[QUOTE="64FJ40, post: 1056686, member: 16057"] I grew up hunting and fishing with my dad and grandpa in lots of places that required 4wd. That was all in the 71 Chevy my grandpa bought new (and I now finally own). I think that started the addiction. I bought the FJ40 bone stock in 1997 with insurance claim money, and I was still in school and newly married, so had basically no money to do anything else with it. I drove it for a year or so, experimenting in any muddy spots I found (522 @ Echo Lake Road, Pipeline off 51st just above Lowell-Larimer). I think my first [U]real[/U] wheeling trip was with a bunch of 4x4nw people on highrider in 98 or 99. I still really miss that trail. My stock 40 on 31" BFG mall-terrains walked right up the wall after watching a locked YJ on 33s fail and get strapped up. At the time, I thought that was about as hardcore as wheeling could get. And I loved it. :cool: [/QUOTE]
