not trying to thread jack or anything, but anyone near Memphis??? i'm actually in MS, i don't know why i'm not in the SE according to TRS... but its all good lol.

Noone that post regular from that far west, but all tennessee is welcome, and those that wish they were here!, LOL. Sorry. its not threadjacking, anything goes in here.


I want to go ahead and cut them and run the 33's but itll kill any mileage I might have left. I listed them on CL all 6 31's and the 33's plus all my wheels for one decent set of 31's or 33's with wheels. we'll see what comes of it.

84, tellico plains is one big wheeling park, I believe they sell map of the park just like windrock does. If you do make it over this way, itll definitely be worth the drive. hell its only 2-3 hr drive, last time me and b2 and hatman went out we wheeled from 7pm till 1 am. never the same trail twice. If i remember correctly windrock has over 70k acres. Im sure once every is up and running properly, we might one day plan a small ranger adventure to tellico or someplace nearby. I hear arkansas and missouri have some pretty bangup trails.

should be just a 2 hour drive from murphy..so i was told today so maybe we can plan on a day of wheelin rangers lol

tested it out on the lake a little. It worked like a dream, now i just need traction. I wont do anything hardcore on the lake without my towrope and a friend. These tires are prolly good grabbing but just too worn, I think Im gonna mount the 33's soon as I can. Itll be wierd with no lift.

84ranger, I know someone who 'might' weld you hubs for a small fee or at least tell you how, then you wont have to worry bout them breakin anymore, least not till you upgrade to 38's and doubler. LOL.


Brad next thursday I will bring the axle, I wanna let you have a good look at what I was sold and ran for over a year, lol. Im surprised it took as long as it did for the pig to detonate. Hatty, wheres my pics?!

lol ive got some spares but i took them apart to get water out of them and now i cant figure out how to get them to work. i put them in order when i took the parts out and put it back in like it was

Oh, this was the inside of Froggy's front pumpkin when we took it off! No wonder he didn't have 4x4! LOL

Man that is what I my old one looked like, except it still worked. Well it worked until I took the carrier apart, then all the bearings fell out.

 

[feellnfroggy]

well this one was working fine till I drove through the lake, without the extended diff vent hose, and put on the welded hubs. Which was the same as live axles. Burnt it up quick!


All fixed now, Rocks on the west side of Henderson Island Preserve.

By the way, dont have body flex. Thats just some hillbilly adjusted rocker panels.

 

[r1hatman]

Sweet, I'll have to come up there next time or we can hit the power line trails down here. I wonder if you could get through that mud hole you blew your water pump in again?

doug. are you going to use your uncles axles or what? I need to know cause I want them NOW!!!

i would if i could get them out of the woods! he wants to keep them under it so he can tow it...because he wants to get the motor and trans out of it. and who knows when he'll get around to doing that. so who knows, i'm just looking for the best deal/easy way out.

i already have gears for my front axle, if i could find a rear axle ready to go with gears it would save a whole lot of work!
