First trip out with the cruiser and the tires don't touch the body or frame at all. Does this mean I need to swap to 42s like Nolen did?:D

Anyway I'm quite happy with the way the rig is setup. It worked really well on it's first trip out at the Island Rock Crawl in BC last weekend. It took a little while to learn how to turn with 3lbs of pressure in the tires and a front locker :) My front wheel spacers were on the porch when I got back on monday so now my frontend will be 59" WTW...this should help a little with the stability

Here is a little info on the rig:
96.5" wheelbase
waggoneer 7 leaf springs (SOA of course)
58.5" wide rear end
56.5" frontend
2" body lift
TJ flares in the rear

Here's a link to a pic of it before it left the garage :rolleyes:

Wish I had pics of it from last weekend but the camera was barely working then quit working all together :(

bigger tyres? YES!!!
:D

PICS YESSS :D

:smokin:

I'd like to go wheeling with you Nolen...then I could see if I need bigger tires. I'm guessing that the body lift on mine is what makes it so tall (the 7 leaf waggies help alot also:D )

I'm gonna go to Moab and a few other places next spring so maybe we'll setup a trip or two.

As for pics, BJon roids, hopefully someone took some pics of the cruiser at Island Rock Crawl last weekend:(

Next summer Mace and I are going to meet in Colorado at Montrose for the "Die Trying" and other trails in the area.

We will start a list later and maybe you can come and meet us.

Is Island Rock Crawl that deal in Hawaii?

MORE PICTURES!

I'm thinking we need to go wheeling in the next few weeks so I can give you my quasi professional opinion over a couple of beers bro. :D is Sean's stuff rolling yet?

Nolen,
As for the trips...sounds good, keep everybody posted when the time comes next spring.
