Where in florida do u go off roading at?

Shawn@BMS · 05-22-2012, 05:48 PM

Cody,

I see your in orlando. If your familiar with 414 (new toll road). There is an old dirt excavating area (about 40-50 acres) that is pretty fun to play in. Its all sand and has some cool elevation and places to jump. Also just after Sanford area just off i4 there are lots of sandy fire roads. Up in Jacksonville there is a bunch of good spots too.

Just read your whole build. Awesome progress man. I live in apopka And I swear I have seen your truck before. Last time was on I4 in the maitland area. I'm more of an active member on FRF but I troll on here every now and then. We are having a meet july 14th you should come out!

Shawn@BMS · 05-23-2012, 01:17 PM

Hey FF Parker. I live in Maitland. I own a business in Apopka. Im sure it was my truck. Not to many "prerunner" style trucks around here.

FRF (Raptor forums?)

Thanks

Just read through this, very good job! Its nice to see a well built truck, the hackjobs can be pretty scary! i wanna trim my bedsides, just cant bring my self to do it... their so nice and rust free!

I want those grabbers so bad, but with my truck seeing 80% pavement, they just dont work for me. 12" shocks will work nice for ya, they make a big improvement on ride. If your still running an overload, remove it... you'll thank me

Keep the updates coming, im excited to see whats next for you.

dont remove the overloads becuase youll ruin your leaf packs from sagging

Shawn@BMS · 05-24-2012, 06:58 AM

06RangerXLT,
Thanks for the comments. When i did the 64" swap i removed the overload. I weaved some ranger leafs in and had them re-arched. They work pretty good. A national pack is in the future.

I dont haul much in the bed of my truck. They overload is not great for articulation. most off road guys remove them.
