I will add more pics from the front so I can show my dual battery setup with the amps and speaker and stuff. I will be making some changes back there to accomodate a power inverter, so I'll take lots of pics when I do.

There are also some changes in the works for this as well, which will include blowing some holes in the bumper to add some more back up lights. when the roof rack is added, I will consider a ladder, and at some point storing the hi-lift back there would be nice. I'll also snap some pice of the Trasharoo in action! (Thanks Dave!)

Glad I could be involved in the "new hotness"
Easy and profound upgrades are always fun.

A bit in the way of advice: Do not stop on the way home and pull someone out if a feild and get it all muddy before you work on your truck!

I live, I learn. :victory:

Awesome 4runner man! What kind of roof rack is that?

The roof rack on it right now is a Garvin Wilderness rack. It is stout and functional, but no longer suites my needs. Sometime soon you will see it live on as part of Bones' rig, as it is an ideal fit for a 1st gen Isuzu Trooper as well. I will be adding a full length rack with lots of lights for camping, and an RTT.

No you don't!
It was nice of you to pull him out, though.....

Yeah, thats my bad. I was trying to be a good Samaritan in Mike's truck.... made him turn around to help the guy out.... whoops. Dumb ******** he was, sure enough.

When Mike's attempt at just pulling him backwards with about 10ft of tow strap failed, and got him stuck, I commanded Mike to get out of his own truck for me to extract the truck... which took a bit of persuasion but having been in the same situation before, knew what to do. Being from Louisiana is beneficial sometimes!

By the end of the escapade, I managed to dig holes over 1ft deep. We then winched the car backwards to the front of the Learymobile ruts, then had the guys friend yank him to the left side of picture (you can see the 90* ruts going left) with a 4x4 Xterra. The friend would have certainly gotten stuck as well trying to pull out the car.

Anyways, I felt bad for getting Mike's truck dirty, but we should have either snatched the car out or winched it from the pavement.
Good practice.

bummer for me, but thanks. It looks great! You want to build another? ;-)

I can provide you contact information for the race fabricator that made it. He usually does cages for track cars and such, but takes a break from his Ferraris every now and then to work on my junk. Send me a PM if you are interested.
