I'm new to Blacksburg and VT I just transferred here I have always been into wheeling mostly with jeeps since I got me license. Im 20 years old and my major is business management. Here is a picture of my old xj I never should have sold it but you know how that goes...

it was a 96 rustys 4.5" with 35s 8.25/30 with 4.56s etc.
I just bought a 2000 toyota 4runner about 2 weeks before school and put a toytec 3" with some bfg km2s. Hopefully I will be able to build it up some more. Pics before..

And after lift and tires..

Looking forward to meeting everyone
-Matt

4runner looks good man. About all I'd add if you didn't already have one is a rear e-locker, maybe a set of sliders. Setup like that you could wheel just about everywhere the club goes, don't let the big built rigs in the club fool ya.

I have a '97 4runner on OME suspension with some pizza cutter all-terrains, it's my DD but I get it out in the woods some.

Thanks. Yes it does have to rear e-locker! One of the only reasons I bought it. Hopefully I can get some sliders for it by winter.

Hey Matt,

Glad you decided to join up on the forum. Keep an eye out for more in person events. Hopefully we'll have quite a few in the next few months.

Nice runner man, you are worlds ahead with the yota anyway.

Very clean truck, I'd have a hard time wheeling that! But since it's not mine, I hope to see it out on the trails.

Dang thats a nice runner. Has a sick stance. That xj is so sick I want one so bad

That's a good looking xj, sorry to hear its gone. You should do just fine with the runner though, we have a pretty big yoyo fan base here and they seem to do alright on the trail...

Haha yeah I guess most of the club likes yotas over jeeps.

I wouldn't go so far as to suggest something ridiculous like that...I think they just all like going real slow with their quadruple transfer cases and mighty 4 cylinders..

Well I would take my old xj over my runner any day.

I need dual cases to go fast too

Nice 4runner Matt.
