To this

Hold on, back to the thread......GonOvr, how do you get in?!

I put one foot inside, jump up the other foot and slide in. It's really not that bad. I don't have a rope ladder or step stool. People in the back use the tire.

Dude....im 6'2", 180 and 25 years old, and i dont think i could get my leg up there. I had a Titan with 37's and that was a pull and jump, i couldnt imagine getting into that every day! But, its an amazing machine!! :thumb3:

This is by no means a daily driver that would be ridiculous. Eventually i will drop it down. I just don't want to spend the money right now. I built this thing on a guess. Granted it worked out but i guessed too big. Plus it needs other things like a cage, bumpers, winches, stereo. In due time just had to take a break for a bit to get my funds back up.

You have any picture's of it flexed out by chance?

I thought the same thing until i saw the video of you burning out, turning left then squeak through the construction dividers to the light. I cringed the first time i saw it, i thought you were gonna get squeezed in. Thank God i was wong!!

Definitely not a DD but a "quick" trip to get a 12 pack or some groceries, every other day...for sure! :cheers:

Unfortunately no, I finished the traction bars a week before i headed to SE Asia. I didn't even get a chance to play at all. Now it's in storage about 6000 miles away. Yay me...

That's hella lame. Atleast you will have a ready rig when you get back.

I was thinking maybe a Big Foot paint job would look appropriate haha. I noticed you wearing a Topeka shirt...you from Kansas? I live in KC.

I used to live in Topeka when i was a kid, actually i found that shirt in Portland, OR at Old Navy. I got some friends back there going to KSU and the only time i went back around there was when I picked up my new dodge out in Lee Summit.

Well your kinda close... Im at Camp Stanley (FML) Those were taken at my buddies place (Fountain, CO) Near Ft. Carson. The 4runner isn't in country with me. That would be awesome if Transportation would ship this thing but that will never happen.

Just a crude mockery.

Well my rear axle is out of a Ford, does that make me eligible to sport the sweetest paint job ever? Maybe I should call Bob Chandler and get the OK... then again maybe not.

Hey man, noticed Oregon plates on your rig. Are you from Oregon or were you based here or something? If so, what parts?

Grew up in Rhododendron, and Gresham. I see your from Corvallis, you must be a ducks fan... I have spent many drunkin nights down there in my younger days. My brother lives in Canby. But yea Oregon is my permanent address but i've only been back that way for vacation. Actually I built my 4runner there last summer in clackamus.
