Chandler's Battleship of Doom

Leaving the 35, When I borrowed @G.T. wheel I threw it on the swing out to see what it looked like. To me its just too big for the swing out, I'm afraid it would get hung up too much and cause damage from constant hits. I still want a full spare but I need to do some brainstorming before I commit to something, for now the 35 will be just fine for a spare.

Plus it allows me to sell the wheels without the odd colored one, ill just keep that one

 

DIRTY 7sssss

 

Figure something out so I can steal the idea. So far I can only come up with strapping it standing up in the bed.

 

Id guess the fronts are similar lift wise but your rear end is much more without weight compared to mine

 

Thanks man

Yaaas

 

For those hardcore EAF guys, what do you normally eat on a trip. I need to get a good idea what ill be eating for 2-3wks. Usually I'm pretty bad about food, normally big meal before a trip and snacks until I get back to civilization in the past I went 3 days on cliff bars and wheat thins, I was fucking starving and smashed nearly everything on the menu at A&W in Blanding UT after that trip

 

Probably on the rear. Mine is jacked, ha.

Oh and you need to get a RC car with me so we can wheel after we are done wheeling. Axial bomber. Look it up

 

Me personally (military background mind you)

I carry a shit ton of hot dogs, buns, potatoe chips, water/gatorade, MREs(meals ready to eat) for back up

Trail mix normally does me over during the day until i can get to my hot dogs.

You gotta keep it simple when you're out, you'll find yourself getting caught in the weeds when you start trying to make a new meal every other day and shit.

 

Cup of noodles is quick and warm in the mornings, along with sausage and eggs. At night I take hot dogs, hamburgers or steak.

 

U have a fridge? If so just go shopping like you're going for the week at ur house, biggest perk of truck camping! Eating normal or better than normal

 

I'd do sandwiches for an easy lunch. Then plan a decent dinner. Brats/hot dogs/hamburgers/chicken with a side or two. Switch it up by making some Mac&cheese or other pastas since they don't take much space. After a week of hotdogs, a nice Mac&cheese is a rejuvenation.

 

Hahah I've been wanting one of those, cheaper than what I thought it would be so thats a good maybe. You already buy one?

Yeah I usually bring MREs as a I fucked up meal and gotta walk a good ways for help. Good call on the gatorade, hot dogs I might pass on lol

Noodles would be good, I don't have to keep them in the cooler which would be a plus.

Yeah I got a fridge but I usually eat out 90% of the time. My fridge at home usually only has beer, water, milk, soup, and left over pizza

Yeah I'm not trying to eat the same of anything for a week straight. Mac n cheese/sandwiches/pasta/hamburger sounds pretty easy and shouldnt take up too much room all together

 

Not yet, think I'll pull the trigger in a week or two. Gotta add a battery and charger to the cost though

 

Of course you do lol Another expensive hobby. I need to buy a bunch of shit for the bike still

 

Screw MRE's. Each one is like 2500 to 3000 calories.

 

@SjTacoSharks your goal for 2017

 

Spaghetti is super easy and delicious. If you don't need meat you don't even need to refrigerate anything. Then the obvious smokies and buns. Jerky is the best snack. We do Baked potatoes and corn on the cob wrapped in foil and thrown in the fire a lot. Lots of eggs for breakfast. Pre make some chili is good, fajitas over the fire is my favourite and pretty easy. Endless options really! If you have a fridge you are set

 

Id like to be out there by 10-11, I think I might leave after this weekend if I can get all this shit done and make sure everything is good to go. But depending on weather and whatever else I might end up in AZ earlier

 

Excited to see how these 37's handle Offroad. If I'm going to be worried about anything when I do mine it's hard offroading. So far on all the trips we've done this year it's just been giant rocks/boulders crawling over.

 

There's no other way, ha

I don't have any bike plans other than rebuild the 250. Then focus on the truck
