Kevin (Reptilikus) and I went to Rausch on sat.
Was kind of last minute, but have not been wheelin
since Nov, so needed to get out.

This was probably the limit oif how far I can go and
not go over. As usual, it's a lot steeper than it looks in pics.

Kev managed to wack a rock trouncing through some muddy areas
and created a leak, even with the double beadlocks.

This used to be a pretty decent obsticle, but the park was forced
to clearcut this entire area, essentually ruining these trails.

Poser pics...

Ended up running some greens/blues with 3 guys we never met.
To make it interesting, Kev and I ran them in 2WD, which was
fun, but it did suck down a whole bunch of propane. Hit one trail
that has the mudhole "milkshake" on it.

ONE TIME EVENT, see it here only, the mogster in the mud. :brownbag

Kev stuck on some pebble that I had just driven over. :haha

His ARB pressurizing the diff again.

Got clearance??

Decided to run the gauntlet, not sure if I ever have before.

Thats my limit for flex me thinks........

Kev on one of the comp obsticles that had not been "coated"
in concrete yet.

Then on another comp area (I didn't even try this one, would have been roll city most likely).

Almost trashed that half door (AGAIN!!!)

Rare siting of kev getting air under a tire

Flexed so much on that one he ripped off the inner fender.

Crappy vid as I was trying to spot and vid.

We ran about 17 miles of trails total.
Awsome day with a lot of ground covered
when you have only 2 well built rigs to
worry about.

nice day ox. wish i would have been there. not that i could have done half of that stuff, but still...great day of wheeling.

 

[mytoytrd]

nice pics guys, i'm lookin' forward to the trip in june. are either of you two goin' to the fullsize ride on april 18th? i think most of us will be stickin' to greens and blues but if you wanna join we can also park and watch you guys do some harder trails.

We took it pretty easy, since I didn't want to roll and rep didn't want to break.
You could have run most of what we ran all day I think (we hit very few, if any, red areas),
maybe just not at the pace we ripped through many of the trails.

I'm not going anywhere until I can find someone to patch and vulcanize the sidewall on that 42 I blew out, otherwise I have no spare.
I tried to fit the 44's but they are just too big without more lift.

Yeah you wouldve had a ball Dave. It was an awesome day, and we ran lots of trails that neither of us have ran in years. This was a test-ride for my anti-wrap bar & new coil springs too, so it worked out well.

mytoytrd,
I cant comment on the 18th. Work is crazy slow right now, border-line layoffs, so theyre mid-swing in changing their whole weekend scheduling rules to save $$$ (normally we run 24/7), which means no new schedule, which means i dont know if im working that weekend or not.

 

[Bob G]

nice looking rigs there

 

[Hopper]

What new coil springs? Did you get some of the new heavier rated Superflexes? Impressions?

 

[AcePaul]

Thanks for the pics OX, can't wait to get down there again.

 

[reptillikus]

Thanks for the compliments on the rigs Bob :thumbup

Paul, cant wait to go wheelin with ya in june!

What new coil springs? Did you get some of the new heavier rated Superflexes? Impressions?

Yes, and so far love em. i will start a thread in the SAS with my opinions on both either later today or tomorrow.

Looks like Pizza Rock.

That sucks that they had to clearcut the area, there were some nice trails there.

Looks like an awesome trail ride.

 

[reptillikus]

It is. Hard to believe these two pics are of the same place

 

[bnkrtstk]

That's enough to make the baby Jesus cry.


I wonder if I would have ended up on my roof if it was like that the day of my mishap:brownbag

 

[reptillikus]

Me & Ox were joking about that. Whyd he go over (and then over, lol) when he couldve just gone around? :histerica

 

[Thomas21407]

nice lookin trucks!
