Went out this morning for a quick trip. Got the left front tire pretty high off the ground. We had to winch it to keep the nose down. FUN!

Hey, look, ITS ME! And a fun time was had by all!

My truck has too much articulation. I need to install bump stops and limit straps. Based on forklift measurements and a little math, I should ramp way over 30 degree ramp! 56's front and rear.
 
What are the spec on the blazer? Whats the tire size? Anyways looks like yall had a blast. I wish there were more place like that around were i live. Its mostly just mud.
 
Blazer has 36 inch swampers. Narrow (about 10 to 11 inches). Locked front and rear. It was slippery and wet. Busted some of the rock with the diffs and mushed a rocker. It has good articulation. The pics you see were while we were trying to figure out how to get out. I'm a newbie, but am definitely hooked on the wheelin thing!
 
Thanks for posting those. Not nearly enough pictures of my truck or mr (apparently worse than I thought) balding head!
 
Looking good man. I am new to the wheeling scene. Here are a few pic of mine. I just put the 38s on last night.

Hubnut, that looked like pucker factor of 9.:eek1:

BlazerBoy, we might need to go wheelin. I'll be back in Dallas at the end of August and hope to at least get a meet and greet together.
 
hubnut - is your front diff cover painted with the free tibet symbol???

blazerboyk5- veddy nice, how much lift are you running? im picking up my 1 tons and 38in swampers tomorrow. stilll need to get my lift thought. ah well, gives me time to do the disk brake and SRW hub swap on the D70HD
 
The posted tire size is 38 x 13 on 16x8 rims. They measure out to be 37.5.

As for the lift, i have a 4in springs and a 1" zero rate (moved the axle 1.5in forward.) and a 4in block in the rear. I have a shackle flip in my possesion but i need another set of zero rates so i can put it on.

And Sanders, send me a pm when you get in town and id be more than happy to get together. :saweet:
 
Yeah thanks man. I just couldnt pass them up. 200 for the tires and wheels delvered. Do you blame me?
