Sgt Ex

Josh40601 · 08-18-2011, 07:00 PM

First off, please note that the rig was well built before i ever got it. Most of the work was done by the PO

When i bought the Ex, i wanted to make it my own. I seen an explorer on Explorerforums with a rattle canned desert tan paint job, and loved it, so thats what i decided on going with. Then i decided to step it up a notch... Why not dedicate it to the men and women serving this great nation?? So that is what the theme will be.

here are some action shots from the previous owner...

Yes, that is a juggy following the explorer

Here is a normal shot.

Plans are simple... Full cage, trusses, decorations, hydro assist, maybe more. We will see when that time comes.

Most updated shots will be posted here, as well as throughout the thread at the respective post.

As of 2/19/2012, Here she sits....

with the appropriate number of stars to reflect your service or your families

Another fantastic idea. I think this would be perfect for a windshield banner, as i plan to do one of those flag tints or whatever they are called on the back window.

I say put your unit on there somewhere, My Uncle was a marine in desert storm and he carved his Rank, name, Company and unit on the hilt and scabbard of a Ak-47 Bayonet

looks good. one thing tho...are those 40's bolted to that D44? that just seems like a bad idea to me. If youre light footed, all the power to ya!

Josh40601 · 08-18-2011, 10:17 PM

i thought about doing that, but this isn't a tribute to me or my marine corps carrer, its for all service members. I know the Marines will be the most predominant service, but i would like to incorporate something with all the services.

39.5's. I was worried too, but now that i have the doubler, i usually don't have to get stupid with the skinny pedal. with being yukons, can't you have them replaced for free?

laugh, my f*cking, ass off.

You realize I took that first picture?

Josh40601 · 08-18-2011, 10:26 PM

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Small freaking world my friend!

This is the rig i want all that Amsoil for.

Well, since you have seen it work in person, give me your take on it. Dan seems like a real great dude, i mean, hell, he is taking care of this thing and answering any question i have.

NMB2 · 08-18-2011, 10:30 PM

Josh40601 · 08-18-2011, 10:32 PM

that is where his ride ended

there is a reason there is no more pictures of the Ex with me and the samurai

Not a bad rig, did OK at clayton. Our opinions of what needs to be done may be completely different.
