Alabama thread!

i say either of these would be winners!!!! unless you wanted to finance a good bit more which i know you dont. tehy would give a good platform to start a build "your way" plus be a good daily driver as well.

 

i did the skyline ride with my uncle in his jeep around this time last year. it has some creek riding (probably alot now with all the rain). we rode two different loops. the first one i think everyone in the group could make pretty easy, but the second loop would be a struggle. there was a stock rubicon that made it but it was tuff for him. you need at least 33's and lockers on the second loop. it was a cool place to ride though.

 

weres the skyline located at sorry just found this thread lol

 

I'd have to look it up. I also have no idea.

 

its in scottsboro. i'm thinking about going up there in march, mainly just to try to find the place again and at least ride the first loop.

 

oh ok ill have to check this out sometime also kyle didnt you say you had the same winch as i did? if so did you seal the seleniod up on yours?

 

Yeah, the guys over at Mud are a good crew. I'd venture a guess that any wheeling they do is probably not prerunner friendly.

Check out the rigs I posted links to. That's the kind of stuff probably 75% or better of the folks over there drive.

 

yea i would say not so prerunner friendly though

 

i am close to slyline... you can actually go into the trails about 15 minutes from my house

All the trails on skyline connect in one way or another. when you go out there let me know. ill ride too. i know the area around me in the woods pretty good. i just got to get my diff leak fixed and ill be good

 

I will let you know when I go, like I said before it will be sometime in march though. Anyway it looks like you might need a couple of weekends before you can go again. I don't wish my daughter getting sick, but it probably saved me some money saturday.

 

You say that, but my truck appears fine... Appears!

 

did your truck even get dirty? lol

 

Yeah I have the same winch minus the rope.. But No I didn't yet.. I got some think as gear lube called Green Gear Lube when I was replacing my T-Case so I plan on doing it soon. While I'm at it i'll do the drive line swap on it and might buy some Synthetic rope to top it off... I'm tired of having that gigantic fairlead sticking out the front of my bumper and that adds a good 40 lbs or more to the weight!

Here.. Check this out..

Damn... I've been on this forum WAY too long! I've got this info subbed off in a different folder and a lot more information to grab at anytime! Comes in handy though for times like these!

He splashed it through that last hole but didn't go in the one I got stuck in..

Props to Alex for wheeling the best! 2wd and WOT!

 

alright guys. almost done with this insurance fiasco. The guy buying it owns a shop (the guy that paints brians grills). Once this is finished, he and I are going to take all the stuff off of it at his shop. Any one wanna help us if and when the time comes? The elusive de-mod might actually happen.

 

YAY! haha thanks Kyle! but it will be fixed this weekend

 

I'll try my best to show up for moral support when it happens..

Same here!!

 

Kyle why don't you just drive on down to dads place and help me and Parker?? haha. great drive for a fix and chill day.

 

The Ms. would KILL me!!! I would other then that though... She's heard enough Tacoma talk for the month already so I have to wait a little...

 

^^^HAHA that sucks dude!

 

lol ya dude I had to break out the big feather duster, and I think I saw a scratch if I look at the paint right...
