Me and Chris went and played at Prairie City today....

Messin' around on Frame Twister....

-------------------------------

Go, go... gadget-wheel's!

Self clearancing fender's...

----------------------------------

Over-achiever....

Chris's truck is a charicature...

------------------------------

There's more....

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

This seemed to be a re-occuring theme...

----------------------------------------
Random hill climb...

-----------------------------------------

Look at the grimmace on his face!

That's why...

------------------------------------------

Doesn't this look like 'stop motion animation'!?

----------------------------------------

I parked on a hill.....

Then, Chris tried to knock me off it...

---------------------------------------------

*still more...

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

This is the obstacle Chris got stuck on, in the rain...

[Conquered.]

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

Wheeling to Valhalla...

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

I did some stuff, too...

-------------------------------------

On Frame Twister...

--------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------

In dire need of a shackle flip...

 

[NorCal_Chris]

Sooo many awesome shots!!!

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

They turned out pretty good.

Thanks for takin' the pics of my truck, too.

Both trucks are lookin pimp guys!!!

Give me a ring next time you go, the jimmys done(apart from the front shaft needing clearencing) and Im itching to do some wheeling!!!

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

I'm in the dog house for bein' gone all day w/ Chris....

So I gotta wait, like, a week...

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

Forgot these...

Haha I know the feeling.
Week sounds good. Gives me time to get the front shaft in and clearenced and some more testing done

Chris, truck looks like it's workin pretty boss for you... Quick saftey question; on the fixed end of your ram, why did you put the fastener threads up insted of heads up and no nylox or lock washer?

thanks!

I didnt want the bolts getting all buggered up being nut down. There is a small tack weld on either nut on the backside.

 

[NorCal_Chris]

yet again the concensus after this trip is that i need a doubler......

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

Yep.... You could sure use one.

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

I wish you could find that stupid camera cord....

You hear from those helicopter guy's?

no. I check my email like 10000 times a day waiting to hear from them. I even spent like 2 hours searching vimeo for their channel.

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

Hmm....

I can't find it online, and I have mad Google skeelz....
Must not be up, yet.
