Reverse light's are done. fog light's were on sale at wally world for 10 buck's

spring hold down's are done as well. they should hold up alot better now.

spent the weekedn up in the huron mountain's at a buddy's camp. while bombin around on some snowmobile trail's we came across a subaru and a jeep stuck, they were up there kyaking. so made quick work of pulling them out. sent them on there way as they were stuburon and wanted to take the trail across instead of backtracking to pavement road's in the summer the gravel will save you over an hour. well in the spring it wont. woke up this morning in rough shape after a night of drinking. went out to the outhouse and what's sittin there the jeep. turn's out the subaru was burried about 10 mile's further up the road and your's truly had to go to the rescue. by i'de be lying if i said i didnt have fun.

So here's some shot's from this weekend.

looks like a good time. i think the guy in the subauru tried to take the hard line

 

[kroussinoffroad]

there wasnt really an easy line. I am still amazed at how far he made it. the guy looked like hahn from fast and the furious and was trying to drive like him too.

ah crap I took pregger's to see it friday. wish I woulda stuck around.

Just because something is 4wd, doesnt mean it can go through anything, maybe they learned something after you pulled them out twice.

tryin to decide what to do to the truck this weekend. Been lookin at flushing the taillight's and mounting tractor light's in the bezzels' like I saw on here somewhere. need to get the totaled camper stripped and moved outta the garage first.

 

[kroussinoffroad]

for those that havnt seen. Washed all the truck's so I posed them up for some pic's.

And here's what is left of the moto motel

 

[kroussinoffroad]

took the truck out saturday.
confirmed I need alot lower gearing, locker's armor and smaller bumper's. Added alot of new dent's and made some that i allready had worse. made a line thru some nice little rock section's and by the end of the night I was attempting rock gardens' that i never thought i would try. have a couple video's that i need to retrieve from my brother. but here are a couple of pic's from the evening.

this the one?

i cant remember whos they are but i like them alot. i want to make a set for my sj and i have to make a set for a buddy too

Solo motorsports makes these kinds of mirrors. I have a set but they never sent me the mirrors for it so kinda useless but they seem pretty strong. just slightly diffrent

 

[dangerranger83]

Man I wish I had a place that I could wheel like that, sucks that I have done all this work to mine and have yet to have a days worth of fun with my truck.

The Badlands is only a few minutes from you...

 

[dangerranger83]

I still have no clue exactly where it is. Guess i need to google it. First thing is first, get a winch put on it then I will feel more comfortable.

 

[kroussinoffroad]

best part of all those trail's is the trail head is within eyesight of my front door.

I really like those mirror's but i think i have a solution to my missing mirror in my near future. The one thing that make's me nervous is if the mirror does come into contact with a hard object i.e. tree is it gonna take out my door/A-pilar ? typically i wont get that close at any speed due to my wheel offset.
