lol...the first pic, with the tow strap hanging over the hood must have been right after you rescued me~!

bad ass trail rig man!
 
I like the line choice on the ledge at RML. That's got some serious flex for a fullsize rig with a mild lift. Very nice.
 
Bigredb2 did I pull you off of the ledge and onto the bypass may 17th?
94yj4.0 Yes I do have a 5 gallon can mounted in the bed.
and thanks for the compliments
 
I remeber my last trip to URE. I brought the wife so I wouldn't say "hey yall watch this" :shaking: We spent more time holding trees back so I could fit between them.:driver:

lol...pulled is an understatement. my big ass iron pig was high centered and lodged onto the exhaust. The Trail Whale had no problems pulling me up and out.

Was just me or did you just use the weight of your truck and gravity? it didnt even feel like you used the throttle!
 
BigRed - My truck weighs 8000lbs and I had the lockers engaged in 4Lo. I seem to be able to pull anyone I want. So far?
Greenford - Thats why I don't get bushwacker fender flares on mine
 
Greenford - I do find myself within a few inches of rocks and trees quite often too. I have a hardest time squeezing thru the top of Kodak where no one spots!
 
Holy $40k bad trail rig Bat-Man!

I love it!; but you're a ballsier man than myself bringing something that nice and that big out there. Keep 'wheelin it though, don't get me wrong.

very glad this was the case! with my luck i was expecting a sammy to roll up!

again, glad you were there!

lol, surpised you were out there at first when i saw the dodge sitting at the bottom of the hill....but as you drove off...i quickly realized you werent going to have any problems!
 
I think this is the first Power Wagon I have seen being wheeled! I figured we would see lots of them, Locking F&R and a Warn 12k from the factory is a sweet option!

What are the axles in those again? D60/70 or?

Very nice, very brave! If I win the lottery I was thinking I would love a reg cab version, yank the bed, build a custom toolbox/flat bed, and 'boat sides' under the doors and slap a set of 37-39" tires on there (clearance front fender/flares as needed) and wheel it!
 
Thats some great flex outta that rig! So Whitey you happen to know the person in the yellow wrangler on the line in front of you in that one pic?
 
sick truck

btw your balls are dragging in the third pic:lol:
 
y2krawler Thanks, my wife was driving the yellow tj in front of me. I had her join the site last night.
shinton The PW has AAM axles front and rear with 9.25" in front (a little bigger than 60) and 10.5" in rear. Thats the hardest part about wheeling my truck is the pumpkins hangin down so far.
 
i love the truck whitey , and i feel ya on the hardly fitting on some of the trails up there. i got a 01 ford super crew with 6" of lift...but you got me beat !!! because you got the solid in the front, who the hell ever thought it would be good to put IFS on a truck??? its a truck its not made to have a good ride! well great lookin truck, and good to see more big trucks on the trail!!:beer:
 
captaincamf150 how does your truck do going up Daniel or the ledge at rocky mtn loop? And how about kodak rock, do you take any of the lines up there?
