Wheeled my 80 for the first time HAVE COUPLE PICS NOW
I built a 1988 mini toy with dual cases, 5.29 gears tuning 33" tires and it would go pretty darn well. I sold the truck to my Bro and bought my cruiser. We did a little trail weekend before last that he had trouble with, but eventually made it. Rocks and sand mixed makes for an interesting traction scenario. When it was my turn I was a little nervious, I hadn't spaced my front end up the additional 1.5" yet (got that done on Friday) so I wasn't sure I had the clearence. Well, even with my damage multiplier being the lowest point (it's hanging there until I have time to fab a bumper) I made it with ZERO rubbing and dragging. I couldn't believe it. It was almost too easy. I did have to be careful to keep my sheetmetal off the ledges on each side (my truck is still pretty LOL) but other then that it was easy. I won't be missing my 5spd on the next run. I love the 80!
