Not so new 1996 SR owner

Hey,

So, I just joined after half year or so of lurking on here; I used to be on 4x4 wire (under the same handle barring the lower case a due to a registration error) back in 2012 when I owned my first Gen 2 (1993 LS) and subsequently sold it due to a career change that required I leave the US for a few years.

I returned in 2014 and bought a 96 SR and haven't really done much other than maintenance and routine stuff to get her road worthy for a few trips I wanted to do, and I have mainly been driving it (when I'm actually home) to the Beach surfing and Mountains in SoCal, I find myself traveling quite a lot for work again so I'm hardly in California.

I recognize a few rigs here from the old 4x4 wire days, but I'm surprised to see so many California license plates, we should really get together and do a tech day and do some wheeling afterward; my rig just turned over 200k this week and I have been getting the smoky exhaust on start/stop up due to the valve stem seals.

Anyhow, more pics and less chat:

Thanks, gramps; your rig is a lesson in why we should always DIY when possible.

Do you have any mod(s) lined up in the future?
