Thanks to the fella in the dodge power wagon, i didnt spend all day in this position!

 

[Reid]

left most of my tread back there on the trail! street tires suck.....and get worse as the day goes by!!!

 

[Roughshod]

Ouch! I love those rigs. Don't come back without lift and tires! And rock sliders! It's a shame to see it mashed a little like that.

 

[fattypackard]

Did you buy that FJ from Spence Wilcox by any chance??

stock rigs at UNF keep it interesting. i've driven a stock TJ to an XJ on 38s there and i've had the most fun in the stock TJ. you do tend to leave more trail scars on the stock rigs however!

 

[Reid]

yeah, i went to high school with spence. Stock is definatly fun. Couple inches bigger tires would have been nice though!

 

[wncmtnrunner]

stock wheeling is more fun by far

Was it a big boy in a newer red power wagon, or an older model.

 

[Reid]

newer black shortbed.

 

[greg slade]

that would be Rob C. good people and he doesn't mind wheeling that beautifull truck the way it was intended.

Pretty ballsy to go DOWN the ledge in a stocker.
Def need to rocker panel gaurds, if not to protect the body (eh, who cares) but to make it easier to slide right down.

 

[Reid]

yeah, if i could of slid off instead of hanging on the exhaust it would of been fine.

Well..if Rob C. is on this forum BIG thanks. he has one sweet ride! he was on his way up to kodak after he left me!

lol...ever seen the insane amount of overhang on a landcruiser!! thank God for the hitch receiver!

get some protection, those rigs are too rare to bash up like that.

lol....currently taking donations for my "save the cruiser" foundation!!!!!

i did the hard trails but i tried to be gentle as possible.


i really would like an exocage and some sliders but with fuel prices the way they are......... i'll have to wheel it like it is for a while.

 

[benXJ]

for the price of a weekend wheeling trip, you could have some sliders welded up for you. i love to see FJ 60s and 62s on the trail, just hate to see them getting messed up.

 

[Reid]

where can i get some for 80 bucks?

 

[fattypackard]

ditto

For basic single-rail sliders, you could get the steel for less than that if you hunt around a little. Esp if you can get lucky at Atlantic Scrap.
Then spend $63 on registering for a welding class at Forsyth Tech, and you can get all the welding supplies + welding time (your own) free.
