We spent the last 7 days on the Dusey, I broke a sector shaft, shacke and put my rig on its side about 1000 feet from the end of the trail.

great pics...like the 2nd one where you can see the 14 bolt acting as an anchor 
Sounds like some pretty good carnage. How did the side of the truck fare from the flop?
Looks like no hydro assist. May be part of the broken sector shaft (in combination with big tires, of course).

I took the ram off a while back, it was leaking. There isnt a straight panel on the rig including the hood
. Oh well had a great time, saw some of the most beautiful country there is and I have a tub bender so I guess its tube time

Nice pics. Where is this Dusey you're talking about? I'm in Reedley and havn't heard of it? Looks like a narley Trail. What is the tube on top of the cage for? Whats your plans with the bender? Thats a lot of Questions.Why? I don't know.

The Dusey-Ershim trail goes from Courtwright Resivour to Hunington lake. 33 miles of wheeling fun. Its a technical trail and lots of boulders and tight trees. You must be a newbee to hardcore wheeling if you have never heard of it and you live in Reedley (no disrespect intended). It is a trail I plan on doing at least once a year from here on out, its that much fun.
The tube is for my fishing pole, I only buy 1 piece rods.
I plan on keeping the firewall windshield frame and door posts and tubing out the rest of the rig.
When you want to go play let me know, you are just around the corner from me. Swamp Lake is 11 miles long and a lot of fun too.

Yes I am a bit of a newb. Trying to make the rig to handle the harder trails
though.
Just about ready to head up there. What do you suggest is a good starter?
though.

The Best bet is Bald Mountain, it can be as easy as you want or pretty challanging.
Brewer, Mirror, Coyote. those are short trails and not too tight for the most part. Give me a call if you want to go wheling, I will PM you my #.

I'm waiting on Pete to see all the pictures. I haven't even heard how the trip went. I guess he's up on Rubicon for the week now though. One of these days I just might get free time to go wheeling again.
