What did you do with your Toy Today

Starting a new thread for people in the Texas Panhandle to post what they did with their Toyota(s) today. This should be a good way for Panhandle Cruiser's to get aquainted with our rigs and each other. Let us know if you worked on it , drove it to Pak a Sak , had issues with it ,went to Palo Duro and hiked or cooked out etc. FYI those that may not know, you can also subscribe to the threads and get e-mail notifictions of new and updated posts, later all

Old Man Emu is now a friend of mine !

All and all it was a easy install , I will mention and this was key ,, Get a cherry picker and lift the vehicle, then drop the axles w/ a couple of floor jacks .. It worked like a charm for me and the 80series , I didnt have to use a bunch of tools either all your standard mechanics hand tools a bfh and some prybars . The back was finished last night in about three hours , the front was today and about the same time . I even had time to clean the garage and look at it a while ! I will post pictures later !
