I am plannin on goin up there. I cant wait!

I just built my front driveshaft yesterday so im gonna test her out some today. Im not used to wheelin on rocks and its something im tryin to get into. The whole mud scene has gotten old to me so im wantin to try something new!

I need to find a set of tires for the jambo possibly 37"+ preferably 38's if anyones got any that would be sweet!

[cbabywolf02]

Sweet can't wait to meet and see your ride in person and wheel.

[ToyotaGrowingPains]

Im definately looking forward to goin up there and meeting everyone from all the boards and such! I think it ought to be a good time as long as my rig dont blow up on me or something since it is my DD.

[hecull]

I wouldn't worry if I were you. You're VERY stout for a Toyota. I'd love to have your rig up there!
All the same, if you get to go up to the EC4RJ(East Coast 4 Runner Jamboree,) since this is the first time for you on the rocks, just run with the blue group. Your truck would handle the blacks, but I suggest running with a lower group at least your first time out.
I do hope you get out to the EC4RJ, you'll wheel with a great group at a great place.
Have fun!

I dont mind beatin the piss out of my toyota. The only thing for me to worry about is body damage and thats nothing as long as i dont roll over.
I know its a 3 day event so i will prolly take the first day or two and take things easy and then step it up on the last day.

I have done some minor rock wheeling, but nothing real serious since it is the east coast and big rocks are hard to come by.

I am definately excited.

It's not hard to find the good wheeling spots. Just got to be in the know. Welcome to the club. There is no way out of body damage. Some armor will help keep it to a min.

You'll definetly have a good time, even if it's your first time out. Taking it a little easy is actually a good idea untill you learn how the truck handles.

[ToyotaGrowingPains]

I def cant wait till the 18th!

This past week i have really gotten a chance to wheel the piss out of truck to see how it will hold up. I figure if i screwed up during my sas and if something major is gonna happen it will happen now instead of up in Pa.

The different COG and width is the hardest thing to get used to at this point. Before when i was on 33's i pretty much knew every limit of my truck. Now its like learning how to walk all over again.

This is a welcome to any one who has joined in the past few months and i missed.
