Mike's '93 4x4

[MountainMike]

you do realize that until I get wheeling pics im going to keep hounding you about your pavement pounding mall crawler status right ?

Pavement pounder!

hey,he lives in the yukon....probably needs 4x4 just to get to the mall.

lol Mike you need to change the title of this thread from Jammer to: "the roast of MountainMike"

You guys happy now

First trip after the water pump got in. You can tell from the first pic I committed to my scoop and put some self-tapping screws in it, the corners were coming up. Also mounted my backup lamp. Still need to do one brake hose and upgrade to some sort of performance brake system. All in all it did awesome. Shifted into 4WD lightning fast. I love the manuals hubs too

And unlike half you guys I didn't take a picture flexing on the one random rock out there So cliche.

Well so far here it is:

- Put on my other front brake hose
- Redo my rear drums (shoes, drums and wheel cylinders)
- Mount my Lightforce lights
- Put my rear Rancho's on
- Install my F150 intake
- Build a center console to house my JVC head unit, Uniden CB and my amp & sub.
- Build my side exit exhaust

That is about if for now.

Thanks Tom, it really does make all the time, money and busted knuckles worth it.

I really like it up here, I'm sure you would too

Yep, thats actually only about 15 minutes away from my house up the mountain. I can see that spot from my backyard. It's about level with the airport, most of the town is inside the valley but newer developments have been pushed up the hill on the other side. This side is basically all trails.

beauty....great having wheeling spots close to home.hope the developers don't mess it up.

I don't think this side will get touched for houses. There is the cemetery at the beginning of the road. Quite aways up there are the main entrance to the trails, the biathlon track and the gun range. Way up at the end is the cell phone tower. I was considering going up there but I'll never do it when there is snow, the last half kilometer is barely 8ft wide dry with a sheer drop. I have no idea how service bodied trucks get up there. Explains the helipad I guess

shouldn't be too hard to put a heli rotor on the ranger....then there'd be no stopping you!
