Some winter wheeling pics

[blazinzuk]

Last weekend I went wheeling in Horton. Lovely day wasn't even that cold probably in the 20s but the sun was shining

Here is a couple guys who went with, the high hood is super cool with a nissan motor, nissan trans, sami t-case, mini truck toy axle in front and a land cruiser axle in the rear, front is linked rear is leafs 35" pitbulls on it

The Jeep right next to me is on 40" yokohamas with one tons and 3" of lift

This guys Jeep is cool too, on a toy frame linked front locked with toy axles etc etc etc.

I have more pics of us getting stuck but they are from a freind and need to get the cd with them from her.

We went up the road a ways where they don't plow and had a blast going just off the road. The snow right here was at least 5 feet deep.

Looks like fun, and mid-20's sounds good for around there I remember the first winter I spent there in 2009, I found a drift that was at least 15' deep.

Anytime man anytime.

It really wasn't that bad I had two shirts on and my insulated coveralls and some nice gloves, halfway through the day I just put on some mechanix gloves and unzipped my coveralls.

Nice boots help a bunch but I can honestly say I never felt cold. Going down the road it was cold on the face but that wasn't for very long.

Something cool I just noticed I built the cage in the green CJ the cage in the silver high hood, the tubed out toyota 4 runner just behind the high hood, did the gears in the Jeep with 40s. I think out of 12 rigs that were there I did major work on all but 2 of them. Kind of cool to think about

Also now you guys know why my truck is all dented up, look at these little tiny rigs I wheel with

I always wondered why people dovetail the front and rear. Looks like a fun time!

Horton towers over the jeep w/ 40's
Looks like a good trip.

Rocks man, rocks. I still dent the front even though its narrowed. Its going to get even narrower eventually. The rear seams to be fine though and it helped a ton when I took the cab off.

I love snow wheeling. Like mud without the cleanup.

What tires are you running in the snow? I forgot if MTs or Boggers were better lol

Pit bull rockers in the 42" variety, different snow demands different treads. boggers suck on our snow if its deep. Wheeling in Idaho snow is kind of like wheeling in granulated sugar, boggers just dig you a grave.
