Here's a couple shots from me and a buddy of mine out at Brushy Creek. It was a good run. Dana 60 = Beef. I was quite happy neither of us had any driveline carnage this weekend...despite me giving it hell out there.
I'm in the white blazer, and my friend Thomas (member: Tom4) is in the blue. He's runnin 1 tons, detroits, 5.38's, propane, th350(with a manual valve body), hydro assist, winch, etc. Rockin truck, it did really well out there.
My truck did alright. My new carb floods pretty easily which is ultra ghey, but I'm gonna work on that. Also, I think my g80 out back quit workin. It always sucked, but I could seldom get it to engage when I needed it to. Ah well, I'll make friends with Lincoln.
Here's pretty early into the run. Thomas got hung up for a minute till I realized he had only locked 1 hub
Testin out the Boggers for the first time. Bastards dig like crazy
Also you might be able to see that the license plate area of the bumper is bashed in. I was goofin around and got caught up sideways in some ruts in 2wd. Popped it in 4wd and the truck launched out of the ruts and into a tree hahaha. Also hit the hood. You can see the bark stuck over one of the digits of my license plate.
Then one pain in the ass stuck. Right rear tire just dug and dug and dug. Had to winch quite a bit to get out of that. Winches are awesome lol.
Sorry for the lack of pics, everyone that went was having too much fun ridin along to take many pics. Both of us took on water in the cab for the first time. That was interesting...wish I had gotten pics of us doin it. I ended up with a decent amount of body carnage, but neither of us had any driveline damage or other pain in the ass happenings during the stucks.
