Well, since my rear axle housing took a dump on me, I decided to upgrade to a diamond axle housing It ended up being 150.00 more than a new factory axle housing. Not bad!
She's gonna take 4 weeks to build so there's a good chance she won't be ready for the 4 runner jambo cuz I'm swapping the runner over to leafs.
So...I'll probably be driving the taco to the jambo and wheeling greens or lower blues. No sense in tearing up 2 trucks. Can't afford to fix them both.
Anywho... Bling is on the way and I'm not missing the jambo!

They say 4 weeks but it'll be more like 2 months. Let me know when it comes in so I can come steal it and put in the rear of my junk!

Smart ass. Looks like my runner is gonna be down for 1-2 months depending on how long it takes for my axle to come in.

I'm gonna do the rear right and be done with it. Not gonna be cheap, but at least it will be much better than stock and then I can focus on the front end this winter.

Going with a 4-link and medium rate 80-series coils. Moving the gas tank to make room for the links too. We'll see how she turns out. Links/johnny joints are not cheap. I fuckin hate this expensive ass hobby.

Yes his is an expensive hobby. What truck are you going to bring to the EC4J. You just need to SAS your runner since you have that nice new axle.

Just gonna drive the taco and ride greens, lower blues. I can't afford to fix two trucks.
I'd like to hop in with somebody running blacks one day of the jambo

I will be .................. at EC4RJ09.

Ace I heard that the diamind axles are not taking as long to build as before and that it is possible it will get to you in 4 weeks. Are you getting a custom width or stock 58".

I like it here but Kathy really misses her family. There are two options for me in 2009. Get stationed back in the DC area or retire back to Pennsylvania. Either way I will be active in the Mid-Atlantic TTORA again.

I hit 20 this July. the current plan is to either do 22 if I don't get stationed in DC or 24 if I get stationed back in DC.
