Yeah, some people find a nitch and run with it. My brother writes articles for a paper in the sports column. His job: to go to every college stadium in the u.s. and get paid to write about it. Who's gonna turn that down? Guys like that never work a day in their life. And... where were these jobs...

Very nice dig! Yeah, these books give everything someone needs to get knee deep in trail riding. It gives you GPS coordinates, trail rating from easy to very experienced only and everything in between, from key sites and lookouts to just the history of the area. I would recommend them without...

I know that there are a bunch of these books. I am not sure If they are all from the same company, but the one who does this book does Utah, California, Colorado and Arizona to my knowledge. It's worth a Google.

Hey guys. I spent my 4 days off nitpicking wiring and corrosion from the grill to the tail lights. Some of the wires were exposed so I bought long strands and replaced them the proper way. Takes a while and a bit of sweat. Also I installed the corner markers and replace each bulb on the truck...

Warrantee is always good I don't believe that is too common, it just happened I came across a company there that would do it so I jumped on it. It will be as good as a new truck in my opinion. Keeping in mind the constant state of upgrade I have it in. This week I ordered a new set of...

Hi Willie Nice TRD! And that's quite the acquisition you have. I would never get that lucky.

Good eye, most don't know what those mean, especially since they changed the way they look now. I did ten years in. It helped give me the edge on fixing this truck like no body's bisuness. So far I've done Crown King, Harquahala, and some others west of Phoenix. I plan on doing one when I can...

So I purchased "Guide to Arizona Back Roads & 4-Wheel-Drive Trails 2nd Edition" a few months back. It has a TON of back roads and information about each trail. So far I have gone with a few 4x4 friends to some of the medium and some of the difficult roads. I have yet to take Ol' Red out on a...

I found this after looking up different forums.

Yes. I bought the same model/year 22R carb motor to replace it. In the end I want all components to be original or at the very least a good replacement that wont change its specifications. In this motor I have new cams,springs,arms, bearings. Also, new crank, pistons, rods/caps, main seal...

When I got it, the engine had been repaired by some individuals south of the border. It ran, but it ran like garbage so I took the motor out to rebuild it. Upon this I discovered that three of the pistons didn't have top rings. All sorts of things were wrong. Cracked intake, carb was very nasty...

I just uploaded 9 photos. I will continue to post more as they come. I have to mention: I love this truck. there is nothing better than sweating over something then seeing it working out as planned. after the exterior is complete, then I will dive into the interior. It's pretty much stripped...
