Speak for yourself, If you search before asking questions or at least acknowledge or thank for the answers to your unsearched questions...you will be fine. Fullthrottle will be just fine, he posted pics quickly ....as long as he puts a roll bar in we will be happy....

Fullthrottle will be fine. He's learned how it is here without going over the top and looking like a :clown:


you on the other hand haven't (and probably won't) figure it out... your not the first (lots of assclowns have come and gone from this site) and you won't be the last.


Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

June 16th, Saturday to Thursday the 21st for me. You know I would expect 100* temps at that time. I actually like to hit Pritchett late and wheel Behind the Rocks BACKWARDS in the dark. More difficult that way.
I am going to hit the easy trails like Pritchett with the Scout group if they are for it and then hit area BFE later with who ever wants to play hard..:smokin:

These guy pretty much set it up. I am just along for the ride.

Been there done it that way :) The weather rocks that time of year. I love the heat, the Scout doesn't all the time though. Pritchet being harder that way?

Coyote Trail would be fun to run :)

I'll try it make it. Work has been hectic it seems. That and I'm doing another tear down after my next trip.

pretty much fell off the earth....:homer:

finally got a cage and rock sliders along w/ body work done.

cage was done at www.Unlimitedoffroadcenters.com of fenton, mi.
Thxs Adam Justin and Jim.

body work was done by a friend Dave...very :smokin: guy

found a 392 ih v8 instead of the 345 rebuild... and still undecided on gears...5.89s (what the rear 35 spline semi-floater has now or something higher like 5.38 for strength. (d44 front/d60 rear))

last pic is a test fit on the 36" tsl swampers. i need to swap out suspension and axles still. but its a good fitment. :grinpimp:

:p so hi again :flipoff2:

new pics soon of the suspension work.

im using the old 345 t18 d20 as my weight to mock ride height as i do the axles and springs.

i'm close to saying the 392 t-19 wide are same weight.

when sus/axles are done, i'll start the wiring, engine and tranny swap.

already ordered parts..painless wiring. spring hangers next is clutch, carb, and dui ign.
