Here is the real EJS LR pict thread. Post them if you got them. I only have picts of FrankenRover, Serious One, and the Bling 147 cuz that is the only trucks that didn't puss out and actually showed up.

Here you go:

Tow rig in Albuquerque -

The ultimate poseurs in the 147.

Interesting that KC was wearing his Moab camo suit. If you squint, you can barely see him.

Billster

Serious One on the V-crack on Poison Spider Mesa. Check out the bling 35 psi in those Swampers. Really hugs the rocks man.

Billster

The FrankenRover (driven by KC), at about 4psi. Really, really sticky on the rocks, but very tippy in off camber situations.

Billster

S1 on the launch pad. Crawled very nicely to the top with nary a tire chirp.

Billster

S1 catching some air. It was much more impressive real time while he humped the rocks.

Billster

Some nice scenery with Frank.

Billster

Obligatory Golden Crack shot (backwards). Really aired down (prolly around 2 psi at this point - had a slight leak.

Billster

Frank on the Golden Steps.

Billster

Serious One about to do some micro donuts.

Billster

Donut heaven.

Billster

Or some more of the Moab Camo action.

Finishing the dirt sandwich.

Billster

FrankenRover spanking Potato Salad Hill at night (2nd gear low range, crawler low).

Billster

Flexy S1 shot.

Billster

Flexy FrankenRover shot.

Billster

Mike eating some roadkill on Pritchett Canyon.

Billster

Seriously Flexy Serious One.

Billster

Poseur Frank shot.

Billster

Super Secret Serious One Sano muffler mods. He was able to achieve an amazing 1cm squared cross sectional area with this mod.

Billster

Frank getting a little offcamber on his own line for RockerKnocker.

Billster

Mike "Nixon" Slade in the drivers seat.

Billster

Serious One in recovery mode, getting the Frank up the ledges after the Rock Pile Carnage. Note the synthetic winch rope (much to Mike's chagrin). Thanks buddy for the pull.

Billster

Carnage? What carnage?

Nice pics BTW...wish I coulda been there.

Looks like you guys had fun. Thanks for sharing.

inquiring minds need to know!!!

Sweet shots Billster. Let me see what I can do to post some pics tomorrow before I have to head back to Moab on Thursday (sigh...). :flipoff2:

Oh and it's a 145, not a 147.

And one more thing...4 psi is 31 psi too few! :flipoff2:

Yeah we had a blast. Would have been nice to hook up with SG Greg for the miracle waterfall climb.

And I can now wholeheartedly endorse synthetic winch rope on Warn winches....as long as it's the Warn synthetic winch rope! :flipoff2:

It's proprietary, has some super secret stuff in it, and will work with *any* Warn winch (other makes too I'm sure).

So...I'm gonna have to hit 'em up for a 'sample' to photograph. ;)

Looks like Merv is back!!! :laughing: :laughing:


Bill, Awesome Pics! Sounds like the FrankenRover performed well. Wish I could have been there to see it in action. Sounds like there are still some drivetrain issues to sort out? I smell Salisbury!!!

Mike, looks like you have the Serious One sorted out pretty well at this point. Maybe a new exhaust though? Have a great trip back to Moab. I'm sure it's just torture for you to have to go back there again and again.. :flipoff2:

I'm definitely looking foreward to more pictures.

crewcab 145: RTI = 72

KC to the rescue!

GREAT pictures guys! I am hoping to be accepted to ANY University for my PhD next year in the US to set-up a Rover and wheel it hard and nice for 4 years!

Several questions:
1. Is the "serious one" for sale...:D
2. 72 RTI is not THAT bad :rolleyes:
3. are those 36" or 38" SXs on the D-90 Ute?

GREAT pics! GREAT!
