Hello, My name is Joshua from Norther VA. I'm a 36 year old fireman with an awesome wife and 3 kids (3rd due next month). I come from a "Toyota Family" and have salivated over 80's for a long time and finally pulled the trigger on this one. I posted when I first joined up but not in the registry yet. Thanks everybody!
I plan on doing a slow build thread soon but the plans (in order) are as follows:
-Gutter Towers and 3/4 Rack, (looking at different options right now, all the usual suspects on mud)
-OME 2.5 (unsure about heavy vs medium still. I live close to IPOR. They are awesome and recommend Heavy/Heavy, but I don't know how much building I'm gonna do yet. Couldn't live with stinkbug either. Probably the hardest decision.)
Big thanks to everyone on the forum here and all the site staff. Shout out to IPOR as well. They did some stuff on my old 85 Yota pickup years ago. I love my rig and love this forum!

Another White 80 in the Fred area ... Not sure how I feel about this! hahaha
If you are going to add on front, rear sliders and a rack, I would do go with a heavy/heavy definitely. It WILL settle, and you will be thankful later. I personally went with TJM 4 progressive springs and ICON shocks. Lance, Jack and Blue should be able to help you out with that stuff. I ordered through them but did the install myself, but they would be able to do it all as you know.
Anyway, nice rig!! Maybe I will see you around!
