i am wheeling it this weekend, with the stock tires. i just don't have enough time to get the wheels done. i think i will just run dual in the f&r for that ultra wide look. i have to pull the duals off to get it to fit on the trailer.

yea it will be tackey to say the least, but i will be on the trail. mike

take a pic with the duals, looks funky

i wont put the duals on till i pull it off the trailer. and they are some heavy bastards. but i will post some pixs after this weekend. mike

Let us know how ya like em. It looks weird with those wheels, almost like a photo chop!! Seems like ya did it quick, did you flip the hubs and remove the drums? what did you do suspension wise? brakes and what not?

the hubs are stock out in front, in on the rear. i removed the drums fom the front and the rear, i have one disk in the rear. i just don't have enough time to do the other in the front. i will do that next week or so. it stops plenty good, i will just like alittle more insurance. i am running the stock springs, and i have to build a traction bar for the rear. i will do that tonight. i had to lower the front bump stops to keep it out of the oil pan. i need to beef the springs up some more but that wont happen till after the weekend. and get some bump stops in the rear to keep it out of the tank. mike

Nice tires in the bed...hope ya like em..:D

Sweet!!

See you Saturday!

welcome to the club gunracer, you're gonna love not breakin shit...

what did you do for lockers?? Did you see the steering vs. locker thread? Wolfgang is gonna make vacuum lockers for sure, so I am welding my shit up as a temp deal, until those come out...

-got rockwells??

detroit in the front, and it ratchects like a champ, i use 2wd low range most of the time so the steering is easy. but i am going to add ram assisit, for the swampers. welded rear.
danial, i don't know who's ass i need to kick on that pix. hayrakers for making it or your for the rebrodcast
i just got the drive shaft hooked up and the longer shackles in the front. so i still have the shock mounts and the rear bump stops to do tonight. and the torque bar.
and danial the steering arm looks so getto fab, i am embarrased to take a pix of it. but i am pretty sure it will work like a champ. if it brakes off, i will make a better one.

Not going to be breaking anymore birfs up there in clayton in the middle of the night are ya now. Or do you still go there? I met you up there about a year ago. Some of your friends slept under my truck while I changed a birfield. I have been a few times since and never see you anymore. Did you start going to Freilings place or what?

I am starting my own rockwell project so it will be awhile before I go back out. That thing looks good man, hope to see you up there one of these days, your group is a riot.

Brad

that's pretty cool but i saw the guy who owns that thing once and he is :rainbow: :flipoff2:

bad booger,

yeah i was one of the ones sleeping. in fact i was only there because i was pulling your ass out all the way from "snake pit". yeah i'm the one with the orange and black lengthened cj5. you looked at my licence plate so long that night i figure you'll recognize my name :D

Hey Mike, hurry up and get those 42s on there!

BTW, were the 42s ok??

Well you guys did a heck of a job pulling me up those hills. Much appreciated since it was your fault we were all the way down there.:p

now I remember that plate

i was folowing the leader just like you guys. heck i was stopped winching people up the guardian then skeetshooter busted his p/s line. the group you were in that went on down to snake pit stayed down there so long that i came looking for you guys. well i found you guys and then i got to play tow truck the rest of the night. :flipoff2: i'm not complaining. i had fun and man did the side of that hill sleep good :D

So glad I slept in that night....

I like the slammed Cruiser Mike....

the 42s are fine TTURokToy, but i might trade them off for some 16.5 rim size. i just want to know which bunch of drunks decided to follow me. that was one long ass night. and i drive all the way back from wildwood to find high 5, and there him and shit neck were sleeping like babys under your toy. i still cant belive how many rigs kept showing up. we started with about 7 and by the time i got to snake pit, it looked like a highway behind me. mike

Yep that was a long night, and maybe the only time my wife has ever been really pissed off at me, her first camping trip and I left her in camp till about 3:30am.


Mike, I dig the cruiser, kind of has that psychobilly redneck farm equipment look that I like so well:flipoff2:



BTW, I did not chop that picture, thats the way gunracer drives it around when hangin with his homies.

just get your shit together ronnie, mine will be rollin tonight.

Gears are set up in both ends, driveshafts hooked up, just need to bleed brakes, relocate forward mount on front springs, fill the diffs with gear oil, finish the steering and put the hood back on. skeetshooter is building my hi steer arm so I think we may have it whooped.
