Haha we all got a lesson in Toyota toughness that day! I'm busy with classes until aug 8th, but I might be able to make an appearance at RC during the event. I gave that 62 I got from you Gary to my brother as well, he's been busy working on that and should be street legal again not too much longer.
Cool vids! That on truck cam is sick on 4s lol. What ESC are you running for 4S? I tried 5s on a Castle MMP setup from my erevo and it was too much so I regeared tall as I could and now run 3s. Here's a short video of my brother's truck tearing up my driveway

Thanks Jeff, right now the goal is to just keep the truck street worthy pretty much how it sits now ~5" sua on 33s, shackle reversal, rear locker. Possibly a front locker, half doors, and sliders in the future but I'm happy with how it works now and should probably focus on the rusty...
I've been kinda busy working on the 40 lately. Besides picking at the little bit of rust I swapped the ez locker from one of the 62s to the rear of the 40. Took off the hard top and now it fits in the garage too! I also got a rebuild kit with bearings and seals for the front end, but might wait...
Hey everyone, it's been quite some time since I've been on here. I'm out of the Army now and going to school at PSU. I still have the 40 and 62s but I need to get rid of some of my rigs. I have an 88 and an 89 FJ62 that could be used for parts, one of them could be easily restored. They are at...
Yup, that was me! You should have stopped if you weren't in a rush. My brother and I take our RC trucks to the shale pit behind Subway every once in a while. Anyways, I'm back in Danville now. Got back from the Stan Oct 1st took about a month to out process from the Army and I'm on terminal...
Nice T/A! Those rims and the black paint look sharp. I'm not gonna lie I'm just as excited to get back and drive the new Formula as I am the 40. Maybe even a little more. The car came with front shock tower braces, sub frame connectors, after market anti sway bars and traction bars in the back...
That buggy is looking sick! Turned out they wanted an arm and a leg to paint the whole truck. There was several "hitches" in the first quoted price vs. what they wanted later. So I had them stop work after the undercoating was done, which they had to re-do after they fuct it up the first time...
Here is the truck after the shackle reversal. Front end is sitting a little high but will level it out with some shorter shackles. Should track a little straighter too with the truck pulling the front axle instead of pushing it. Want to throw away those junk shocks that came with the lift and...
For sure! I'd like to meet up with you sometime and have a couple cold ones. Ever been to the Hilltop? Pretty close to Mooresburg which I grew up just outside of. I'll be back sometime around the end of the year, I really want to check out your Cruggy too! Have you taken it to Rausch?
Really dude? I could have sworn you were the one that told me about apple hill in the first place. Anyways they're giving me a discount since I'm deployed. Not really any fab work involved besides the front drive shaft and relocating shackle hangers in the back if they have to after they put...
