Show Off Your Sport Trac!

*LONO100* · 05-06-2012, 10:45 PM

great pics sport. i just got home from a bbq, gorging myself on meat, and drinking hella beers in the sun and when i saw that bent tree i thought i was just tripping.

dont worry about those rover fools. theyre like the kids that come to the baseball field with a brand new glove that hasnt been broken in yet.

i cant wait to go on our first camping trip into the woods this summer. so far we've only done day trips.

I love Colorado! So much outdoor opportunity, it's unreal, and almost overwhelming!

*OffTrac* · 05-07-2012, 06:34 PM

If the winters were more bearable (to a Southern guy), Colorado would be my first choice of places to live. Made it out there for the first time in '08 and have been dying to get back. It's an outdoorsman's paradise. My parents even considered buying a place near Estes Park after that trip. Unfortunately, that didn't happen (yet).

*Sp0rtTr4c* · 05-07-2012, 09:54 PM

So many great pics by everyone lately.

*LONO100* · 05-07-2012, 11:37 PM

i know the summer is coming around, but i found this one from this past winter. this is near rubicon bay in mid december.

*Sp0rtTr4c* · 05-08-2012, 01:12 AM

Nice, I will always envy your trac. My favorite color for vehicles is white but my trac is silver. Which would have been one of my last picks because I feel like if I put any black on it people will think its a "Raider Nation truck".

Ain't nothin' wrong with silver and black!

EDIT

Today is the day I gave up on the idea of a body lift... way out of my league

*LONO100* · 05-09-2012, 06:33 PM

thanks man, i really appreciate it.

*MidnightRebel07* · 05-09-2012, 07:40 PM

Scope, how is it out of your league? I did mine myself with hand tools in my driveway. I never did a body lift before, I actually had the kit for 7 months before I man'd up and just did it. It was really easy and was one of the best mods I did so far. It makes working on the Trac alot easier with the added clearance.

Idk, the padre is on the fence about it and reluctant to help, all local shops want $650+ to take it in, I read thru the instructions and was ok till I got to the part about trimming and what not lol. And question, how do you raise the body off the frame for this? I'm assuming a jack. I might do it this summer if I can: 1.) get something to take to work while this is being done 2.) get some tires to put on afterwards 3.) find someone to help me!

Just reading the instructions I felt wayyyy over my head lol. If I did it tho, it would be a good time to repaint my cladding and get a new air intake in

Seriously, it scared me too. I thought I would screw something up but it was really easy. I can help you step by step when you install the body lift.

interscope8 · 05-11-2012, 10:43 PM

I'll take you up on that. It was my bday so I have money for the lift, waiting to find some tires for reasonable before I jump on everything

*01STrunner* · 05-11-2012, 10:49 PM

Or you could join me in looking ridiculous for a little while with a body lift and tt/sl with tiny tires while waiting for new ones!

*LONO100* · 05-11-2012, 11:00 PM

hey scope, wait just a month more for tires if you can. you will see a ton of deals, even locally by june summer vacation season. a lot of the deals are a buy 3 get one free type deal. try discounttiresdirect, they usually have good deals

*Sp0rtTr4c* · 05-13-2012, 10:24 PM

Just up the local mountain =)

*01STrunner* · 05-14-2012, 06:39 AM

Looks like a fun day. The shot looking over the water is cool!
