I've been meaning to tell Lloyd that it only took 6yrs before I needed to reseal my ARB compressor. Now ARB has a new model that should be up to his impossible standards. What about these memories?: ![[Linked Image]](http://home.earthlink.net/~iamjackshead10/Sparkems020104%20-%20005a.jpg) Bourge ![[Linked Image]](http://photos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs013.snc1/2532_68350713967_766838967_2302764_5142750_n.jpg) DougH ![[Linked Image]](http://home.earthlink.net/~iamjackshead10/transalper.jpg) Transalper ![[Linked Image]](http://home.earthlink.net/~iamjackshead10/jeeponstick.jpg) SeerAtlas (best picture available to date) <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> ![[Linked Image]](http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs013.snc1/2532_68350718967_766838967_2302765_6861602_n.jpg) Mr. Guy, aka ELEPHANT_SOAP_PHONO ![[Linked Image]](http://home.earthlink.net/~iamjackshead10/LSU.gif) BWAHAHAHAHA!

I miss those guys...Seer, Lloyd, BigBlue, Eric, Selimyar. I never understood people getting so upset over stuff on a message forum. I enjoy read others' opinions - even those that are the polar opposite of mine. I was fortunate to get to wheel with Joe & McV, and even Ray once down at Tellico <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />. He did hammer that truck on the trail. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I've TOTALLY disagreed with some people, but can't think of anyone I wouldn't have wheeled with. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> I hope none of you guys become one of the "whatever happened to..." guys anytime soon. Even if the Wire lives on fore the next 100 years, eventually all of us will be gone. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Yeah, honestly it was probably reading some stories on 4x4wire back in '00 that prompted me to buy the Raider. Lurked for two years before registering.

I read the vmag forums, then read this forum awhile before I joined.
I just want to tell you both good luck, and we're all counting on you.

I found a pile of 2dr montero parts behind a little garbage car lot and dragged it home. A couple searches on the net, and found this place. Since then, I've been here long enough to build the truck, forget everything, and now have to re-learn everything as maintenance rears it's ugly head. I've met many great people here, among them guys like Don and Big Blue hopefully will be friends for life <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
