    Thanks for the compliments, this has been a fun project and getting the details right has been very time consuming but worth it. I plan to take it down to Bennett Hills north of Bliss/Glenns Ferry to test it out sometime next week. There is a 1yr closure going into affect starts on Jan.1 due to a fire that took place, there is some killer wheeling so I want to run that before it closes. I'm not sure how much longer Little City of Rocks south of Fairfield will be open but that is another spot I want to check out.

    On Moab I am really hoping to make it down but that is a really busy time of year for me with work. I will have a better sense of timing by Feb. and then plan it out.

    More info on the little city of rocks area? I've been to city of rocks climbing, is this little city of rocks in the same area, are there different levels of trails?

    This one is north Gooding south of Fairfield on highway 46, I know there are a couple different "city of rocks" this one is listed on the Shoshone BLM page and from what I hear it has good scenery and rock formations a lot of different roads and a large earthen damn to check out.

    First of all your truck is epic. Secondly, your pictures are amazing. It seems this truck spends more time in the bush than on road. You live in a beautiful area. How often do you get out?

    Finished dog legging the crawler shifter today, really like how it looks like the truck is throwing up shifters. I will need to get some boots made for it. Going to try and finish up a few more things today so all I have to do is put the drivelines in it when I get them tomorrow.

    Holy shit, this thing is low. I picked up the drivelines this morning then spent the rest of the day painting them and finishing the center console and shifters. Put the rear DL in and backed it out of the garage and messed around with it for 20 minutes in the dark in the street here at the house. I still need to install the front DL and do a couple of other things but I'm really close to being done with this project.
