The "under destruction builds" supersize75k5 's driveway of despair and repair

I've been having a blast, been out enjoying life, some wheeling trips, family time, snow trips, Vegas trip, some birthdays, crazy stories and some good memories. :D

Snow trip that turned into a night of digging, winching, and good time wi s highway patrol guy that we got stuck thn unstuck then stuck then unstuck then stuck then unstuck:popcorn:
 
Met up with my buddy chad for some wheeling and we found a Sami powered buggy on a set of the low production 42" sticky boggers in the parking lot we met at..so he tagged along for some fun.

Not many pics being it was a last minute trip and I just brought the dog.

Couple issues, I could not get the planetary part of the atlas to shift into low to get 5.44 to 1, cable maybe clogged up, broke or who knows. So that left me with only 2:1. Made some parts pretty hard with out gearing but had a day of fun with some good obstacles.

The driver ORI I need to send in to get fixed, so I have no bump on that side.. On the way out truned into a race track and I hit a wash out. Chad found piece of my starter and all kinds of stuff when he came up behind me, upper link ate it. I had lowered the ori's for the trip, now they are back up again.

Fun time

Also me up with Dave and his son from the body shop, some of you may remember a jeep project I was doing for on and off and on over a few years, three wrecked jeeps turned into one is the red one shown.

Trail is near Payson as and had a nice light layer of snow to make it slippery and pretty

Hows the tablet mount holding up with bouncing around after a few trips?
 
A lot of good pics, is this a record for time that you haven't broke something?
 
I'm alive:popcorn:

I'll have to play catch up..


Quick rundown..


After a little searching I finally found a fiberglass unity slide in I really like for work for a long bed, then proceeded to buy another truck to use just for work. Picked up a gmc 2500 till I can't find a 2010-2012 half ton loaded 4x4 gmc single cab with a ls package "read impossible :doah:"

Figured this should keep miles down on the duramax and I don't have to clean it out every weekend. Sould stay nice:woot: well ten this weekend a ford van hit it and took me out:doah: now in a rental car, truck needs a new passenger side and it ripped the rear axle center pin and all types of fun stuff. Thankfully not my fault but still crappy to deal with.

Buggy..did some changes, addd a front 20" amber, my taillights, better interior lights, chased down a very annoying belt squeak, been wheeling the crap out of it and yes..even going to the mud bogs :doah: went to koh, bounced on the belly a few times on the econd fall after back door..cracked the trans case. It drove back to camp at the end of the night and did some moving in my backyard. But ..she move no longer:whistle: going to pull the trans, have Jason swap the case and change the mount and if it breaks again do the Reid case.

That vid is a nice one:thumb:
