Where did you buy your parts to make the doubler shifters?

 

[Foxracin]

Got the 3/8 heims off ebay and got the 3/8 threaded rod from Fastenal. Got the shift knobs and boots from JB Fabrication. Got the 1/2 solid rod from Lowes for the handles. The base part of the shifters where it bolts to the trans are pieces of stock transfer case shifter cut up and bent how I needed them.

Went to Callalantee this past weekend in Mountain City, TN.

Didnt get many pics but couple other people got pics and vids. Ill see if I can get some.

Did farily well besides popping a few u joints and twisting off a rear driveshaft. Crawled everything I tried besides the stuff it broke on. The doubler is great. Should have done it a looong time ago.

The group shot.

Found some snow on one side of the mountain.

Twisted up pretty good.

Here is the ledge where it broke the rear shaft and u joint. Damns near had it cleared and a rock kicked out from under the back tire and landed on the frame/driveshaft. Back tires are about 2 feet in the air in these pics.

Driveshaft.

Not so pretty anymore. lol

Got this fix for the u joint problem in the mail. Should be here sometime this coming week. Cant wait to get it back together and get back out there and try the stuff again.

that driveshaft looks fine...

 

[Foxracin]

Some pics Slowlyvverot sent me off his phone he got.

Popped the first u joint on that waterfall.

On a side not I drove 2.5 hrs there. Wheeled it. Drove 2.5 hrs back home and got around 17mpg. Not to shabby.

Expecting a package from fedex tomorrow. Woo hoo. Also ordered some more parts today. Pics tomorrow.

that's an awesome pic, cool lookin place to wheel. i wanna take my b2 up there one day. one question, where there hippies boycotting at the trail entrance?

that guy is STRONG!

 

[Robert_1967]

There is a guy on the local Craigslist claiming his BII get 25 mpg, mine only gets 18 when I'm real careful, and easy on the gas, so I would say 17 in a Explorer is great.


and that is some nice trails from looking at the pictures, thank you for them.

just wondering, last time i was in asheville i saw a shit-ton of them. they're an odd species, drawn to the mountains for some reason.

how far over the state line is it?
