Default Got a new rig the other day

Thanks to RxCrawler, I traded him a RTR scorpion and some race compound rock lizards for his toyota. Got big plans for it, custom bumpers, suspension seats and 5 points are 1st on the list. It is my daily driver when the weather isn't good enough to drive my moped.

Nice.

Back when CSR owned that,we went wheeling at Winrock. Did really well. If you ever head over this way,holler at me and we'll hit the woods.

Now,just gotta fix my inner short side.

Looks really cool, but why is the Toyota emblem upside down?

Please correct me if I am wrong, but it appears that in the 2nd and 3rd pictures, there are CV joints at the steering knuckles on the front axle. Anyway, nice truck.

And that's whats in it, 30 spline longfeilds. It also has 4 transfer cases, 6 driveshafts, a 55,000 lbs winch and a built in vibrator. Hey raptor, I just might take you up on that, the EPA has shut down all our local trails, just in time for nice weather.....
