I switched to a Linux server so it's now case sensitive...

I've read through the whole "fred" Awesome!!!What happened to the 80?

It's sitting on my trailer getting ready to head out to Mountain City, TN this morning for a day of wheeling.

If you want some good reading read the Pirate build thread...

Where is there to wheel in Mountain City? BTW, that is where I picked up my LC 2 years ago.

 

[TiredIronGRB]

Callalantee, it has a few good trails but not much to write home about. It has a good waterfall that I just about flipped over backwards on today, tore my rear bumper up (some more) and dented the quarter panel.

There was a girl video taping and taking pictures I'll post up when I get them.

 

[alkaline747trio]

Not worth a 3 hour drive, but worth checkin out if I'm in the area? Public land? Cost anything?

 

[TiredIronGRB]

$11

Hurry up with the pics already!

Did you make it up without winching?

Also, how the progress on the full belly skid?

Did you make it up without winching?

Yes, but I did have them hold my front down with a strap. It kept wanting to come over when the springs started unloading, I'm going to weld a loop on the axle so I can use the winch to pull it down.

Also, how the progress on the full belly skid?

Haven't done anything yet

 

[concretejungle]

Cool.

I was thinking you may be holding off on the skid since there's a for sale sign in the window.

 

[TiredIronGRB]

I think I've got over wanting to sell it.

I think I've got over wanting to sell it.

hehehehe.....couple of wheelin' trips is all it took.

Glad you came back to your senses.

I finally got a good winch for the Cruiser, a buddy saw it on Pirate and gave me a heads up.

It's a Warn commerical 12K made for the Civilian H1 Hummer.

It has a narrower bolt pattern (8.5") than most standard winches (10") so I had to design some adapter plates to make it work on my bummer.
The original mounting bolts are 1/2" :shock:

 

[concretejungle]

are you putting synthetic on that?

 

[TiredIronGRB]

Yes, I already had it on the MM.
