The truck really turned out awesome

I also really dig the fact that with links and coils being the "cool thing" in this day and age, you guys choose to build a flat spring truck .

It may have been said already, but what size Goodyears are on the truck, and how do you guys like those tires?

40" MT/R's

I must have missed it ..What is the length of the bed? looks 6'-6.5'??

 

[Hogback Fabrication]

Can't measure that until they get back, sounds about right though

how did yaw seal up the cab where the roll gage goes through

Interior back together, cage sneaks through there nicely

Fuel tank and batteries, there is a cover for it that will be on it very shortly (possibly next time you see pictures this afternoon )

Our two link traction bar system, something we've talked about selling for a long time. If you put them in just the right spot they don't bind

can you give more information how to know where to mount the traction bars. That style would work better for my project.

So I saw an Ultimate Adventure jeep today in Fayetteville. Had to give him directions to the air port and was hoping to get to see this truck in person but no luck, just the jeep by himself.

 

[sweetk30]

did the jeep make a wrong turn in Albuquerque, New Mexico like bugs bunny would say

 

[big dan]

we didnt have much conversation, we were talking while driving side by side in traffic otherwise I would have asked more questions. I did find it odd that there was just one vehicle.

 

[swettysblazer]

Was it a purple cherokee by any chance?

 

[big dan]

no it was a newer 4-door jeep, a jk maybe? I dont know newer jeeps very well, just know it was a new 4 door jeep with a sweet roll cage, dynatrac axles, and king coilovers, with peterson plates and ultimate adventure stickers all over it

 

[swettysblazer]

Ahhh okay. A friend of mine got invited to go this year, just wondering if it was him haha

Your Friend must be Paden and Kelly. They had a bit of a rough time but with hard work made it through.

The jeep in Fayetteville was Mel Wade and Tim from Nitto tires. Mel had an event he had to leave in the middle of the UA for so Tim dropped him off at the airport and then rejoined the group.

It was a good UA and the ORD truck came out looking good.
