    1997 Toyota RegCab 4x4 5-speed

    I spoke to my friend tonight, and he said he struck a deal with somebody. They're giving him a deposit now, and he'll actually transfer ownership near the end of February. FYI

    Spotted

    A couple days ago, I spotted the white 2dr JK with 'POLAR BEAR' decals on the hood. I saw this guy when we were running the Snakes on New Year's Day, though I've never met him or spoken to him. Anybody know who it is?

    General Tech Question of the day?????

    Now that Utah has essentially mandated* oxygenated fuel year-round, there is no such thing as "winter gas" any more. Something else is the culprit. *: there are now only about a dozen stations throughout the state that offer pure gasoline. You can see them here.

    Sure, you say that now.... My earlier offer still stands: PM me the last 8 of the VIN (as well as the approximate odo) and I'll print out & fax/email your build sheet to you.

    QuadraDrive Vari-Lok diff into TJ (Dana30): anyone done it?

    It did all go together exactly as planned. It seemed to work okay, though the hardest trail that Jeep ever saw was Constrictor. I ended up selling that Jeep in the summer of 2006.

    There's a new daddy in town, a discipline daddy

    Glad you're here. (We have cookies!) I doubt there is anyone here who doesn't feel the same way about their own rig.

    Trip Report Delta Utah Hells Trails VIDEO

    As I'm certain you guessed, I am wondering if I should attempt it in my TJ. I have run HTT twice, completely under my own power save for the outrageous waterfall at the end--I'd rather not try throttling up that on my front Dana30 that has to get me back home when I'm done.

    How do Delta's extreme trails compare to Hanging Tree Trail in difficulty?

    Jeep Wrangler Intake options?

    I wish I had a spare intake setup for you, as the cold air kits generally offer no horsepower improvement over the stock setup on a 4.0L TJ.

    Other Region the Rubicon Trail in 2013--when are we going?

    That's not it at all. My wife will no longer go Jeeping with me, because she thinks every trip I take her on will result in this: This makes her rather uncomfortable for some reason.

    Other Region the Rubicon Trail in 2013--when are we going?

    Found it, thanks. (I've been a sporadic lurker at Pirate since January 2006, though I've yet to post there.)

    Other Region the Rubicon Trail in 2013--when are we going?

    This reminds me: isn't there an "official" (?) calendar somewhere for the Rubicon? I think I remember looking at it last summer, though I cannot recall where I saw it.

    Other Region the Rubicon Trail in 2013--when are we going?

    Many of you know about my Jeep's failure to make it all the way to the Rubicon Trail last September. You also know this only strengthened my resolve to make it all the way there in 2013. I've heard two different RMEers mention they were planning a Rubicon trip for 2013 (albeit at different...

    1997 Toyota RegCab 4x4 5-speed

    An elderly gentleman in my neighborhood is preparing to sell his truck. When he first mentioned this a couple of months ago, I eagerly told him I might know somebody who would want to buy it (full disclosure: I was thinking specifically of sixstringsteve). Yesterday he told me the time is...
