I think DRM was the first person I wanted to get violent with on Pirate. That asshat Tim from Chicago is the second and Larry the Lip is the third.

Louis, I liked it like that too....could not leave well enough alone.

Haha nahh i went with a 48" wide fiberglass one from TC. Funny story...i rolled it the first time i really had the cruiser out rock crawling. Tree caught me in that spot and saved me from a pretty gnarly down hill roll. Somehow the windsheild and everything else came out unscathed. The next weekend it got streched and wheel spaces to make it a little wider.
