yesterday went out wheelin with a bud, he has a 73 fj-40 spring over and 35'' boggers 90% tread, i have 6'' lift 33'' swopmpers. we came up to this steep ruted out hill clime, so i locked the hubs and went for it, truck was damb on its side because of the deep ruts but gave her hell and made it no prob, did it 4 times he only could get half way, it was pretty cool, have some bragging rights now, is it because my wheel base is longer, thats what i thought, any was, did it all with no prob, have pics soon. :icon_hornsup:

Sweet. My buddy has a 2wd ranger and he was keeping up with my buddys 4x4 jeep, well, at least on the general trails, and i'll be posting a whole thread soon. Jumped the truck at least 20 times.

Open them in MS paint, go to "image" then "stretch/skew" and resize them approx 60%. THEN SAVE AS, a different file name so you keep your good large original.

94" wheelbase FTW! I LOVE that I can crawl over all that stuff, and turn around almost anywhere. I once did a 15 point turn so i could get turned around and winch out!

Yo,
Also, if you use imageshack to upload them, there is an option to have imageshack resize them for you.
