The name's Keith, Kman1022 from Trailvoy. I'm 32 yrs old and very much still a kid at heart. Just noticed the link on gordinho80's page and thought I'd come check it out. It's nice to see more of a 4wd community here with more info. Can't wait to learn more about everything.

So far all I've done to my TB is this...
I had the 2.5" smaxx front kit and 1" rear kit. But recently swapped them out for the MarkMC front and rear kit. I have his body lift sitting in my basement for over a month now but haven't gotten the time to install it yet, hopefully soon. Other than that all I've done is throw some BFgoody Mud terrain's on the stock 16's and I made the mesh grille. Oh yeah and I added the window and hood ventshades.

I hate to even ask without out doing some research first but...anyone know if there will be more stickers made up anytime soon? I love the design, would love it more if it was even bigger than the 12" version.

Thanks guys, hope to see some familiar names around!

Keith

Hiya, and WELCOME!

Hope I'm a familiar (and not annoying) name.

We have the BEST smilies here, and no mall rats. :safari:

Welcome... May I ask... why the switch from SMAXX to MarkMC? Figure they are about the same thing...

For a few reasons...
1. From what I was told, Mark was screwed out of money from Smaxx. Although I don't know the details of the situation, I didn't feel like supporting a company like that.
2. At first Mark was going to send me the first off the assembly line body lift kit and he asked me to take pics for him for his instruction pages but he didn't want the Smaxx product in his pics so he sent me his susp. kit to swap out. Plans changed due to some technical difficulties and me not living close enough to him to do a dry run of everything.
3. Lastly there is a slight height different between the two products from what I noticed. Not much but a little.

Larry was a very nice and very helpful guy but...
