Looks pretty good I like tough sounding trucks. Plan on a forty series for the 4runner, and I run dual Flowmaster 40's on my Z71.

I like your taste

Running one of those el'cheepo turbo mufflers that looks liek a glasspack on my 4runner right now, a little quieter than a 40 but not by much. my dually came with a flowmaster knockoff called "raven performance" till I went under the truck I thought it was a pair of flowmaster 40s.

Trick on this install was flipped the flow master around inlet is outlet. Causes th resonance to decrease but deeper sound. No disruption of flow. Just nice deep tone. Makes you think there was a V-8 in there until I hit the crawl pedal. When the V-8 goes in 70 series with 2.5 and out 3.0 pipe no cats duals all the way!

The BSLCA Adopt a Road signs are up on Highway 89 (Youngsville Highway). One is at the corner of 89 and Pinhook and the other at the intersection of 89 and Albertson's parkway. They look good. Guess we gotta start cleaning.

Disney 08

Well, we're home. Had an awesome time and gave Disney much $$$.

Have a TON of pics but I had to share one:

We do the dinosaur ride and honest to goodness more than one person comes up to me and says I HAVE to see our picture and I HAVE to buy it!

Think you'll enjoy it.

(umm... That's Will on the right side of the pic...........lol)

Let me assure you this is the real deal. It's the end of the ride when this HUGE dino jumps out and they snap a pic of you at the same time. It's dark and the flash is just a split second.

Like the "Flash Mountain" pics : Flash Mountain: Flasher #1 on Splash Mountain at Disneyland

Grettings from Greece. Trying to take pics of everything that may look like a 4wd of interest. Saw an old MB Unimog used by a local fire department, had a bad ass winch, huge tires and breezed past me too fast for me to get camera, still, will bring and post some pics of other stuff rarely seen in USA.

What cruiser are you building? Why haven't we seen it? How big is your closet?

LOL.. none really. When I had the 79 I amassed this TON of parts and put them in my bedroom closet. I have everything from master cylinders, to new Painless wiring harness. Was gonna do the big break down but obviously plans always change. Landry always said it was like a small Toyota parts store and I could build a cruiser from just the parts in there. Soo... I'm always looking for stuff for the closet. ...and portal axles would go nicely

Later
me

Scott, that picture is great. When I think of you, that's the facial expression I imagine.


Also, non-Cruiser related question: What's the best way to hook multiple computers up to one big printer? Anyone? Anyone?

If you have a wireless broadband router that runs on more than one computer, the host computer is the only one that need to be directly plugged into the printer. Works for me. My daughter goes through tons of paper and ink all the time from her computer. Not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing, being that ink costs almost as much as printers.

Try getting the ink cartridges refilled at a place like walgreens. I don't know about dell but they do refill my HP brand printer and it is like 1/3 the price of a new ink cartridge.
