Yay, no more Yahoo picture links!

DOOD! You're alive!!! How are the girls?

Skunk (LizardTrac) and I live 15 minutes from Paragone if you're ever up this way and want to hit some local trails and have some fun

 

[BenS]

Hey Spas! The girls are good. I saw your SAS'd X, nice truck!

 

[BenS]

Rock sliders!

Here's the video of me going over that little falls:

Here's another angle of the same two trucks going up:




Here's one of me going down. This one really shows the value in being locked front and rear because my line went south.

Nice videos, making good use of the rock sliders. Where are those trails you were at?

Glad you enjoyed them. This is all private land that a friend of mine owns.

I finally finished my bumper and mounted my new winch on it. The bumper is all quarter inch plate. Enjoy!

Truck looks good Ben..

 

[Spas]

Nice!! Is that a Pottsy bumper or did you custom make the whole thing?

Its all custom BBB (built by BenS). Special thanks goes out to marktaylor69 who gave me the steel plate I used 6 years ago. That was the day we all went to RC - Blee got a flat, and Mark had tranny problems.

I remember that Are you going to make it to Carlisle/Rc this year?

I'd like to hit RC, not sure if I can make it to Carlisle. Looks like fun though.

I added a Solid differential cover to replace my leaky stock one and replaced all the shocks with Rancho RS5000's. I really like the diff cover, very stout!

 

[BenS]

I finally pulled the trigger on a mod I've been contemplating for some time. I strongly feel this is one of the most effective mods I've made since adding a locker and going to 35's. SOA!

This $120 mod (Ruff Stuff Specialties 8.8 SOA kit) gave me gobs of ground clearance I was sorely lacking. I was sick and tired of banging my under-carriage and getting hung up on the spring hangers. It also has allowed me to relocate the shocks up out of the way. My rear articulation is the ****.

Couple more pics from that RC run and some cool vids from Trail 2:

 

[Blee1099]

Truck looks good Ben.. Hows the kids & wife?

 

[BenS]

They're great. We're expecting our 5th - a boy! We'll meet him in November.

 

[Spas]

Good LORD, man! 5?! You're crazy, lol

You should come wheeling with us for the Halloween run, you could show the newbies how it's done on the trails up here

 

[corkey]

loks good, but i think it needs a bit of front lift,,

hmmm, maybe a sloped body lift for the front,,
