Thought this picture was perfect for ih8mud. Running 315/75r16

I’ll be working. Have fun!

Thank you! I appreciate that. The 35's definitely look correct on the cruiser...however, I haven't gone anywhere else the 285/75r16 couldn't take me. I haven't had the 35's for too long, so I haven't gotten to explore as much quite yet.

Woah! Those might be them! I always thought the cruiser was only lifted around 1-1.5" -- When I would park next to other cruisers with a 2" lift, you could easily tell they were taller. Thanks for the help!

I can’t wait to get back to the Moab area. So much to explore over there.

Oh that's awesome! I am around Bridger Canyon quite a bit. The Christmas tree picture is looking down Hyalite lake.

After getting back from that trip, I wanted to replace the valve cover gaskets. Every job takes longer than expected, so I gave myself the whole day to finish it up. Well...all the bolts came out perfect...except for the one closest to the firewall. So, I thought I would use an extractor. Broke...

Some pictures from the St George trip. First we went off to go see the Grand Canyon. The trail was pretty tight for the wide 100. Got a few extra scratches. Unfortunately the canyon was pretty socked in with clouds and rain. The next day, the dirt turned into serious mud. Found out quickly what...

I went out on a camp/wheeling trip in the early spring and ran through quite a bit of some snowy sandy mud. I didn't think much about it until I went with my friend to go pick up a used transfer case for his Lexus. I thought I should look underneath mine just in case mine was leaking. And after...

There was really only one solution to carrying the spare. Swingouts. So, I went about trying to figure out how to make this as simple as possible. I should mention that my welding skills are...sub par...so all the bar work you have seen has been done by a very talented local fabricator. He does...

Now, with the increased tire size, the spare tire wouldn't fit underneath anymore. I went out on a snow trip, where I tested having it on the roof...that just didn't work for me. Made a lot of noise, and I was constantly worried it was going to fall off. So, I had another trip where I just...

I finally had finished enough side work to finish off the bar work on the cruiser. So the front bumper design came to life.

I had been working a few side jobs to help fund some fun items, and I finally hit my goal. So in preparation for that, I hammered in the pinch weld, cut a tiny bit off the bottom (where the screwdriver is pointing), and took a heat gun to the plastic liners to get them to mold to the new shape...

Explored and camped some more with that setup for awhile longer. I was really liking the look of the back, and had plans on how the front could tie it all together.

Driving Moab for the first time was an amazing adventure. The added protection in the rear definitely came in handy, and I managed to even hit the front still. So it was a good thing I removed the covers. I couldn't have asked for a better first trip. Poison spider, hells revenge (including...
