Cool I may just copy this tonight. if i do I'll post it on my thread, I think i may copy how you cut out the front fenders also. I've always thought the way you did this truck was very clean.

It’s ok for a Cali truck...lol
Okay, but it doesn't say the transmission will be damaged running below 175. I can understand where that's an ideal number but I only dream of living in an ideal world.
Well there goes my chances of getting in the calendar...more pics from the Rubicon, these ones Pat took. Professional photographers sure know how to capture the trail better!
Slipped off a rock here, took out my taillight around that next corner
We're going to have a calendar full of just Skunked pictures lol.

One would think that if you are running consistent temperatures outside of the ideal operating range it would have a long term effect on the transmission right? What that effect and how much wear (damage) that is I don't know.....
meh, I thought I had good ones last year and didn't get in.
They just ran out of room for the 150-175 range on that chart because the life expectancy bar would be infinity.
How can I get some of those pictures from @offgridoffroad ?
Buwhaha! Cold pizza is safer on the roof of your mouth too.
Rubicon album on here, she uploaded them.

Damn I miss the trail. I still have the goal to get back and run it in reverse. I'd love to do Fordyce too. The blazer wants another shot at SoupBowl (iirc)
Soup Bowl was fun, once we found the line it wasn't too hard.

Love the pics. Great looking machine and looks like it worked nicely on the trail.
Hey, how did your passenger side exhaust work out after you redid it? I’m gearing up to do mine and was curious if you had any pics after you rerouted it?
This coming thursday we have a bachelor trip planned for gold lake which has a cool little 4wd trail around one side of the lake with 16 campsites. From the sites there’s tons of OHV trails for the guys to ride their bikes, sxs’s and myself in the truck. We found out last week the campsites are closed for the next two months so we’ve been throwing around alternative lakes that are remote so we can be loud and have fun with our toys. Yesterday the decision was made to camp at Fordyce lake and a couple buddies with buggies are joining us now. Spent the day today changing bushings, re wrapping transmission lines and clearancing the skid plate.
I think the truck is going to get some dents.
