just wanted to know how many of you use your fullsize trucks on the rocks? Pics would be nice http://www.sierrarockcrawlers.com/data/srcforumuploads/dan2.jpg

Go here (http://www.alaskaoffroad.com/captain_cook_02.htm) to see my 76 Chevy on some rocks.

I only see 1 rock in that pic. :D

Why would anyone wheel a full size in the rocks anyway?

Cause you can get the whole family in the K5 a little more comfortably than a yota.

You will find plenty of fullsizes on the rocks with these links.

Recent CK5 moab meet (http://www.rockmodified.com/events/blazerbash/bash.htm) Make sure you look at the navigation. There are multiple galleries and multiple pages in each gallery...

More fullsize pics in multiple galleries. (http://www.rockmodified.com/fsr/fsr2.htm)

Yeah, but if you take a K5 through the rocks, it ends up looking like this POS:

Cause they're stoopit? :D




Hey...do curbs count? I've got an awsome flex shot on a 3" curb! :flipoff2:

Your just full of it today aren't you Laura? :D

Hey pcorssmit what do you drive on the rocks???

That's his K5 in the pic he posted...

Hey Pete,

What are the specs on your K5? What wheel/tire are you running? Do you have more pics online?

Well, I don't have a family, but I will admit that it doesn't get much better than cruising down the trail with 3 blondes in the rear view mirror. :D

Here's a more recent pic:http://www.colorado4x4.org/uploads/fullsizeuh.GIF

The first pic is actually from the 4x video extreme Moab '01 video.
The video ends with me sledgehammering the door jambs to return the doors to proper operation.

Pete

I cant link the pics ,but go to yahoo and search for san juan crawlers then go down to trail pics.. I have the black chevy,the pics are from the granite slabs at the con.. and some are from hollister hills:) some times the site goes down ,so just wait our try it again


Dents are good ,there just more clearance for the next rock

built mine to run rocks. Get asked all the time "hows it do in the mud?!" standard response "I dun know". any way enjoy. Sorry I'm not savvy enough to post my own pics but here are someMoab (http://www.extreme4wheelin.com/images/moab_2002/pictures.htm)
more pics (http://www.extreme4wheelin.com/photo.htm)

I Have been wheeling fullsize Chevys for years.Started in mud in Mich.with a truck cab on a Blazer frame.Then moved to CO.Got into the rocks.Wheeled a Sub for a few years on easier trails did fine except for tight turns.Built a '73 Blazer been wheeling that for the past 4 years.Has worked great.Even on trails like 21 road and a few short but narly trails here.But the one thing I have hated is the width of the body.My body is dented everywhere now and the frame is cracked and bent.So it is now being stripped in order to build My CJ-5.Everything is going from the Blazer to the Jeep.Going to miss the room but am thinking of strecthing the body a little.Maybee CJ-6 length.Anyway if your plan on hitting the rocks you will have body damage.Blazin:D

Yeah, but it rained a bit earlier that day, so there were a few water spots on it. :D

Oh yeah, welcome, Newbie. :D Glad to see you here, haven't talked to you for a while.

Pete

Oh yeah, welcome, Newbie. :D Glad to see you here, haven't talked to you for a while.

Thanks Pete...

Been busy and finally re-registered here after losing my original password :mad:

Finally picked up a D60 front for my Jimmy and a matching 14 bolt rear. 4.56's and rear Detroit. Front is open til I rob the 7-11 a couple more times...:D

Wheeled anywhere good lately?

welcome newbie :flipoff2:

Just a few curbs at the mall. :D

Haven't been out too much lately (wheeling, anyway), but we are going down to the Avalanche Rance at the end of the month. Should be fun.

Being a newbie sucks...:flipoff2: Without newbies you guys would have nobody to pick on though.:beer:

Rene:smokin:

All of you people have some cool rigs. Those wheelin' pics kick ass. I guess I'm just like some of you people. I prefer to wheel a fullsize rig than a Jeep or Toyota. Don't get me wrong, though, some of these Jeeps and Toyotas on the trails are cool, too. They're just not my thing. Anyway, keep those pics comin', they all kick ass!

I don't have many pics, cuz I'm usually busy driving. :flipoff2:

Here are a couple that I have. You don't get much more full sized than a suburban!

:D

I've had it on a few 4.5+ trails...

:flipoff2:

Why does the title says "On The Rocks"...

http://www.echobit.com/featured/borregok5/images/boulder-flex.jpg

... Because a full size can't fit between or around them!

Fullsizes suck! get a heep or yota if you really wanna wheel. Oh yeah, and :flipoff2: ya newbie bastid (Rene)

I was thinking of a Kia sportage...:eek: or a Liberty:rainbow:

Or maybe a 2wd Dodge pick-up.:flipoff2:

Sell any more of your junk yet?

Rene

got 2 sets sold, waiting on the cash. 2 to go. We'll see.

And hey, I love my dodge 2wd. It pulls like a mofo!

The Dodge is cool...even if it's 2WD.:)

I'm sure those doors will sell quickly, they look real good! Hell if I could afford a set I get them!

Rene
