Where are all the Virginia Explorers??

[Josh]

Well I figured something like that. How come your selling your truck? Are you gonna fix it first or would you sell it as is? How much you want?

 

[dgibson]

i'm fixing it first. just needs another vent tube for the tranny. little odds and ends stuff i am fixing also. I just think it's time for me to get something a little newer and that i can take if i have to travel. 11mpg is not exactly traveling gas mileage is you know what i mean. I want $4K for it but i might come down a little. I just put another transfer case in it plus I still have the other one sitting there. I have done a LOT of mods to this x so it will really is an awesome ride.

The club is going out there to damneck/princess anne area again this weekend. If you want just pm me and i'll give you travis's phone number. He is the president of the club.

[dgibson]

i would love to hit some mud or trails sometime, but i think with everything else my torque convertor has crapped out on me. might just go to uwrench it and get a new tranny and drop in and be finished with it

Virginia Grozet/GWNF run

 

[boominXplorer]

black second gen? Sport on about 33's? That is leetz from on here. I have seen one next to my work (1st gen 4 door dark blue on like 38's with a 9'' and D44). I have been running around alot on my mounty on 35's also. I'm game if anything comes up local

 

[Josh]

Does leetz let his girl drive alot? I mainly see her driving and him on occation. Get on the other thread so we can start brain stormin and spread the word. That first gen might have solid axles but could not tell. That might be dgibsons buddy Carl. I heard he had 2 monsters.

i have one other thing left to fix and then it's out of here. i love offroading, but it cost me too much right now. if it wasn't my daily driver it would be one thing, but right now money is too tight to do it

 

[DominicanX]

Oh **** my girlfriend was driving my drunk a** down the VA beach strip the other night, because I was druck as ****. 14 shots of top shelf tequilla from Red Star will make your girlfriend have to drive. Mine is a black 99 sport on 33" tires. SOA and Sloped body lift. So that was probably my truck you saw.

 

[Josh]

Was that you the other day at the intersection of Dam Neck and General Booth. You(?) were at the light and drove(on Gen Booth) by in a red(Burgundy) explorer with a 6" lift and 33s. Big ugly Hawain guy behind the wheel. Kind of hard to miss. Get subscribed to that other thread to go to GWNF or someplace in Sept if you are interested.

 

[DominicanX]

Probably was me. I work down in Sandbridge. Oh yeah I remember that X. Nice. That was definately me then.

Lets Do Something This Weekend!!!!!!

 

[tenikiwon]

I'm here.... or soon to be

Looks like I'll be moving to the Richmond area from Wisconsin. Currently staying in Richmond, so if anyone is willing to show us around while we are here. Lemm'e know.

Also, Where in the heck do you apartment dwellers work on your vehicles. Unless we pay a fortune in rent there ain't no garages.

In VA until July 21.


Also, as we are thinking about moving what can everyone tell me about safety and emissions testing? Currently we have two '97 X's and an '87 Zuk

us apartmnt people do have it rough luckily i work at a dealership so i can work on it whenever, as far as emissions and saftey it sucks and there is only emmisions in northern va i think, not sure if the va beach arfe has it or not i know western va does not.

 

[tenikiwon]

So in other words I need to get a job at a car shop!


With emission though if my truck has all working sensors and no CEL and stock exhaust should I be fine or is there more to it?

What about older vehicles?

And more importantly, WHERE's THE WHEEL'N!

 

[unclemeat]

I am a native Richmonder. George Washington National Forest is a large area with lots of trails, Few are challenging but it is still a cool place to hunt fish and camp. Crozet for rockcrawling. Outter banks in North Carolinia for sand. Not much around Richmond.

Safety inspection no emmisions. PM me if you have specific questions.

 

[dgibson]

well, offroading is out. traded the x in. if anyone has a first gen with a lift, i have some parts in my shed if anyone needs some

 

[boominXplorer]

got any rear shocks?

 

[dgibson]

no shocks. i have some skyjacker stainless steel extended brake lines still int he package, a dual shock steering stabilizer never even put on the x but it's scratched up because of sitting in the back of the x, and some stereo equipment. my wife wants me to put these things in the trading post but i want to give guys on the website here first dibs

boomin, i think i saw you mounty the other day. we went to carvel and got some ice cream and i was saying something about the mounty and a guy walked out of radio shack i believe and went straight to it.
