It's 3:15 a.m. here in Ohio and these pics just make me wanna go climb something!!

Beautiful pics!! What's with the red/orange truck missing the front fender flares...is there a 4x4 reason for this or was it a "mishap" reason??

I will be joining some of these exploration by next year...I am awaiting for the funds to support the whole process of lifting my truck to new heights!

The front fenders are flared all by themselves... about 4". They are made by www.perrysfabnfiber.com The truck itself is a '93 and the clip is a '99.

If you haven't alredy seen the buildup check this out: http://www.explorer4x4.com/tech_transform.html

Rick, I'm just glad we got to finish the trip. With the rain at first I was really worried we wouldn't make it down the steep part at the end.

Here are a few picturs we took on the way. If it wasn't for the wind we would have more pictures. If I remember the alt. was 12,113 at the top.

Great Tires!

Rick; those tires make a huge difference in the appearance of your truck. Are they 35 or 37? Performance-wise, are they better than the Claws? I know a guy that was really upset with his 35's that were only 32+ in stature.

 

[Rick]

The Goodyear MTRs are 35s. The 35" Baja Claws measured 33". The MTRs measure 34.5".

They seem to work well so far. I really haven't had them on for that long.

Looks like a pretty scenic trail, did you get any pics of the tough spots?

 

[Rick]

Yeah the photos were taken in the easy areas. The tougher stuff was encountered in the rain and 100+ mph winds. Matt got out of the truck to grab some video and nearly got blown off the mountain!

I would sure like to see that video Perry!
