What's the purpose of this page?
Highlight modifications of my first 4x4 and trips I have taken with
it. This truck has been sold and replaced by a 1982 Toyota 4x4 so there
will be no more additions to this page.
Why Rockalot?
To keep a long story short... it was my professional name as a Disc
Jockey. I had the license plate "rokalot" on the van that
hauled my equipment and Rockalot is my screen name on the Internet.
Continuing with the tradition I now have 
on my truck.
Support My Cause!
I personally created this page and create web sites for a living. If
you like this page or others I have done and would like your own then
don't hesitate to contact me. The cost of creating your site will go
into my rig and you will be credited with the specific upgrade! Now
that's a GREAT cause right? 
Latest News!
4/06/02: Packnrat & I installed Superlift upper A-arms and
heavy duty T-bars.
I cranked the T-bars all the way up and man did my truck get taller!
Superlift promises 1.5-3" of lift with their A-arms and the stock
T-bars so I at least got 3" with the HD T-bars.
4/13/02: Installed a pair of Rancho 5000s and Superlift 3"
shackles on the rear to level the rig out.
5/25/02: Well I think its time to go over the top! After this
weekends trip, looking at Weedwacker and Uncle Jim's Toyota's, I'm now
shopping for a shop to do a straight axle conversion for my truck!
TRIP #1: My first official

This was a safety clinic, half in class and half on trail. Clinic was
ran by The Capitol City Mountain Goats at their club house next to Prairie
