Nope, why you want to see some? It is much more fun to drive the truck on ir's side.

Not a big problem. just remove the carpet and lay it over a 2x4 above the ground. Spray with soap and rinse with the hose. We wash in Tide!!

Tirediron, how did she feel on the trail? Was she top heavy at all?

It doesn't feel as stable as the Volvo 6x6 but of course I have one less axle now. I need to have custom wheels made so I can keep the body off the banks and roots, I busted one flare and dented a door in the gulleys.

Over all it has done great, I had it at 37 degrees a couple of times and it felt pretty tippy but came out of it.

Awesome . Ever think of spacing the wheels out just a tad for a little more stability?

Never been a fan of spacers...these wheels are 8" with 8" backspacing, I'm thinking of going with some 10" with 6 or 7" backspacing.

THREAD HIJACK IN PROGRESS!!!!!

TiredIron, where did you get the chain attaching point for your pintle hook? I have a pintle to bolt on but was wondering about the plate for the safety chains.

Thanks,
Dave

That's in the Tillimook State Forest. I will PM you with my phone # if you ever want to make a road trip to go wheeling. Otherwise just watch the Forum on the Cascade Cruisers website for upcoming trail runs.

Been there!

I dipped into the "getting stuck" pot too many times with the wifey riding in my old Samurai. Now she is completely freaked out anytime I get near mud or water.

Too bad Ontario wheeling is basically mud and water, she's always pissed when she sees the muddy mess on the LX when I get home.
