heres some bodywork carnage that happened last weekend wheeling near Woodstock and Killington, VT. also broke a rear axleshaft and bent a control arm on the rear suspension, and blew out an upper and lower spring retainer at the same time (shocks too long for spring).

You should really talk to the super market manager about the employees attitude with the carts. I would be upset too if that happened while I was getting groceries.

LOL well it does do grocery duty sometimes as well. i am working on my project rig right now, and that thing will never see a grocery store or a mall. for now this one has to serve double duty, and its not too bad at that. 33" mud terrains, 900RTI on a 23, and a rear locker. yeah i know, tow rig to most of you guys

Tell ya what, that's a nice Rangie with some good character marks! Keep it up!

I see you're having the standard east coast rust problems. I'm so glad I don't live there anymore.

And yeah, a Rangie on 33s can spank a whole lot of rigs that are running around here too. Just get yourself some skidplates before you knock those body panels all the way off!!!

Where exactly where you wheelin'? That area's not too far from me. If you want to hear about local trail runs, check out the Yankee Toys mailing list - www.yankeetoys.org

My old '83 had a big rust hole in the floor that I just covered with a rubber mat. One day on the trail a big tree branch came up through it. I was kinda surprised until I realized what it was :eek:

since when did hard core trials cause rust? I am glad I live in ca where their is no rust. Dcruiser138 had such a rusted tud on his rig that large chunks of metal fell off on his last con trip.

wheeling in the area right around woodstock and around plymouth. there are MILES of unmaintained roads up there, all connected with snowmobile highways and such. some tough wheeler on the east coast scale, lots of streambeds.

thanks RoverAddiction, ive got SafariGard diff gaurds, a pair of RoverTym sliders, and soon a RoverTym rear bumper. hopefully a fuel tank skid too, that things got a few scars on it!
