Nice. It was pretty smart of the Rover and Jeep guys to bring you along in case they had problems with the stuck. ;)

Nothing to major butI added a set of color matched fender flares. I think they look much better than the original black ones.

No pics?
Was hoping to meet you at the last Zoe FD ride...

Was hoping to make it but had a test for school that following Monday so didn't make it anywhere that weekend. Mid terms are this week so hopefully sometime very soon I'll be able to go wheeling. You have any planned trips coming up?

Going to harlan for the weekend Friday. That's it for now. Is like to check out big rock at some point. Been doing a lot more camping than wheeling lately. Finally sold my 80 so we have been taking out my wife's jk. Are you on Facebook?

Cool, Harlan's always an awesome trip. What do you plan on buying next? I have a Facebook but haven't logged on in months. Are the pics I posted yesterday working for you?

Pictures look good.
I've got my dodge, wifes unlimited and I picked up a 97 Tj off Craig's list but I'm planning on fixing it up a bit and selling it this spring. After I sell the TJ I don't know what I will end up with...might just build up the wife's jk

I'll have another 80 or a truck like yours... Nothing like a Toyota!
As for the TJ it's an auto all it needs is a tranny rebuild it just started to slip every once in a while coming out of first. It's already 1/2 way set up... Lift, bumpers, sliders, tube fenders, 35s ect..it's a pretty cool rig but I need something family friendly.

Bought an ARE shell to replace the softopper. I still plan on keeping the softopper for now and switching in and out.

Question for you. I have almost the exact same setup as you on my 02 taco DC. Still running stock tires. On the 255's with the stock rims any rubbing in the front on full steer lock? Also where are you seeing the rubbing in the back? Thanks, and you build is looking fantastic btw.

Topper looks very nice!
Thanks. I am liking the hard top more than I expected. I loved my softopper and was very hesitant to make the switch to the hard top but am very happy with the decision so far.

The tires do rub the frame at full lock and they also rubbed in the back with major flexing but nothing a little cutting won't fix. I personally love the 255's and would highly recommend them.
