Nice. I went on the powerlines. For the first time but i didnt know how illegal it was lol. One guy told me it could be a 300 dollar fine and some other kinda drunk guy. Lol said i could get arrested.

Well, until today is *was* mine.
Now the insurance company is gonna own it, and I'll be looking for a new truck.
:juggle:
That picture is half-way through the recovery. Initially it was 100% submerged, and had even rolled off the the end of the boat ramp which has about a 2 foot drop. I did some free-diving to get my tow strap out, tied it to the frame, got it hooked up to the "duck", and then more free diving to put it in
neutral.
The Duck pulled it as far as the photo before the strap broke.
I'm gonna miss my 4Runner. Can't afford a new one (5th gen).
Might try for another 4th Gen... we'll see.

It's an announcement that if I have the problem go see my dealer because it's covered. First one I've seen. I don't have the issue though.

yeah they don't like you wandering off the trails too much haha. but I've never seen a ranger or any DEEP patrols in there so you were probably safe to do it. those power line trails are well traveled

Nice good to hear. Lol. I was using my gps for the trails. But i didnt wonder off to much since i didnt want to get lost or get stuck.

Spent a couple of hours under my '04 cleaning up rust today. Bought a new Needle Scaler to do the work for me. First time using one and I have to say that they are pretty slick. Got most of the frame and suspension done up front. Really sad how bad a one owner 4Runner can get underneath.
Tomorrow I should be able to finish up with the needle scaler and then I get to pressure wash it to remove the rest of the dust and dirt. After that dries I will apply the Rust Reformer and then paint.

Added more parts to the pile. Thanks [MENTION=87036]YotaDan[/MENTION] for the quick delivery. Wheelers is awesome to work with and I actually emailed them to find out if it was going to make it this weekend, Dan got back to me right quick and ensured it was good to go.
I think I have everything I need to comfortably lift the truck and ensure handling as a DD with a correct alignment.
Camburg ball joint UCAs
885 Front
Superflex 2" in the rear
5100s all the way around
extended sway bar links for the rear, beefed up replacements for the front
extended bump stops
Can't wait to get started. Tires are going on Monday, and then I'll either start the lift next weekend, or labor day weekend. Thought I was going to have time this weekend, but last minute plans destroyed my Saturday or else I'd be tearing it apart right now.

Washer just needs to be cleaned, otherwise it's good. Look back a few pages where I posted the stack of tires. The garage is trashed right now. I was in the middle of a custody battle when I got in a motorcycle accident that broke some bones and made me immobile for awhile, and that combined with lawyer's fees forced me to move back to my mom's house for a bit back in January. 80% of my apartment is stuffed into the garage right now.
