Project Baby Runner/Mini Crawler: R.J.'s Navajo Build

[carlover]

yeah i think i have around 180k ish on the nav. that trans was the sloppiest trans i've ever driven but it was a trooper. i've got a c5 i can sell you

im not ready to ditch the overdrive just yet lol. once i get a dd/tow rig then im gonna go for it.

Ran the John BUll trail this last weekend with a local off-road group that i know. car did pretty well. nice to have clearance but low range doesn't pull as nice as it used to.

everyone needs to run the johnbull trail. its a lot of fun

the camera died so i didn't get much pictures

That stance is looking great! No CHP getting on your case yet?

 

[FROADER]

Agreed, the stance looks sweet!

Did you put the springs on yet or are those still what you had already?

 

[Burns]

Looking good. I agree with IZ and Froader

Im glad someone is getting to wheel around here cause it sure is not me.

 

[colindo94]

Man, they have been cracking down on mud flap/fender flair violations out here!

I have 3 Explorer drive shafts and don't see why I would need more than one spare.

What I only need one spare????? You shhhhhhhhhhh!!!
I think there are 6 explorer driveshafts up there in my pile, next to like 4 gen I and a few BII.. I have tried to sell some, they are usually the wrong one and the seller walks away! LOL

Good work getting the truck up and wheeling again, I am itching so bad to go wheeling its killing me! the snow is melting, the trucks are locked and ready, we have a new pop up trailer...but the baby is due anyday LOL

truck looks great, and a early 4 runner on 37's = school is in session! those suckers are capable......not fair

 

[R.J.]

thanks guys!!!! everyone needs to get out and off-road! its so much fun.

CHP haven't said anything to me. im not the only one around without mudflaps, everywhere i look i see a huge disco truck with the wheels sticking out farther than mine.

its still 2door springs with warrior shackles. the springs are starting to bend backwards hahaha

 

[cybergasm]

That stance is absolutely wicked

i got a mud flap ticket oh wait that was back in 1993 tho with my old Toy:

how you like the 35's?

 

[R.J.]

how you like the 35's?

they're good and bad.

pros: ground clearance is much better, the ride is smother off-road, looks better witht the car.

cons: gearing isn't as nice as it used to be. i stall the engine more now and can't go as slow. 35's already look to small hahaha

Sounds like it time to get the doubler in there

You went to gorman and didn't invite us?!

 

[R.J.]

You went to gorman and didn't invite us?!

yeah im sorry. three other friends and me. went saturday night, camped, and off-roaded in the morning. only spent like an hour off roading. it was more of a camping trip and i was convinced to go friday night.

if anyone is curious about going to gorman, its not that fun in a car. a motorcycle would be fun. bu not much for cars. and we kept getting in the way of a motorcycle race hahaha.

 

[R.J.]

p.s. i know what your thinking but no, i don't smoke weed. my eyes are just always closed in pictures.

 

[mounty71]

Haha, that last comment.

I was just kidding about not inviting us. Gorman's alright for me because i can do most of the trails there with 2wd. But it's so damn far.
