walking out to the garage: "Daddy, what's wrong with your truck? Is it okay?"

Yeah, it's okay, it's just different.

No, little Johhny it's not differerent, either, it's special.

So, on that note...times are a changin' for me too...

It's kinda painful to do this, but I need something with better gas mileage , like a Yukon or a Tahoe. Kidding, we just need something bigger, so the time has come to sell some of the goodies, since trading it in or selling it (soon) with mods won't be the best financial route to go... So....local only, no shipping. First to respond get dibs.

PM or email me if you're interested in some of this fine equipment.

What about the tires and wheels?

Dang, had to ask, eh? Still debating...Got two sets. I have a decent set of 5 wheels/tires - 32" BFG MTs (3 with about 70%, one w/ about 20% and one with 99% tread) on the stock steelies painted black (on it now).

Also have another set of 4 wheels/tires that are 32x11.50.15 Goodyear AT/S (35%-40% tread) on the 6-spoke Pathfinder Alloys...seen in the "Sam's Offroad" link above.

One will obviously need to go with the truck when it goes (unless you guys have some creative ideas ), so I'll be sure to post what I intend to do and see if anybody wants 'em.

Someone needs to sell an ARB closer to Canada...

The shipping is gonna kill me !!!

I hear ya. When I was looking for mine I saw a few pop up for relatively cheap (*very* well used, but I didn't mind) and every one of 'em was way too far to drive and get.

If you head to Phoenix soon, let me know.

John are you parting out your banner too? I still call dibs on it when you do want to part with it!

I'll trade you a slightly scratched/dented left rear door for yours. Heck, I'll even add another $5 to sweeten the deal. :p

BTW, I want the muds too, but don't see myself going to AZ any time soon.

Forgot about the banner. It's so big, I don't know how I coulda forgot. I suppose that'll go too (I'll put your name on it and give you a shout when the X is gone, ok?) I think I'd only want the $350 I paid for it. J/K - I paid $50 - we can discuss when the time comes.

Huey - yeah, the BFG MTs, I may keep them for my next vehicle - I'll just have to wait and see. I'll pass on the door trade though. Thanks!

You have a deal!
Now be honest, you are selling the X and getting a minivan right? And you're hocking all this stuff so that you can afford the leather seat option and the ceiling mounted dvd movies for the kid option right?

Patrick - you got it.

Ha! No way I could get myself to do the minivan thing.

I even asked the Mrs (just for a reaction) if she wanted a minivan and she said "Uhhh...yeah, you go right ahead, I won't drive it!"

Ever think of getting yourself a Volvo. We just bought one the other night. V70 T5 with the third seat in the back just right for little ones. The good thing is it gets 18 city and 27 highway. The great thing is it has a TURBO. I love this car! Anyways, about some of the parts. I was wondering on how soon you were getting rid of the truck? Because I am from Phoenix but right now I live in San Diego and I am coming home for Easter amd I could bring my sway bars at that time and pick up yours. But if you are trying to get rid of it sooner no worries.

Yeah, the volvos are pretty sweet, we've actually looked at them too.

I'm not sure how soon I'll sell the X, but I actually found a spare set of torsion bars (that is what you meant, right?). So I could just swap them out before selling and hold the good sway-a-way ones until you got here.

I'm off to work, but will check in later this evening.

That's right everybody! - Johnnyx got a job!

Cool, so the extra set would still be $100? I really need a set because I put Calmini UCA's and cranked my stock torsion bars to the max and the truck rides like shit. The new Bilsteins should help too though. So I will buy the torsion bars for sure, if you can hold off until Easter.

Yeah, no rush. $100 even and you take my tbars. (unless of course you really wanna paint yours all pretty and stick them in my yard. )

Just give me a heads-up before you head to town and we can plan to meet, you can come by, or I can drop them off - whatever works is good.

It's funny - after I removed the bumper and winch the front end went up at least 3/4".

JohnnyX - I saw you today on Hayden. Your truck just doesn't look the same without all the stuff. Made me sad

Did you rip that horrible Oregon sticker off the back yet? I've got a nice 'A' you can replace it with...

Mark - Go Cats!

Yeah, it looks pretty plain...
and oh, you mean the sticker that matches this valueable frame?
Yeah, that big sticker is gone too... Go Ducks!


You know you want my ARB.

Edit: nothing left but the shirt on my back (and a nearly naked Xterra ).

I'll trade you exhausts and let you keep mine at no additional cost to you, but I'll need to know before GONE.

Assuming you don't have a stock one on there - I forget, what do you have on that bad boy?!

Of course it's stock, never make assumptions. It makes an ass of you and, uh, umption.
No really, it's the only thing I haven't fixed yet, other than gears... If you want stock I'll oblige. If not no biggie..

I would only assume up until I "signed on the dotted line."

Actually, the one I have on now is good. I just thought I'd offer someone else a chance at a different one for cheap and 20-30 minutes of wrenching. Otherwise, I'll leave it on and advertise it as having a "100+ hp add-on."

$35.00 and I'll do the wrenching

Sure, that works. We can both do the wrenching. You still got my BFH from "lift day"? (not that we'll need it)
