South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

KM3s. Those things look sweet.

 

They won't be my DD I'll still run 33s and yes 4.88 and lockers will be in the future as well. Just going in steps in preparation for them.

 

4.88 with 33s high RPMs

 

Is that a Unimog?

 

Saved by the snorkel..

It'll help towing the trailer I posted a pic of on Fri. as well! Not too concerned with high RPMs. I just won't be able to go as fast on the Hwy.

 

1st trip to the lake this year and I caught one.

 

let me get yo tires!

 

My kinda picture!

 

Eh not any worse than my old foxbody with 5.30s and a power glide. Hell my old VW GTi sat at 3000 rpm in 5th at 60 and that was stock.

 

Depends on where you are it's hilly here and hauling that big ass trailer I have a pic of I use the tractor trailer method steady throttle gain a ton of speed down the hill and then loose it back up it. It is what it is. I'll experiment once I finally get the gears though and see what happens this is all down the road nothing is happening tomorrow.

 

Sc is more of rolling hills. Nothing serious compared to some of the Cali climbs.

 

Or the Rockies!

 

Thanks for the birthday wishes guys!

 

Yeah I don't know what the highest stuff is here but the grades can get pretty steep and the shortness of our switchbacks in the Appalachians sucks.

 

If you would of waited till the build was closer to being done. I would of sold you mine. But you want stickies to make up for other things

 

I haven't done that area but I have done the Sierra further N and around Yosemite and they were much more than we have here. But you get out to the rockies where you can drive up to 12k ft and man some of those climbs you are so high that the vehicle has trouble breathing. But the rockies are such wide Mtns they make their switchbacks pretty long and less steep they just take forever. Or at least the parts I have been through and on.

 

Only one more inch! You should do the venerable 44s

 

Oh I am just talking Hwy driving lol, Not even hitting the trails. I am not so worried about the trails and 4.88s as I'll be on bigger tires then
