I changed the sign .. I was just off a busy intersection begging. "Will work for Fox Shox, aftermarket bumpers, and a new Toughbook .. "
A stray hubcap off a dodge bounced recklessly off a curb and nailed me in the nutsac ..

I think that if someone is into mud (like Drexx), Hollister is like candyland. But if you are into rocks, both Hollister and Prarie City are a bit disappointing.
Just my take

I totally understand what you guys are trying to say, I just love wheeling!!! I'll wheel in a sandlot and have fun, that's how much I love to wheel  I can't think of any other thing that I love to do as much, it is unfortunte I don't live close to the real nice places like you guys do, but I take my trips.....

Ty,
I was doing some searching and ran across some old posts from 05.
You had Henry up then as you avatar. Good to see it again.
When are you going to post up some serious off road shots

I wouldn't say that at all.
By the way, expedition wheelin' trip is scheduled to take place in two weeks. If you are interested check in the SC - upstate cruiser section.
To stay on topic, i'll add this pic from this weekend.

Thanks, but it wasn't very hard everything fit like a glove and it only took four days. I've wheeled the crap out of it every since I built it and only had one crack on a top control arm bracket which I just needed to beef up a little.
I would highly recommend this mod
