Gracias my fellow glacier white owner. Your user name makes me hungry --I happen to be a walking nacho pit!
Thanks Rip. You, Nick and Rick's rigs have been my biggest inspirations. Feel like I'm just getting started --and we will definitely have to make some turns together this season. Did you guys get to ride any of that soft stuff yesterday/today?

Thanks dude! We'll have to wheel sometime too.
No I was driving back to Abq during the thick of the storm. All we got to ride on was the fake stuff
Had to go back for finals..I may go up thursday as its employee ride day before the resort opens. but I will for sure be up there Saturday through the end of January.

^^ you got it man. bummer you had to miss a nice pow day for finals, but hopefully you'll have a nice long season to make up for it!!
my pass gets me a few free days in tsv, but now that I know an instructor at Angel Fire maybe we can work a deal for a hookup on a ticket up there sometime this winter

Man I wish we got some snow down here in cloudcroft, all we got was about an inch or two. not even worth playing in. I cant wait for some real snow to hit! So I can do these again! Taco donuts - YouTube
Ride is great. lift, not much of any
going to add a spacer lift next I think, and figure out what I want to do for the front. I also bent my lower control arms on a rock, so I need to fix those, it turns out that is what is causing my sway issues.

thats true. but idk if you saw Silo got 37s on his green dragon
also, i am going to buy tomtom's tires because he is bumping up to 285/75/16's. hes giving me a crazy deal, x5 hardly used 265/75/16 BFG KM2's for $400!! and they are still pretty new, they still have the little tire pubes that the new tires have. still not sure if i am going to mount them right away or run my tires down to pretty low tread and switch them out
i wanted to bump up to the 285's also but i couldnt pass up that crazy deal. thats $80 per tire

yea i hope he starts it soon. and idk i will porobably put them on within the next 2 months and see how i like them and decide whether i want to run them in moab or sell them and get 285's
saw this guy on southbound Coors at like 3:15, had a tube front bumper with sharks teeth painted on it like a wwII fighter.
thats cool!

Hey guys just want to let you know about a really good shop here in Corrales, its called Micah's Garage.
Micah the owner is a super cool dude, he specializes in toyotas. He was a big resource for advice when I was doing my Elocker retrofit. Today I went by to see if he had an extra relay I was looking for. He had a big pile of wiring harnesses out of a 3rd gen and just gave one of the relays to me. He has a little cafe coffee shop there too so I bought a giant coffee from him.
He does great work and knows 3rd gens as good as any of us do if not better.
This is his 3rd gen:
These all belong to him, he buys and sells 3rd gens on the side. He has 2 more I didnt take a picture of.
This is one of the ones he is working on right now, its a supercharged '02 with a blown transfer case!
