresh, but i love the new feel.
\
-Welded some new tabs on my hoops to get some more shock shaft exposed for up travel. Gained 2.5" of shaft and these tabs were like 1$ each on amazon.....

90'4runner......lots of goodies.

As a heads up, there will also be a work party on Cadillac Hill Sept 18-20th.

On Friday, they will be doing mostly the prep work, but on Saturday they will be pouring concrete.  Cadillac Hill will have next to no passage on Saturday the 19th due to shoring up and stabilizing the hill.  Thanks in advance for your understanding and cooperation.

This should not effect anyone coming in via Loon or WWS, but if you plan on dropping in on Saturday from Tahoma, you will not be able to get by. 

Sunday it should be clear for us to exit as normal.
