Got a new to me truck so I'm giddy to go out and shake it down..
Need to cut that awful front bumper off and cut some goofy extensions off the rear before it's ready to wheel but it's got all the good stuff. Tacoma width sky's housing, longs, psc hydro assist and detroits. Drives 75 with one finger on the wheel to boot

Nifty rig, Conner.
Tony like.
Below zero wrenching, Geoff, I'll take a zero on that one.
Tony no likey.
But it is supposed to be in the 40s tomorrow & I will be out there working on it!!! (I hope)

That bumper looks just like the one we cut off my 4runner when I got it., also had to cut junk that was hanging off the rear. What is wrong with some people??
The world demands an update from Tony's garage..

Well let me tell ya.
The weather was super decent, I wake up feeling great & the wife tells me my son, his wife & the grandchildren are coming over at noon. So I go out & trim the rear quarter panels & trim the front fenders. And that's all I got done on Saturday.
Sunday it's less decent but I still go out & change the pilot bearing, install the flywheel, put on the new clutch & install the transmission. Still gotta change the output seal, install the dual case set up, build drive shafts & cross member & go out & wheel it!!

Woo hoo, looking forward to seeing the 4Runner again. So I see what I thought you cancelled over the weekend to work on the truck...

Yeah, we hated to cancel the meeting. We're very close to a break through.

His even lesser known brother Bobsquatch, will come right out & let you take photos. Always anxious for attention he often invites himself over for dinner if you talk to him for too long.

Got the dual cases in & made the cross member. Made the drive shafts & took it out wheelin in my woods.
Almost immediately realized I need a winch for wheelin by myself in 20" of snow. But I digress.
I love gears!! Dual t-cases are great, my favorite upgrade always.
My new ( to me ) tires & wheels are awesome. Thanks Mark!!
Lookin forward to the March run. Hope to have all the other little details done like the seat back in & stuff like that.

I should be able to send the hi-steer arms with someone local. Was there anything else? I cant think of anything, but I can't remember if I drank those memories away...

Is anyone local coming? Thus far only Mark & Conner have said they are coming. But if someone is & you wanna send them that would be awesome. Will they take your wheels back with them? If so I will bring those. Joe has some stuff for me, if you wanna send that stuff also, if he has it ready. But again no rush, I'm not near ready for any of it.
I'm driving through Chicago 2x this week/weekend going to Rockford and back if anybody wants to meet me with parts for Tony
