dood, those tires won TTC on that big red jeep, they can do anything :awesomework:

I hate to say it, but at TTC that red jeep spanked a nitro injected big block chev powered old ford truck with comp cut 44 inch boggers in the mud pit.

but hey wat do I know. stupid heavy tire, guese it wont work.:booo:

good thing, they only cost me as much as one bogger.:fawkdancesmiley: :fawkdancesmiley: :fawkdancesmiley: :fawkdancesmiley: :fawkdancesmiley: :fawkdancesmiley: :fawkdancesmiley: :fawkdancesmiley:

I think you need thicker exhaust pipe coming off those flowmasters.

thicker or larger diameter?? jeff would only sponser half of my exhaust materials. the rear half was a olds 98 3inch drive shaft.:redneck: hence the balanced on the left. the flows are 3 inchers just like the pipes. this motor doesnt need them bigger. I picked up a pair of 4 inch flowies at the enumclaw swapmeet this yeay for $20 bucks,:cheer: but there going on my blazer someday with a nasty 327 ive got.:awesomework:

mostly just wanted it loud as hell.:redneck:

loudest was my suburban 6 years ago. I ran 3 inch duels and headers to a pair of flowmasters. the flows were single 3 in, duel 2.5 out. four 2.5 inch tailpipes out the back. man that was sweet (LOUD).:haha:

some pics of the new tires and beadlocks. these things are a PITA!!! getting the inner hoop in the tire is a real workout. looks a little better. I should get the rears done tomorrow. :awesomework:

CHOP SHOP · Dec 15, 2007

got the rears done today. the fronts had not lost any air last night. lets hope Im as lucky with the rears. Im gonna have to cut the rear fenders too. the rig weighed 6300 lbs with the 46 inchers. Im gonna weigh it again tomorrow with the new rubber for comparrison. my goal was to keep it under 7000 lbs. maybe a little shakedown run across the street. maybe some action shots tomorrow.:redneck:

pony up the loot for something cooler (more steel) Ill put a Hansen Windows sticker in the window if you want to sponser me.:cheer:

this is all I could come up with for free. (rears are army water trailer fenders) plus after 10 years of cleaning the rear window.

uke: I dont care what it looks like back there. i never pulled myself out with it, so I guess i dont have to see it much back there.:redneck:

the truck will get a headache rack (cuz 7000 lbs will kill you) and a little more tubing and probally put a 20000 lbs PTO winch in the rear. ever wonder why it looks like a strange tow truck? that cuz it doesnt seem to get stuck much, but when others see this thing they seem to get stuck that much more. people will run in anything if they know theres an easy pull to be had. still have to get the bumper on the rear too.

BLING IS NOT A FACTOR ON THIS BUILD:awesomework:

do u have plans for my 46's?? $800 wheels and tires. I have a fifth for a spare for extra. these are the same size/style they ran on the ultimate adventures superduty.

uhohhotdog151 · Dec 16, 2007

800 eh? id have to pick those up, but i dont have the rig or the axles yet. maybe if you have them in the spring.

CHOP SHOP · Dec 16, 2007

some pics from today. tires seem to clear with a little trim in the rear. this thing is fun with a spool in the rear! I am still getting used to the short wheelbase (it spins around quickly!). it seems to be working so far.:redneck:

No. I got him mixed up with ANOTHER big orange truck that I pulled out of the mud bogs in Buckley. He busted his rear drive shaft and front axle and didn't have a winch. I hauled this guy (Scott) out to his trailer and then had to winch him up on to his trailer.

Fullywrecked · Dec 16, 2007

You should put a camper on it. I think the tires Might be load rated enough to hold the weight........maybe. If you want duals for the rear I could hook you up.

I ditched the strange fender tails and installed a rear bumper and connected it to the fenders with a tube on each side. then I sheeted it in. still need to attach tow points and tail lights.:awesomework:
