cRaZy oLdmAn invites SoCal Tacomas

Im a certified jeep recovery specialists haha ..I have pulled, winched, rescued jeeps on several occasions lol.

 

Exactly. Jeeps go in narrower places but thats about the line that makes any jeep ive followed different.

Ive taken my tacoma places it shouldve never gone and survived.

 

Have witnessed this

 

If there wouldve been a time that my strap wouldve broke was definetely yanking you out in superstition that day.

 

Absolutely Dave, Leo just left a couple mins. ago & we can do them as soon as you guys get back & if Sat. doesn't work out, then Sun. would be ok, up to you guys....

Manny......" No Goddamned Mexicans on this run " ...... j/k Besides theres probably some out there already waiting for a ride out...

prerunners can still come on out & do TDS, either forward or backwards, its still fun, hell you've been out there a couple times you could lead a group thru it, we're not doing anything over a single black diamond I don't want anything worse than pinstripes for anyone, try to get off for Sunday in ocotillo.esa !!

I was gonna comment Tom but forgot what i was gonna say, but yer right on all points..

OH, I still run around with 50ft length of 7/16"ths chain for those special jobs

 

Sounds good Doug! Yeah if we could do Saturday it would be better for me. Got a busy Sunday going on. I dont think this should take to long to do right?

 

perfect. the one i found at cabelas is a 3" recovery strap with nylon reinforced loops and rated at 27000 lbs. gonna go to 4WP and do my shopping. i should be able to get away with a hitch mounted shackle in the rear, right? and the factory tow loop in the front?

 

saw this....thought I'd share hahaha

 

and as far as harbor freight is concerned, i will never buy anything from there that costs more than $5. as far as tools are concerned, snap-on is the top dog but i prefer the slightly cheaper matco.

 

I had a hitch mounted shackle for a while..only negative thing about it is was it took away departure angles and it would scrap against rocks..so I stuck that sucker on the hitch only when I needed it. Front factory hooks are fine

 

thanks for the advice monkeyproof!

 

Oh boy...good thing for me I am a Tacoma recovery specialist, when I am not stuck somewhere I shouldnt have been in the first place..

I am that guy who says watch this! But not Hold my beer, lol So the outcome is usually positive.

11" of travel on my Heep bitches! And hyd. bumps....Now if I could only figure out how to disassemble them so I can shorten the stroke, broke 2 fuking tools and still wont budge. GGGGRRRRRR!!!!

Thats all I need to to besides charge it with nitro and adjust the springs and collars, then its trial time, I am going to Havasu this weekend possibly with the Jeep if I can get it somewhat finalized, but not so sure I can get the bumps apart! My fox coilovers are simple, these Radco Hyd Bumps are damn tight!

 

Got you beat in travel numbers ..12 inches baby!

 

Hey your link for sir marlon photography is broken in your sig... Not sure how I noticed... lol

 

ill fix it later..

 

you still fuckin' with those bumps ??

 

I'm in for cc and Ocotillo. Sounds like a great weekend!!!!

 

Nice Mike

 

i want to try pj peck again!!!
