Idaho BS thread in the PNW

I don't like rock crawling but I have a rock crawler..mind blown

 

it was a comical caps. im not actually mad at this shit. you didnt really think i was did you lol

this is when i have my most fun! i only wish we were around a camp fire now slamming back drinks instead of bitching at eachother on a computer. that would be so much more fun!

 

you act like you'll be inviclible from not breaking CVs with your hamster wheel motor...i assure you..you still could. Once you regear AGAIN! lol you'll have enough torque to still twist a CV apart. won't take much.






also..i am laughing at how active this thread is again now that i am going back to school tomorrow and how dead it was when we were all on break haha

 

its not a challenge though. its just dumb. and he would be stupid to try it.

 

yea Mark never is MAD..just like arguing..haha would be way more fun around a real campfire for sure.

 

Haha okay, wasn't sure! Glad you weren't actually pissed.

If everybody that was on this thread right now was at a campfire/meet together it would make for some great times! Haha

 

wait wat i am fully aware i am very susceptible to snapping cvs
thats why i told brady he will be snapping everything, because as you add bigger tires and use them its more stress. i was saying thats why its just solid axle time. at 37s+

 

They just want to interrupt my scrabble game with Ben

 

yes i know it would!

and i will quote m3fuckstick "ask me how i know"

 

School is in= Need a TW debate with my buds since we aren't in the middle of now where on some trail with campfire..TO THE INTERWEBZ!!


School out = Gone wheeling..come back later bitches




for now we shall continue to entertain the lurkers.

 

Haha definitely!

You pretty much hit the nail on the head haha

 

And this is where we differ and that was all I was trying to point out. Though this explosion of traffic is entertaining

I do want to conquer Helldorado and pretty much any trail I come across (unless said trail is just suicide or something like this crap...)

Mark as in, the Raisin Mark? I am not quite that bad, but at the moment I am prioritizing my funds into improving the capability of my rig before adding the luxuries.

As for your perspective that is just it. It's all personal. Mark, Monte, and I are still young and adventurous and probably a bit wreckless and a bit of work to get the job done is just fine for us for what gains we get out of it.

I am definitely trading some dependency by stepping everything up, but I am ok with what I am giving. I am also doing what preventative maintenance I can in the mean time. Not sure if you are following my build thread, but I have about $500 in gussets to weld onto the front end as well as another 300+ lbs worth of steel for the rear and frame.

I do want to be able to drive mine down the interstate and that is exactly why I am not interested in SAS'ing at all. I can throw an LT kit on the front and not lose any of my DD ability at all really. If anything it might even be safer to drive on the interstate because the extra width makes it harder to roll.

 

37s though are like 35s for us. 35s are NBD for 2nd gens due to stronger CVs

is that code for strip poker via snapchat?

Frank draws a crowd..what can i say..

 

you know it man!

dude we are in a fish bowl and people are just watching out bull shit

we know adam stalks this thread...im sure he as some points to add!

 

funny how it was like this every day for like 8 months when we were all so newbish..haha

 

I think Mark basically covered why a Tacoma is perfectly fine to build into a rock crawler.

I don't want a KOH style rig. I don't plan on hammering it through the rocks like they do. That is just asking to break shit that my IFS isn't built for. I'll have a crawlbox for the rocks to go slow.

 

OK, now we are going to get a definition of "true Rock Crawling" aren't we.

It was actually Brady the put the log on the fire. However, it was you that had the poker and stirred in all up.

 

I would drop it off at a good fab shop and have them 4 link the rear with a 9" and center mount a Currie 9" IFS diff and build it to run 40's and boost the shit out of my motor. haha

 

am i the only one that doesent drool buckets of saliva all over montes truck haha

YES! ABSOLUTELY when schools in we need entertainment. when its out... we all have to work twice as much to afford our expensive hobby of this truck bull shit

brady...300 pounds of steel in the back will kill your poor springs that were designed for susp travel, not holding a shit ton of weight lol

also i want my sas truck to be still street able. bwcause whats the fun of having 42s if you cant cruise through the middle of downtown next to little tiny cars

FUCK IT! 35S BRAH!!!!!!!!!

 

Holy fuck what happened here
