geekhouse23's "LIFE'S WAITING TO BEGIN" Overland & Home build and all the Adventures in between!

Damn Jeepers!!

 

JESSE!!

 

A couple 2-liter coke bottles in a back pack. Driver was a rather hot looking 20-something red head in a very short dress. Meth tweaker no doubt....

 

Took another trip down to the Badlands off-road park with a few members across a few different Facebook and TW groups!

Got to test out the full potential of the Prinsu roof rack like never before..wheelin' with an RTT


We always end up here...


Rolled in after dark Saturday night as we had to make a pitstop at @NwiTACO for some bumpstops and additional leaf on my brother's recent Chevy swapped rear.. Here are some Sunday morning pics..




Trail shots!!



























4D's and 60's/Tons next?


@NwiTACO at the mall..doing mall things..


@GARSHA91 flexing his new rear..





I have to say, the shackle flip rear versus 63 swapped rear is pretty closely flexed

Overall, very happy with the performance of the truck..I was nervous to do some of the bigger obstacles as my center of gravity was much higher and I didn't want to risk breaking anything..time to show the wife that a trailer would be a smart investment.

Great weekend, met some great, new people that I would be happy to go back with anytime. See ya guys on the next one!

 

You should come out to Rausch with @NwiTACO at the end of this month to the NTC Takeover

 

Think mine rides better though

 

I think I'm seeing 63's in my near future

 

Why? I'll go SUA before I do that swap

 

Why is that? I can see the 63 swap being more beneficial around here than SUA....you get a shit ton of flex from them and if you add a shackle flip that's even more.

 

The amount of flex in question is negligible. You can do everything you want in a rear set up with what you have just as easy.

Get your flip done and youll see!

 

Btw @geekhouse23 so jealous of the badlands, would love to be there!!

 

Well if you are going to benefit from them at all you must go through the bed and run a 14" if not 16" shock. SUA gives you just as much, if not more, flex than 63's and you don't have to do a ton of fabricating for them. Yes some is involved but not nearly as much.

And you need to research a lot more about them.. Trust me

 

Mall curbs getting tough, huh?

Come on down brother!!

 

I guess I need to step my research game up

 

So I have been sitting on this mod for a while after coming up with a solution for lighting in the RTT that is temporary and easily removed when the tent comes off the roof rack..here is what I came up with:

I found this on Amazon for $10..and a couple zipties later, voila!

#RTTProblems..

 

You mean I can come hang with the cool kids?

I have been considering a roadtrip to Overland East some time..there's no Midwest events like that unfortunately..

How is it with 4 vs. 3 leafs?

 

Haha yeah man. Should be a big meet and a good time. Rausch is an awesome offroad park with all types of terrain for all kinds of difficulties.

 

Coming to the overland expo in October?

 

It's still about he same ride.

 

Looks WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better though..
