What's new

The real-life confirmed Irates?

Only set of Baja claws I've seen on the island! Remember Ibby's $70,000 ZJ?:laughing:

Yup.
Ibby was quite a character. lol

Ibby, Rosie, myself and a few others were responsible for my son getting tanked at the I4x4 christmas party. Jen was pissed with me when at about 3 in the morning he barfed all over her. :lmao:

First time I met Ibby was on a noob run, he had Cody riding shotgun. Had to hookup a cable on huckleberry hill, and he was shooting Cody with an airsoft gun for not winch bitching fast enough:laughing:
 
I met Apeater when his jeep got fucked by those 4x4fruits in Wichita Falls..."get bent"


Then I met a shitload of you when you came to my place in Oklahoma to camp out, eat BBQ, and shoot guns, TWICE!

Hope everyone is still OK...

some nobody youtube e-celeb made a thread about how spidr hit his jeep
basically everyone in that thread on pirate piled on to the nobody's side
really disappointing, can't blame him for taking his ball and going home one bit

see also; he lost basically everything, the k5-ton ended up at auction, couldn't see his kids
real raw deal

Yeah his throttle stuck and he hit Brady's vehicle. I think it was a chev halfton...maybe it was a jeep. His shop was locked up by the landlord who stole a ton of parts, some locals lost stuff they had stored there. Landlord sold off the k5ton and 8ball and other shit. Some guys got stuff back by showing up with a crane and plucking their shit over the walls of the compound. He's still on the right side of the dirt last I saw him. He's a good shit who I owe a favour or 14 to.

Er, yeah, so although he's not here, I know spidr.
 
I've met one or two at a long past NAXJA event 20 years ago..... they probably don't even remember me :frown:

I could be one of those if it was Moab. Met tons of NAXJA people over the years. Remember some by face, some name, and some by usernames. I’ve forgotten many.
 
What about the guy that owned a business (Named Dallas I think) and had a long build thread and was going nicely until some dude posted up and how they were best friends until Dallas? fucked his wife. That was epic! lol We need one of those guys to spice up the real life drama here. I miss the trainwrecks.
 
Met total newb recently... met 2big bronco before this board. Have a neighbor half a mile down from the old board. I forget the number of people off the old board except paying Lance beer for a name change:homer:

Yep, and I'm still in love with your little s10

Nothing wrong with a 4wd s10 that is almost as short as a Mini Cooper:lmao:

;n241489]that's pretty neat
2" drop block, 2" drop torsion arm, MT Sportsman 255/60R15(27"x10") plus a solid axle to replace the split shaft that left me stranded a time or two.

Oddly optioned: 4.3L, manual, and gov-lock in the rear.

center disconnect bits?
always thought one of those CAD axles would do real good with welded spiders, be a poor man's selectable locker

I had too many issues with CAD. But as you note, no selectable locker for the front which sucks.

It was a fun truck for what it was. It also had the stock ZQ8 rear sway bar installed.

Also used for a big dumb load or two:

The only one I can think of is off the old page. I met Jason Y back when we were in colleges in the same town. I think I bought him alcohol or something.

Otherwise, some guy in Blacksburg, VA. I bought his 4.3 Vortec swap package for a toyota.
 
Jeeze.... l won’t begin to fathom how many brain cells I’ve lost between Apeters and Seeyouonthetrail. 😂
