Big green remodel

bigiron · May 28, 2009

Well after my flop I have decided to change a few things inside....first is some tubing then I am replacing my shifter Z gate now with a magnum grip pro stick...also ordered a set of prp seats from those guys customs that will match the trucks colors a little better..... and keep my 5 points where they are easy to use.

Seats are ordered and will be 2 weeks, thanks for the business.

Thanks Pat.....I will talk with you more about possibly building a chassis when the seats show up :awesomework:

Still waiting for the seats should be tues or wed next week but Masterpull sent me a couple ropes that I ordered at the core event....just need to spool them up and change my fairleads to hawse style

I did that mod with my shifter and it works great. How much do those lines go for? Id like to get some weight off the front end.

call Emil at masterpull and talk with him 360-714-1313......He will treat you right....I do not want to say what I payed as it was a special price for the core event and discounted for buying 2 ropes.

Yes there is a considerable difference in weight.....that is not my goal..... mine is saftey as the recoil on cable vs rope when it breaks.....this rope nearly falls to the ground...... where the cable puts everyone in danger that is within reach of said cable from recoil when it snaps. also the fact that the rope will not turn to **** from your line digging thru what is on the spool of the winch.

You'll probably drop 40-50 lbs off the front of yer truck by switching to rope...and it's way stronger when comparing same sizes...rope vs cable...:awesomework:

I want to know more about this rope. How is it made? Will it do the same job as cable? Is there someplace I can see a demo of it? Other than Kelly dragging a hulk out of a trail....
