lol thanks man.

We are going up Saturday/Sunday. Didn't go last weekend because the snow is horrible and my buddy had to work. I was hoping it would melt off a little but I didn't expect these storms, so it looks like it's going to be another muddy mess.

Waiting on a tax check, and I'm pretty set on some 37" pitbull rockers (they are the same price as the Irok in a 37x12.5r15, then the price jumps like crazy for a 17" wheel)… except they are unavailable. Pitbull says they can't produce enough to keep them on the shelf and they have about a month lead time. I'm still waiting to hear back from them on a quote and eta.

I'm thinking of selling these beadlocks I bought and just buy another set of steelies that are actually ROUND lol… So many options, so little money. Once I get some 37's, I'll sell the iroks + wheels and pick up some chromos for the 44. Then, try to save more money to get some air bumps in.

I can see a noob thread opening soon asking if 10" spacer lifts are possible. Your going to blow minds with that signature, Rob!

Maybe a 5" Spacer lift and 5" Body lift?! Always get a good laugh from you...
Awesome photos by the way! You get shit done son.

hahaha well, I have some eibach 10" coil springs for sale on craigslist - they were the first ones I put on (upper springs for my front coilovers, they were too short), and this guy sends me an email asking if the springs would give him a full 10" of lift. I have them for sale for $100. Common sense pleaaaasssseeee!!! Yeah, this pair of springs will lift your cummins diesel 10" for only $100!

Haha! Oh God. He's in for a rude awakening...

Well I'm hating how my phone still cannot seem to focus correctly to take a picture, so here are some blurry pics.

Gotta love how someone moves over to let someone by, and they clip their tire, pull their bead, and just drive off.

Ahhh I want to revisit the cabin!

Alright, not really an update but the pitbulls are unavailable so I've changed my mind to some 38x14.5r17 MTR's. After I pick up the wheels and tires hopefully next month, I'll sell the Irok's to fund some RCV's. RCV's have a 30 spline outer, so I'll also need some 30 spline Warn hubs. Going to truss the 44, and grab some hydro assist in the near future along with some synergy ball joints. Get this turd of a dana 44 polished.

Other news, my friend's truck is driving.
2000 4runner, 5speed, Supercharged, Ford KP 60/14 bolt, reids, arctic brackets and truss', high angle drivelines, Atlas 4 speed, 14" profenders in the front, 12" profenders in the rear, hydro assist, 5.38's, a shit-ton of metal, ARB's front and rear, 3link/3link, etc, etc, etc.

Came out pretty sick! Still needs some more cutting, air bumps mounted up, some other stuff cut, new bumpers, sliders, etc etc, it's always endless.

What size tres was he on? And some "39s will be a good matchup for you. What was his wheelbase at???

Those are the 40x13.5r17 MTR's. Not sure on his wheelbase. They extended the front of the frame to accommodate, and pushed the rear a tad bit farther than mine. I'm at 108"ish… I can't remember. So he's probably around 118"? maybe? I'll get a measurement because now I'm interested too lol.

I might consider some 39's, but I really like the 38's. I think they'd be a good matchup for the RCV's and the 44. We shall see when the cash is in my hands...

New 1975 K20 3/4 ton Master Cylinder = $40.

New stainless brake line = $20-something.

New fittings for MC etc = $30-ish.

Holidays are lame.

Truck is still sitting.

I hate Prius'.

Gotta get it back driving this week, we have a vendor spot at Calrocs again for this Saturday. 38's either this week or next week. I'm so close.

:cheers:

I won't be forgetting that green prius anytime soon lol

Slowing taking the truck to the shop in the morning and getting my brakes back :thumb3:

Pedal was too mushy?

No, Drew came up to Chico Saturday morning to get some light bar mounts installed and we were headed to the hardware store to grab some self tappers. A lady in a prius who apparently forgot she was driving ran a red light waaayyy after the fact and I slammed on the brakes as hard as I could and barely missed her. Even just on 35's I exploded the drivers-side stainless brake line and lost all my brakes. So tomorrow I'm swapping master cylinders to a 1-ton MC.

$40 and 2 fittings. You should do it asap.

You better take plenty of pictures! I've been debating tundra brakes and rear discs for a while and i've heard a bigger MC is extremely helpful. Haven't really seen many good writeups and lots of different info as to if it is a straight bolt on application or not.
