    Well he was calm through most of the trail. Then on the way back he said something along the lines of Wyoming beating the piss out of a truck. Then we started going faster and some more grumpy mumbling. I was screaming like a lil girl.

    You'll probably need 1'' spacers at least to keep a 35 off the frame still though.

    I like destroying my truck one challenging obstacle at a time, not driving over rough bumpy ass cluster fuck trails for days on end. no challenge in that, just destruction

    would be similar to dragging most of you through the rock trails out here with me. many would get frustrated and sick of it haha
    just take my approach! cut out and tub most of the fire wall from the get go and you should be good! With both of you working it would still take 2 solid days as long as nothing went wrong.

    im not a puss lol. y u bringing me down brah
