Hey Cory,
I dont suppose you have video of that tank-trap eatting my tail light do you?:rasta: I have those Big O XTs from Spaceghost's 40 on my fj60:D Big tires=Big smile. I fixed my motor mount, so you can have your chain back, but it is kind of dirty:flipoff2: See you guys in the spring.
Rick. (AKA the fj60 guy)

Yup, Rick...
I have video of your tail light pre and post.
You have a tail light and then the back end drops out of sight and when it comes up you DON'T have a light:D :D :D
Dingo says you should ALWAYS use 4whl drv when trying to impress the yuppies with what a cCruzer can do :flipoff2:
I should have gone out and parked next to those girls in the stuck jeep then backed out and run circles around them.
My chance to be an ASS and i passed it up:(
Cory
I will have to check that video out if you send it to Spaceghost. I think my wife thinks I backed into a tree or something:rolleyes:
Tell Dingo I made it up that face in 2High WITHOUT two Big white arses in my truck earlier in the day, of course none of :rainbow: blazers were around at the time.
I dont know if you heard those blazer and jeep guys when we were all sitting there watching the jeepboat. I overheard a couple of them saying about the fj40s "those things are badass" and "those things can go anywhere" and "I am a :rainbow: for driving a jeep" OK, I didnt hear the :rainbow: thing, But I know they were thinking it:D
Of course, they were thinking "What kind of dick puts a lift and tires on a volvo stationwagon" when they looked at my truck I am thinking about putting some wood panels on the sides so it looks like the family truckster:flipoff2:
It looks a little meaner with the 35"s, the rock sliders. It will be much more functional the rear wrap-around bumper that is almost finished and exo-cage.
Tell Spaceghost to drop me a line when he gets the vid that you send him.
Later,
Ricko.

Hey Ricko,
When I get the video we'll have a party, popcorn and cocktails. Then we can dispute the video as a fake or modified, there's no way that actually happened. We can actually record the play by play, for a historical record.
We can invite the wives also, to embarass them when they realize what kinda guys they married. And for moral support we'll have the kids come too, you know, they think we're tons cooler than the other parents at school.
When you comin' to get the spare and your old tires?

Hey Karl,
I went with 38 x 12.50 x15 Swamper TSL's on MRT Beadlocks. Got one day on the trail with them, watching the weather to see what Saturday brings. Might have to load up and go wheelin'.
I may have to lower the rear bumpstops an inch or so, but otherwise they clear the body.
e-mail me direct with your phone number, wanna talk adapter plates.
Happy Holidays
