I am going to try to make this.....check your calenders

I was thinking about trying to work this out for myself. I figured I'm on the once a year wheeling schedule.

Anyone still thinking about going to this? I've got one possible conflict if I have some out of town relatives coming in that weekend.

Need a copilot Marty? If I can't pull together my brother's 40 I might have a trailer for your 40 to ride on...not too sure I wanna wheel the 62.

Probably will, I don't think Jenny's planning on going. I should know next week what is going on. My 40 would love trailer ride.

If I have OOT relatives coming in, I would definitely go!

phishtaco · 08-03-09, 03:48 PM

I have to back out from going....My mom has guilted me into coming to cbus for her bday and to watch my brothers ride their bikes with Lance Armstrong.

zebrabeefj40 · 08-03-09, 08:41 PM

I'm thinking about taking the 62. Toss some Swampers on it and a locker or two in the diffs and see how it goes. What could possibly go wrong!?

Nick, you can borrow the 35" swamper radials you mounted a while back. My truck is on some more DD friendly all seasons right now.

zebrabeefj40 · 08-04-09, 01:01 PM

Thanks Jim but I already have several sets of Swampers to chose from. I think the 34x9.5 TSL's on hubcap wheels will be getting the nod for this event... The 36x13x16 TSL's on 80 series steelies with internal beadlocks might be a little too big. Maybe some backyard testing is in order.

All your tires are gonna dryrot before you use them up.
Just get out the sawzall and chop out some rust, I bet you can make them fit.

zebrabeefj40 · 08-04-09, 06:33 PM

Tell me about it Marty...

Not an issue of fitting the 36's. I bet they self-clearance just fine. Not sure if the motor has enough nuts to run them. Maybe in low range it won't be a problem. Must do some testing...

I'll be with the Big Green Machine in Ft Knox.

BUCKEYE4X4 · 08-27-09, 06:43 AM

Looks like I am not going.

This was the first week of school and I went to start my truck last night and the fuel pump is making wierd noises and the engine has a miss. In addition, if my truck was running I could not leave till Friday after work.

bummer
