[BRUISER]

6x6 is SWEET

 

[Rich]

That's looooooong! very cool...

 

[Rob]

Very nice. Will I have to winch it up slick rock again?

 

[jdubb]

The only thing I want to know is, is that thing fun to drive on trails?

 

[Black Bear]

thats sweet.

 

[NC_Mog]

Will I have to winch it up slick rock again?

I don't think its ever going to see slick rock. Not that I ever was too hard core, but I'm toning it down for the forseeable future.

That's looooooong!

Yep its a bit longer. However it turns super tight...it typically pivots on the forward rear axle.

 

[Ridgerunner]

Very nice
you should post up some of the Specs

 

[1stgenxxx]

Mogs make me happy

 

[RufusTheRam]

[MR. GADGET]

[Yay!Gurrr]

SWEET !! Somehow i knew you'd end up with one of those... I think slickrock would be np... make up a few simple guards for the exsposed brake/locker lines and have at it

Man thats awesome!

I can see toolin around Kernersville in that The rednecks here would be runnin home to get their deer guns thinking "Red Dawn"

 

[RufusTheRam]

lol. except that pinz is a british company. i wouldn't expect rednecks to know that though, they do have an eastern europe look.

 

[CasterTroy]

i wouldn't expect rednecks to know that though

Especially since getting them to accept that 70% of their Hardley-Ever-Runs was MFG in china and korea is damn near impossible

If it ain't got bowtie or blue oval you better duck

 

[CJDoug]

Nice,
Don't worry, if this lays over I will help you stand it upright (I need more video footage).

Nice new tow rig, except that you don't need to tow with it just put your rig in the bed!

Fits beautifully. I actually dragged the trailer to Arkansas to get it. The way I positioned the Pinz on the trailer, the back stopped right at the beginning of the dovetail.

Nice,

Doug

More footage? I haven't seen the last footage you shot. Hopefully I won't screw up and drop this one on its side. One good omen...it came with a wheel chock behind the driver's seat.

 

[wflaw45]

talk about a tow rig, you could put your trailor queen ontop of that sucker

 

[wflaw45]

Nice new tow rig, except that you don't need to tow with it just put your rig in the bed!

Yep. Nice folks. I had bought parts from them in the past, but never had visited. It sure is a haul from here.
