New Here

Postby greenwenie » Mon Aug 26, 2013 7:15 pm

I have lived in tri cities for about 7 years now and just found this site, I have a 70 fj40 and used to wheel quite a lot when I was younger i would like to get my wife and 2 little girs into it also so I am looking for some areas around here that are somewhat easy (the girls get a little newrvous when we go off the road) and close to home, I am in west richland.

Its tricky at first.
JKLANCE your expert advise is needed.

Working on your rig is like a really great date: you start out expecting it to be something simple and straightforward; four hours later you're laying under her, panting and cursing, and things are a lot more complicated than you ever wanted.

Sorry for the slow response... I had assumed my sticky post would help folks get their pics up easier, but didn't think that they might miss it being the first post in the Intro area... My apologies, follow this link to learn how to post pictures...

Building a capable off roader is easy, building a street legal one that you can wheel and then drive daily is the challenge...
