Some pics of my 40 actually in the dirt.:) - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

468LC · 12-21-2002, 08:57 AM

Here is a few pics for you guys with my cruiser acutally in the dirt instead of sissy street mode.

LOL I have this urge to buy some dirt tires for her again but the ones I want cause garage complications.

This one is high in the cascade mountains. 36" TSL SXs with SUA lift.

This is Evenscreek running my 35 16.50 Boggers with my first SOA lift.

A little flex shot with revised SOA lift at camp on the Little Naches river.

Another

Here is a water hole in camp.

Enjoy.

Great pics. Thankyou for sharing them.

468LC · 12-21-2002, 10:35 AM

Thanks Live Wire. I know quite a few of you guys have enquired about pics of my cruiser but I have had but a couple uploaded anywhere.

I catch a lot of flak over my street looks in this pic. I have to show people all the damage so they believe this thing has had a used life. Bent frame, Bent,cracked and warped tub, Front fiber fenders all splinters now.

I think I may look into some radial Super Swampers after tax time.
I really want the 37" ssr but I dont think she will fit in the garage.

Wow after that last picture I can see why they teased you for owning a street truck...but you redeemed yourself with the first few picts...cool!

orangefj45 · 12-21-2002, 09:00 PM

that is a really clean rig!

Reddog · 12-21-2002, 09:44 PM

That's a nice rig !

Somehow I envisioned you driving a Mustang muscle car

Rich Scholten · 12-21-2002, 10:10 PM

Nice rig! The soft top looks better than most
I've seen. Who makes it?

wngrog · 12-22-2002, 06:38 AM

I love the looks of your "Street Cruiser" it looks bad ass, screw the "Dirt Tires" and drive the hell out of that thing.

Nice rig!

Nolen are you toying with my emotions.

I have always been somewhat embarrassed about the way my cruiser looks now. It needs to be back in the dirt where it belongs.
I'm not kidding when I say this thing is hammered. I would have no qualms about taking my sawzall to the thing and moving the axles even further away for some bigger tires.

Most people are suprised when I say that I drive this thing almost 80 miles a day two or three days a week.

looks like a old kayline top i hear someone bought out the rights to there tops and are still makin them thats a great top,the top-o-line one ,cost a arm and a leg

but worth every penny

468LC · 12-22-2002, 06:58 AM

Rich the top is made by Specialty Top Company. Formerly Kayline. It is a very nice top that uses a track type of system to hold it on. Very few snaps. I liked the top just because I could get it with tinted windows. It fits really well but they aren't kidding when they say it should be over 70* to put it on. More like 100* and it will fight you all the way.

kling-on yes it was expensive and I almost regret it now. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 900.00 with doors.

wngrog · 12-22-2002, 07:01 AM

So I guess it is a 15 foot truck, huh?

(looks damn good from 15', just don't get closer

)

Anyway, uderstand the hammered thing, if it is...cut it and wheel it, if not, keep it pretty and drive it...I like the way it looks all shinny

468LC · 12-22-2002, 09:42 AM

I know most of you guys don't play in the mud much but you almost have to here in Wa.

Here is a crappy pic of some concrete mud at evenscreek.

Donald Butcher · 12-22-2002, 02:57 PM

your cruiser is awsome! I like the shots of it in the mountains

BJ On Roids · 12-22-2002, 04:25 PM

im gunna pay it out and say your flex is gay

(jokes)

no wonder it doesnt get any hop from your wrap bar....wheres all your steep hills?

seriosuly though, it looks all purrrty, i wanna see the carnage pics of the broken frame and splintered front end CMAWWWN!!

MORE PICS!

468LC · 12-22-2002, 05:03 PM

LOL BJ your right the rear flex is horribly gay.

I will try some hinged shackles or some damn thing one of these years.

Believe me there are more steep hills around here than you can shake a stick at. They are very loose too.

I'll be damned if the old lady didn't bugger off with the digicam for the day.

Your just gonna have to wait.

468LC · 12-22-2002, 05:28 PM

Woah
I see the pirate board has the same problems as Corralnet.

WTF?

468LC · 12-22-2002, 08:51 PM

LOL BJ chill man.

NO need for a WTF.

I have about 6000 posts in various V bulliten and UBB boards and I have noticed a few things here that carry over to the corral when it comes to problems with b width and servers.

No big deal, I had just noticed that when I replied to your post and refreshed the page it did not go back to the top.

I will have some carnage pics one of these days.

BJ On Roids · 12-22-2002, 09:24 PM

WTF?

theres always a need for a WTF!!

yeah, so its just another BB? AHHH

so thats WTF corralnet is!!

see i didnt know and am too lazy to type it in
