NYCO's '06 Boosted Blue Betty

yea I learned my lesson about wheeling with glass bottles in a cooler… once the ice melted and everything started sloshing around they all broke.


no problems now with the arb fridge though



bottle opener mod looks good man!

 

Thanks buddy. :jelly: of arb fridge. I need one bad. 4 days on trail for north rim is not possible with ice cooler

 

Sure it is. Just need them nice deep freeze Texas cooler wesawat the Expo. But really I just want a fridge. :-D

 

Since I'm not baller enuf for a fridge I just tote a bigger cooler and line the bottom with several half gallon or similar size frozen water bottles. Lasts for several days. More so that ice blocks because the water makes the ice melt where the ones in plastic bottles stay frozen much longer even with the bouncin around.

 

saw you mentioning CO's in Tyler's thread. I'm running the King CO's (non extended travel tho) from DSM with the 14" 700 lb spring also if you wanted to look back at pictures or remember how my truck was sitting when we got together this fall.

 

and you also have little preload?

edit:

is this where you still sit?

 

marc you making it down to moab in may too?

 

That picture you posted is when I first put the CO's on and those have the 600lb on. I only have 3 threads showing of preload on driver and 1 thread showing on passenger now with the 700lb coils.

I hope to be in moab this year!! It's on the calendar but with job changes and such who knows what will be available for time off come may...

 

it'll be warmer than idaho falls camping in november i swear

 

so my roommate got me the arb bumper mount bottle opener for christmas


good thing I didn't order one after seeing your bottle opener

 

Curious to see that mounted.

 

YOU JUST DONT LEARN DO YOU
BOTTLES = POOOP ESPECIALLY ON TRAILS

 

I've never had one break. Cans suck!

 

THEN YOU DO NOT WHEEL HARD ENOUGH OR
YOU HAZ SUPER DUPER SHOCKS
ASK JOSH HOW HIS BOTTLES MADE OUT

 

BUBBLE WRAP.

 

had to work in grand junction today...so i turned the shitty work drive into a great day...swung by ben's place in junction to see his masterpieces being built first hand then took the scenic route over to crested butte where i sit now...

few pics from today...

exploring the dominguez escalante region...

bridgeport road









then took a side "road" over to a different area where i found a fun off-road trail down through a canyon

 

pics from the trail down to dominguez canyon













had to get creative at the exit finding a way across the tracks...a lot of atv'rs just went under the bridge...most other vehicles you could tell turned around...there was a path across the tracks though..



and found out muddy tires on a track crossing can be bad


brings you down to the river

 

then took the scenic route from delta to blue mesa on rt 92
