this is the earliest picture i have of my runner. i was 14. i don't have any of it on stock wheels and tires. no lift in this pic. 33x12.50 ridge runners on 15x8 rock crawlers



it took us forever to build this rack, but it was well worth the wait. once i started learning how to do it on my own and not depend on my dad and his busy schedule, it takes less than a month now. this is the day that we put it and the lights on



once i learned that mud just tears stuff up, i started to stay away from it and got more into trail riding which eventually led to more and more agressive trails. i'd kill for a SAS

i got on the fork lift and messed around today:


just a little reminder of why i'm going to oak ridge axle shopping saturday... but still i was impressed with what it flexed


i had 3 others, but somehow the camera now says unable to read picture data. dang... looks like i'll have to do it again! haha

axle shopping was a success! now just to sit back and wait... i'm a college student. i hate having wheeling buddies older than me with time and money and jobs! but i guess for now i'll start tearing down slowly but surely.

update. this skid is cut out and bent to shape, the only thing lacking is the holes that need to be drilled. i also ordered my aussie locker this past weekend. i'm stoked to get it in hopefully next week, its on back order but it'll be to the main store monday hopefully.

i also have some windrock pictures i need to throw up on here. i've been so busy with school and jobs that i'm going crazy. this past week was vacation and the beach time wins over the computer time. but i'll get stuff up sooner or later.

i'll FOR SURE get pictures up of the first LOCKED trip. i'm very excited!
