Christmas is always great! It is the bills in January and February that make me say "humbug"!



It looks really nice Eric. You'd just better be careful if you do move to California, they have a lot of 4Runners get stolen it seems.

I don't think $400k shacks in Cali are going to work for us. Either way I am going to Wyotech. Might just have to use california for vacations

going to put some cheapo shocks on, fix some of the rust and maybe Herculine the interior

I am not going to do the swap soon. I need to get an axle, strip and clean, build up with new inners, gears, locker, brakes, Marlin 4" SAS kit, driveshafts, and regear the rear. Oh and don't forget about wheels and tires

It will take some time, but if I can get a SFA and start cleaning it now, then I will get started. This one WILL BE a keeper.

Plus I have another 22re that I will build up too.
