    ALL OF THEM!...Then some more.
    Well i just got back from Lander. Only Jonathan(45acp) and i showed up.

    Funny story about that thought. So there the two of us are just chilling at a gas station when we spot a regular cab 2nd gen with a plate bumper drive by and park down the block. We decide to go investigate the truck and lo and behold its a nice truck. The owner came out right as we were leaving and we introduced ourselves and told him about TW. He new TW already he said and was just a lurker mostly! lol But after we told him about me meets im pretty sure he will be come an addict just like the rest of us haha

    So Jon and i recruited someone a 2:30am lol And a good thing we did..

    Turns out the weather was total shit as most of you have prolly noticed. Well it snowed up on the mountains and rained for 2 days everywhere else. So our trails were impossible to go on due to 5-7'' of snow :( LAME!!

    BUT..remember..we recruited John :cool:

    So we call him up and he takes us out to a lower elevation area...in other words..a mud hole haha The trip literally became a mudding trip...Not really what we planned but was fun none the less! Jon is getting home later i think and has much better pics then i do, and some vids :cool: But here are all of mine! They suck as my camera sucks..sorry lol

    Also..my truck looks really odd in most these pics :notsure: i mean i know my tires are too small..but they aren't that small..i am glad i had the KM2s tho..like..WOW..

    First arrival..getting outa the rain. Really wish i had a topper this weekend..

    which turned to mud in a matter of minutes..
    PA081558_7df6bba3b2ce6265c5d6ed8215e8f44b5aeff234.jpg

    then to slush..

    PA081559_ea172cd87c24cd76967308af4f0b83e284ad982b.jpg

    Then to snow..

    PA081562_02707609b8f3b0310ca36ab5fc70f34eb32cf6a4.jpg

    Jon actually almost got stuck when we were turning around. Sadly i dont have any pics of when we were up high and in the deep snow :( sorry.


    Then John met up with us for a bit but didnt have enough experience or MT tires to make it far enough to come play with us. However we are very grateful he showed us were to go!

    Is that a elite bumper you have. If it is that bumper looks bad on your truck. Time for some lights to fill in them holes. When ever I get some more money going with elite or M.O.B.S fab. They are located in Concord, NC, thats not to far from where im from. I got to have some protection from the deer when they jump out in the road. lol

    im not made of money man. And yes it is the Elite. And no it does not look bad on the truck. I just have major rake right now which is why it looks bad. Once i get the rear bumper and sliders it'll be fine.

    No. I like it. Them bumper looks good, I got the same model truck and I would love to put a bumper like that on there. Just dont want the front to have a major rake, like the front 2 inches lower than the rear. Which right now my front seats higher than the back by 1/4". I got 5100's and eibach with 2" aal in the rear and im on 33x12.50r15x8 duratracs. and dont rub just had to hammer the pinch weld down a little

    You wont see much if any rake with the ribs us. That's what I run and I didn't see much change with mine and the bumper. I have bad rake due to 4.5" of rear lift cause of my stuff leaf packs. Due to the fact ill have a ton of extra weight in the back
