    Has anyone been to Kirwin Wy? It's an old abandoned mining town west south west of meeteetsee. Not a technical trip by any means but pretty cool pictures which I don't have ready yet, and some very cool buildings with really neat history.

    Went last summer with @Blackdawg, @MissBlackdawg, @IDtrucks, and @Digiratus. Arrived in a snow storm, but was still pretty cool for those of us who got out of the trucks.

    Been several times. Super cool. Water crossing in June can be intense.

    Thats pretty sweet..




    I went for a hike today. My Camera decided that it doesn't like SD cards anymore...so that sucks. phone photos instead. Drove up a few roads that were cool.

    Thats the Beartooth Hwy

    Then of course I had to fix something. Had no tools, no OSK. Nothing. Opened the hood as I had aired down as the first trail was much rockier than expected. Battery tie down had lost a bolt. Battery was in the alternator.

    Found a ratchet strap and came up with this. Think its actually stronger than the normal tie down haha

    Unless you have a very different suspension from stock, you can fit 10's vertically and fully cycle them. I'm more or less doing it. When I'm statically drooped I have 3/4" left in the shock. My up travel is limited by my bumps. You can get 10" Kings made to be 2.1" shorter than there generic measurements with the over the cylinder top cap and welded rod ends.

    Getting a new frame on Friday!
    I watched a few time laps videos on youtube for frame swaps and honestly feel a little nauseated at the amount of work that is involved. I drove to CO to get it done just because they have done more of them.

    Nice. New frame is always good.


    @turbodb what bolts did you use on the front lip of your skid that attaches to the bumper? I got new bolts for my akod but they are too small for the nuts in the bumper but fit the stock nuts on the truck..
