If ya aint breakin parts you aint wheelin hard enough

 

[upnover]

Ricky, what confuses me is why you replaced the propane system that was on that engine with a carb?

 

[Ricky B]

Well I was trying to sell that whole drivetrain setup to fund the caddy 500 swap but then I came across the jeep and I still had the 350 so I slapped the motorcraft 2100 on there since I had already sold off the propane.

Or you started with an ill prepared rig

No when you ARE breaking parts you aint building it good enough.

Anyway I thought this thread was about DPG this past Saturday not bashing the Z71 Jeep. SO I know someone else has to have some pictures to post.

Well one its still my DD. I don't have a choice of getting Daddy's truck or buying another vehicle right now. If i had another vehicle, the jeep would be a lot bigger. And yeah, lets see some more pics.

Wish I could have made it. What were the results of 6000lb+ rockwelled rigs vs sub 42's? How did the xzl(?)s do? And was there any ice?

 

[91oneton]

no ice ... saw some snow however

if you need anything more than a 39" you're compensating...lol
I've seen from past rides different sizes do well in different areas.

 

[Ricky B]

there were a good few rigs out there with sub 42's, it seemed like its not neccesarily about having the big tires to do the DPG stuff, its more about having the right kind of tire tread (ie:regular mud terrains dont really cut it, more along the lines of tsl's or iroks or any of the more aggressive tire treads), having lockers, and good ground clearance.
