For what it's worth, this is what the SRs look like on the Gobi. Sorry, I don't have a better photo but this is what was on my phone. If you are looking for better angles, let me know.
Hey man, I really like that setup. Could you send me a shot of them on at night? Are they floods or a combo?

Will do brother. They are the floods (got them on amazon for ~160). I do you don't have a Gobi but they make a mount for them. Wondering if you can somehow use the mount or figure something out to mount them similar.

I'm picking up what you're putting down. Women, can't live with them, can't live without them

Welp, after seeing all these photos and watching the videos, all I can say is you son of a B! Literally all of the reasons I bought my 4runner summed up in one amazing piece of poetic thread. Now my only problem is with all this inspiration is having to live vicariously through you as I hunker down studying for a big exam over the next three months. (As you can tell how hard I'mn studying currently) :frusty:
Thanks for the inspiration!
EDIT: one question. I don't know much about Old Man Emu lifts (or any lifts to be frank). On the Rocky Road site they show that both front and rear coil springs come in different strengths from comfort to heavy duty in front and medium to expedition in rear. Which do you have and would the normal load requirements be the primary determinant to what you choose there? Would buying the complete OME kit from Rocky Road essentially get what you have? Thanks! -Mike http://www.rocky-road.com/old-man-emu-4runner.html

Thanks for the kind words! I thoroughly enjoy sharing my images.
I have the 884 lights up front with the spacers and the mediums in the rear. I chose that spring rate based on the style of driving I do and what I planned on using the truck for. Since I'll be installing the cbi rear bumper I'm going to add the heavies in the rear.
In my opinion all of the lifts out there are great and there are a lot to chose from. Do your research and get the lift that makes sense. You'll save time and money that way.

Well, I'm stuck in a tent in the rain and since I have service I thought I would pass along some general info on one of my knives. I have nothing to gain from this other than knowing that others will reap the rewards from owning an ESEE blade.
So below is a pic of the ESEE 4. It's a pretty cool blade and built extremely well. I've used it as a screwdriver, hammer, cutting tool, etc. Here are the dimensions:
ESEE-4 SPECS:
Overall Length: 9.0"
Cutting Edge Length: 4.1"
Overall Blade Length: 4.5"
Blade Width: 1.25"
Weight (Knife Only): 8.0 ounces
Drop Point Blade Style
Maximum Thickness: .188"
1095 Carbon Steel, 55 - 57 Rc. (Carbon Steel Model)
440C (Stainless Steel Model)
Removable Handles
Rounded Pommel w/ Lanyard Hole
Ambidextrous Black Kydex Sheath
They're definitely worth looking into of you're a fan of fixed blades.

ESEE makes some quality stuff. I keep an ESEE 4 in my centre console and an ESEE 6 in the glove box. I also have a Fallkniven S1 that I carry when I go fishing.

Been looking for a solid camping/multifunctional knife.
Is this it - http://www.amazon.com/ESEE-6-Plain-Blade-Grey-Micarta/dp/B004YUALZQ/ref=sr_1_1?s=outdoor-recreation&ie=UTF8&qid=1393960310&sr=1-1&keywords=esee-6
Extending the Hijack one more post:
Amazon.com: KA-BAR 1257 Combat Knife - Fixed Style - 5.25" Blade - Serrated Edge - Clip Point - High Carbon Steel: Sports & Outdoors
KA-BAR Kydex Sheath for Short Fighting-Utility Knives - Amazon.com
Been really happy with mine. Use the kydex sheet on my backpack, the leather sheet when carrying on my waist. the high carbon blade works with my swedish steel fire tools.
Not discounting the ESEE, but at half the price, the Ka-Bar suits my needs and budget :fish2:

That's the ESEE 6, which is the longer one. The ESEE 4 (like the one in the pic) is shorter and a bit more versatile.
The ESEE eats a Ka-Bar for breakfast though
The main difference is in the tang - the ESEE has a full tang while the Ka-Bar has a rat tail tang that's easier to break, especially if you use it to baton wood.LOL.. yeah.. but I have a Crovel for that attached to my roof rack :boxing:
okay.. back to the pretty pictures and Texas adventures! :hungry:

I feel like they should at least give him some free Ruffwear products.
