meaty taco build --- lets do this

Such a fun place--- wish we spent more time here. Was still too colder in early May.

 

Anyone know what this shirt means?

 

What's up Bluff Utah

 

First night camping just outside Manti la Sal National Forest just across the border in South Eastern Utah. Blanding directly south of us. I slept in my smaller backpacking tent. Chopped some wood that was dead, Used an existing fire pit but didn't make too big a fire as it was really windy. Chilly night for sure but not bad. We drove up for a while to get to this spot.

 

Love them rocks!!!! and holes

 

This place is just a crappy store with odd gifts and overpriced imported junk. Some local stuff but not much-- Peep the Jeep up top?

 

Is your Rotopax 3 gallon?

 

Drove straight to Moab and to Hell's Revenge-- Rode right up at 7:30 pm to the trail and hopped on it. Forgot to air down but sun was already coming down so we aired down a bit and did about 1/5th of the trail. Was actually the only time my buddy did Hells Revenge with us in his Jeep he ended up leaving a bit early.

 

I forgot I'll go look in a few-- It leaks way too easy.

 

Not lots of pictures but I'll post some videos too in a bit-- uploaded to Youtube already. Just realized one had over 34k views. Mickey's Hot Tub.

 

Headed out to Hells Revenge after some breakfast at the campsite. Here are pictures of the entire day -- Did the whole trail and lots of fun obstacles. Didn't take tons of pictures as I was driving and we didn't get out a lot except at Mickeys and Hells Gate---- Side NOTE: DID THIS WHOLE THING OPEN DIFF. hence why I stalled twice going up. shame ... lol

I'll be back second week of May! Anyone else going then?? Planning on camping up on Fins n Things trail-- several awesome campsites there


















I honestly haven't wheeled much up until this trip. It was awesome to have people up top watching me do the trail and cheer us on. Shout out to the random guide that walked me through it up top!



And straight to Carwash and then Mickey's Hot Tub







Shoutout to Ian--- was a random guy and now a buddy I still talk to often. Bounty Hunter turned Guide. He's a Moab local. Wild man for sure! Realized after dropping in that I hadn't locked my Diff. So once I locked it I climbed out much easier. I was suuuper long in there for sure and my tires weren't gripping well. I gunned it to get out and spun the tires a bit.

 

Mickey's Hot Tub Clip -- Dropping In and then getting out.

Shout out to @CaliRaisedLed for the sliders that are essential for sure.

 

Just snagged this Dana 60. Off a 05 superduty 250.
Paid 200. Not bad!!!

Can you say SAS?

 

Hell yeah. That’s why I got it. Finally have it settled. Making a cart to move it around tonight. Traded my neighbor for a plasma cutter to use for a few days. Wiring a 220 extension from my oven in an hour too. Gotta start getting rid of these bump stomps and control arm brackets

psyched. I’ll see you on 21st Mike @WarFab Armor

my neighbor has about 40 diesels. 250s and 350s. And 8 spare axles. No worries finding them anymore. And I’ve got him all pumped up about a 6.7 diesel taco or 4Runner. Thoughts on which I should start looking for rollers?

 

Snagged some stuff from Lowes to make an extension cord for my welder

 

I'll keep my eye out. They are all over Dallas and my neighbor has a ton.

 

Yeah. Leaks tho.. Not a fan. Would rather have Jerry cans

 

before and after - May 2020 -- May 2022





Swapping for the warthog in the next month. Have to get a 7.3 running and 91 izuzu rodeo sold.

 

i am a year behind on posts and things i've done. lol

Sold the Victory front -- made a post in DFW Tacoma group and sold it in 10 hours or less. I need to find the cover for the winch and I'm good.

Will either install the Warthog today or tomorrow @WarFab Armor

 

I just purchased the Victory Front Strike for my 2009 turned 2012 (2.5 Gen Conversion). Just curious why you decided to sell your's.
