Alright couple of things.....yeah yeah yeah ill get some pictures up tonight,but...

Is it normal to get a 20 gal tank and on the first fill up only get 18.5 gals? I was possibly thinking that the sponge baffles still had air in them.

And is there any chance of me getting my stock fuel gauge to work with this tank(RCI 20 gal), I hate after market gauges. (well the look of them, I know they work better. I just prefer the the look of the segesto-gauges)

lowtideride · 05-01-07, 10:49 AM

So, Im at work....working...

and one of the ladies in the office comes over and to tell me that someone hit my vehicle in the parking lot. The the front exo and ARB took the hit, nothing but scratched paint. The other vehicle got smashed up in the rear pretty bad.

Turns out some older fella dint put the brake on and his car rolled across the entire parting lot and hit Velveeta. It just missed two rather expsenive vehicles parked on both sides of me. Lucky for them.

I am in like flin for a Wagon run. What trails were you thinking, Slickrock would be a good one I think for a bunch of wagons.

agent orange · 05-01-07, 11:50 AM

I really dont know about the trails, im SUA so im not "hardcore", but ive got a pretty well put together combination that im not afraid to push. I dont have a straight panel on the truck so im not afraid of beating it up a little bit. I just might need to take the strap more than i would like.....

Im hoping to kinda feel out what im capable of the first couple days and really get it the last couple.

lowtideride · 05-01-07, 12:16 PM

You'll do great man, Slick rock isnt really a place where ya need a butt load of clearence, just some up hill ledges on a 90ft hunk of granite with nil traction when wet. The ride up to that is pretty cool because your in a tube of clay and mud followed by a rock garden...its a super fun run. ya got nothin to worry about.

I was thinkin the same thing ... but everyone look at my rig and say no

of course it reminds me of the time I had my brown 60 in a row with 6 tub buggys and asked the guy leadin the trail in a I dont know what, if I was on the right trail ... he said YES

Correct me if I'm wrong but I remember Ale's locked and exo'ed 80 on 37"s losing a swaybar and sustaining it's only body damage on that 90ft hunk of granite. I also remember a hefty rock and an off camber downhill ledge that was tricky to get the 80 down w/o rolling followed by an uphill ledge that no one made w/o winching even Franky on 39.5"s? I'm not saying it's impossible but it might take a while.

CruisinGA · 05-01-07, 10:38 PM

2 trips ago while I was there a stock tacoma on 32's made the last ledge while I was there...

the final ledge is nasty(er).

The main face is not bad.

See you in two weeks Al.
