hey RB are those tires on right? they almost look like the tread is goin the wrong way, might just be me though. either that is one bad @$$ looking rig. amazing how the bumper really finished it!! your buddy did a great job.

yeah they are on backward. However the baja claws have a better bite when mounted in reverse.

Well we went to Evart and did our 3rd Annual run with the Sundowners and wow was it fun. The snow was incredible. It was 3-6 feet deep. Didn't matter how big of tire you had or what kind of lockers you had you were going to get stuck. At one point we were driving down into a bowl and everyone was stuck and we were on a steep decline. The van performed awesome she will push some serious snow. I got a lot of thumbs up from snowmobilers. However early in the day I noticed that when in the deep snow the van would pop out of Reverse with a bang. So I had to hold it in gear and that only worked a couple times and the next thing I know the reverse was done. She went with a loud bang.The 4 forward speeds were unaffected so I wheeled her the rest of the day without reverse. I love the low 1st gear of the TK4 and it really makes the 4.0L come to life, but it looks like I'll have to throw my spare FM145 in there and see if she will hold up. I'll see if I ended up with any good pic's and post them later today. RB

Good lord man, pics, I know we're all anxious to see this thing in action. Tough luck on the tranny, are you going to have to move mounts around at all to get the FM in?

Please do something with the rocker panels! Everything looks cool as hell except the typical rotted off rockers!

Thanks! Who gave them too you? I take it they were in Steve's group. My 7 year old was in charge of the camera so i have no idea what she got. I just brought her camera in and it's so cold it wont turn on so I'm sitting here waiting for it to warm up. RB

Send that TK4 back down here. I'll fix it for you. I'll see what I can do to improve it as well.
