I'm down to go wheeling soon... just finished getting sliders and tires on my rig and I'm itchin' to get her dirty.

How are you connecting an iPhone via bluetooth? Every time I've ever tried to pair, I get issues due to apple's restricted bluetooth stack. I ended up getting a wifi OBDII dongle and connected that way.

After a very long drought of doing absolutely nothing to the truck except drive it to work once in a while to keep her running and happy, I've finally done a few fun upgrades: Toyo Open Country AT2 265/75R16 installed, balanced, and alignment done. Deckplate mod in (no pics, but everyone's...

Been looking for a decent set of these - where'd you source yours?

Where in SoCal?

Looking for the in-dash cup holder with slides, shipped to 92672. Got any intact?

Thin paint, a steady hand and a pinstriper's brush will do that nicely.

Cleaned the throttle body, installed a new fuel filter, and changed the spark plugs. She's a happy camper now.

Still got my running boards if you're interested.

The alignment was pretty off. I've got the printout at home, but the guys at the shop said it took some work. She's back into factory specs now though, and rides straight and true. Thanks man! The budget is pretty much spent at this point unless I find some seriously screaming deals. Gotta...

Looks like a decent deal to me! Like others said - watch out for rust. :)

I'm so damn tempted to hit the road and go up to Bear tomorrow. It'll be the last opportunity to go skiing for the year. Not much in the way of wheeling (aside from passing all the cars with chains), but could prove to be fun. Any skiers/boarders thinking the same?

They came of my Desert Dune rig, but the flares and running boards are silver. They're in great shape - lemme know if you're interested and we can meet up!

San Clemente here. '96 4x4 Limited. Figured after a month I should post in here. :)
