Run to the Hills! - Jason's Completely Stalled Colorado GTFO Build

The one I'm touching should be ground. It's so hard because of the way Arb makes the harness ha

 

Thanks, Mike!

 

I feel like your missing a compressor there

 

NOS, bro!

Just kidding, it's only CO2.

Got my interim CO2 actuated ARB up and running finally! Had to ghetto fab the mounting for the tank, but I'm pretty proud of my sweet rubber sheeting isolation padding, if I do say so myself!

It even turns on! Just need to find a good way to verify that the locker is actually locking...

 

I know a treat way to test it, USE IT! But on my cruiser I tested it by trying to turn with it locked, it becomes really hard to turn. You could just jack it up and spin it too, but that's too easy.

 

I would imagine getting off the pavement, locking it, and trying to turn while driving will tell you what you need to know.

 

Beat me. Ha ha

 

Thanks, fellas!

 

Hmm not sure the zip ties will last the bumps of the kokoplli..

Ran the trail this last week. In good shape. Skipped totw and rose garden this time though due to time and I wasn't going to do rose garden again without a more built rig.

Hopefully you don't encounter too much rain like we did. Cisco wash required winching due to mud

 

Maybe a steel band clamps might be a good option? I don't think rose garden will be an issue if we are going down. Mud is no bueno though haha also if it's jacked up on all 4 in 4wd you should be able to spin the front tire and they will spin opposite directions, and then lock and they spin in same direction.

 

Rose Garden is a big deal no matter what direction you go. Everyone better have belly skids

 

Good to know! So stoked to do that trail. I was hoping it wouldn't be too easy

 

Besides that it's all easy. But very scenic and fun. Best way to drive into moab by far. Could run dome pleatue with it and make it a day and half longer haha

 

That's why I want to make sure the truck is caged before I give anyone a ride with me during jumps. I don't want to get anyone hurt if a ball joint blows up.

 

I saw the pics from Dome Plateau and they were fucking amazing. I would totally be down to spend an extra day just to check that out.

BTW, is the 'Dome' in reference to Upheaval Dome in Canyonlands?

For sure, Ray. I'd feel really really shitty if something like that happened.

Hell, just having my lady with me when we went camping up East Halfmoon Creek made me noticeably more conservative. She has two kids, and the last thing I want to do is get her hurt or worse.

 

Quick update:

I stayed up late last night and trimmed my grill, moved my bumper back up 1", and mounted my winch! Shit turned out awesome!

(As much as I hate to say it, you were right, @Squeaky Penguin)

Pics to follow later this evening!

 

especially since I know I'll need to cut some as well when I get one.

 

It was a fair amount, but I'm super happy with how it turned out! It's still sexy AF!

 

Yeah I figure if done right it would end up looking like the winch is in front of the grill instead of "in" it. Stoked to see it!
