Few pictures of my old ranger

[RockRanger]

Here are a couple of me running tanktrap out at hollister hills. It was no fun with no powersteering. Thats what got me into the situation. Also the 2.9 sat there idleing along fror maybe 10 minutes while my buddy hooked the winch line up to get me out.

 

[RockRanger]

here are a few after the bedbob. I hope I can have as many good memories in the new ranger as I did in my old one.

I'll make sure that you do. As soon as I get a 4Runner done I'm not going to be as worried about body damage (or any damage for that matter) as I was with the Explorer. I plan on having some good memories with the new rig.

I tried setting your avatar up....BUT, since you are in a special user group("Brought to you by the letter" if ya know what I mean), it says your allowable avatar size is -1 X -1 pixels. You need to see Rick to change that.

Here is the resized pic I was trying to use.

 

[RockRanger]

Thanks crankcase. Ill pm rick later and try to get it worked out.

you seem to find your self leaning on your side in ditches quite often dont you.

 

[FROADER]

Ya that's true. At least he's fair on weather he or his passenger gets to kiss the ground though. A lot of people keep their own side on the up side.

 

[RockRanger]

I did usually find the driverside on the ground more then the driverside. Luckly the new ranger will have much more wheeltravel and hopefull be more stable so I wont find myself in that situation very often. I was pushing luck before with no cage. Now Im going to try to get a cage in the near future.

That's awsome Matt. I'm sure you meant driverside more than the passenger side, right?
From what I remember you did have more damage on the driverside.
