another new guy

[EODTaco]

Come on Bryan I know your back home! Take a few minutes and post some pics of your truck!

I didn't think everyone would want to see a stock truck, but if you insist...

There'll soon be an OME lift on the way. Can't wait for the UPS guy!

Are you IN South Carolina, or FROM South Carolina, or both?

Are you still on Active Duty? My next command is EODG1 in Coronado.

 

[SAR_Squid79]

Oh yeah - and BTW - WELCOME TO ExPo!


...and I don't know how experienced you are with Off-Road trucks, and lift kits or wrenching, but here is a thread from TTORA where me and a guy put an OME 3" lift on a new Tacoma:

I'm on active duty stationed in South Carolina at Charleston AFB. Are you a tech as well?

Thanks much that'll help a lot. I like to think I'm fairly handy with a wrench but I've never installed a lift. Usually I'll start a project thinking "this should be easy" and then Murphy beats me up. Hopefully that won't be the case this time (you can alway hope, right?)

Glad you found your way over. TacoDoc's site also pointed me in the right direction. I will look forward to some pics of your build progress. Good looking rig~!

No - I missed the bus on that one. My favorite ex girlfriend and a few of my friends are Techs. When I was young and stupid, I thought I was too tough for EOD, and went to BUD/S (twice), but didn't make it. Now I'm too senior to go SEAL/SWCC/EOD/Diver. I'm going to the Mobile Comms Team. I transfer back to San Diego in September. I currently work with Dive Motivators at RTC.

I guess that was a dumb question considering your avatar says rescue swimmer! My powers of observation are lacking...
I could never do the rescue swimmer/diver/SEAL thing. I float like your average rock.

I float like your average rock.

..and you look like one too! LOL

Great to finally see the truck..not just "yeah this looks like mine." Need any help withthe lift just give me a yell and I'll see what I can do.

Welcome to the portal! I like the AF too - they gave me lots of nice airplanes to jump out of!

I was actually TDY at Charleston for about a month when I got back from Haiti in 1995. Nice place! A little too hot and humid for my tastes, though. Also too far from the Rocky Mountains!

Anyway, stick around, I think you'll find this is a great place with lots of good information. Stay safe and post when you can!

Thanks, smart***. But seriously I probably will be PMing you when I finally get the lift...I'm sure I'll make it harder than it has to be. Hope the fam is doing well.

Hello all,
I followed TACODOC's link from CT and I have to say I love the ExPo. Nothing wrong with CT, just that the ExPo is more my speed. TACODOC, I hope you can handle having an Air Force guy on your site -

Welcome aboard!

I'm with you...it's a nice place but I'm ready to head west. There's beautiful country down here but they're not so lenient about letting you go out and explore and camp where you want to.
