Trail Run Sunday the 27th Butcher Jones

ha my tires are shittt

 

so Alex, how you like the truck?

you need to get that thing off the ground to really enjoy it

i'm looking at super chargers now... my wife is gonna kill me...

 

I love it man. I'm still getting used to the manual but I'm doing well with it. I got it off the ground in Ocotillo wells but i didn't get any pictures. oh while I was out there I stopped at Kartek and picked up a set of triple By-passes for the rear. 2.5 x 18" Fox Pro series, fully extended there are like 43" long. I putting them on tomorrow.

The super charger is fun to have. Sounds good and preforms well. The only bad thing is you have to use only Premium gas or the check engine light will come on.

 

Not stuck, just lost traction. If you would have had better tires you would have made it.

 

detonation is bad, mkay. i was so happy to sale my wrx and buy a vehicle i can't really mod. thats when i realized that i can get a sc for my truck. i can't escape it!!

 

thats what I said up top...dude your duratracs look mean!

 

They came in handy dragging every PreRunner up a hill or two...

 

lol

 

No seriously I had to pull everyone up a hill at least once.

There were a total of 4 prerunners and only one of them was locked in the back...

Next time we go I think it will be 4wd and locked prerunner only. It was really hot out there.

 

yea, but that was nice of you to help em up! But when its 110 in the shade I can see how it'd be frustrating

 

x2 the only one we normally allow not locked is Harrelsen because he is a beast and knows how to drive.

 

Yea I have to agree Butcher Jones is really more locked/4x4 friendly than anything. That said I was extremely impressed with how well the open 4x2 diffs did out there...

 

Yeah Richie and ryan did well out there.

 

nice buy on the bypasses. those will make a huge difference.

you should also look into getting the TC coil bucket gussets for the front. they are a nice piece of mind for the coil bucket and UCA. i have them

 

Yeah I wanted to pick some up at TC but they are closed on Fridays I'll call my guy at Kartek and order them. They aren't that much and I get a discount there.

Do you know where I can find the proper alignment specs at for the front. I know that aren't the same as stock. At least thats what I was told.

 

Figure I'll throw this here till I know more but... sometime on Wed Andrew and I are gunna head back out there again if anyone want's to go. I'd suspect probably meet at QT on Power (going Bush Hwy route) around 10am-ish again.

 

i dont know the alignment specs...

maybe call up TC, thats the best advice i can give... not much help, i know

 

if you can push it out one more day i will go!

 

Sorry no can do... Every other wed is the only chance andrew and I can get to head out due to our work schedules.

 

Thanks Alex, if I do get sand deep, I am sure I can use my body as a hi-lift and pull myself out of the sand.
