I was outside today doing some yard work and cleaning up some of the winter mess. It was about 50, with a strong breeze but man I had a strong urge to wheel. Maybe it was because I was doing chores

Sunshine is still getting some work done so I couldn't even if I had some place to go.

Anyone else really really feeling the temptation?

Yes.

I did a hub-bearing last night (it had about 3/16 play in it from side to side) and thought, "Man, I wish this was actually from wheeling and not commuting."

big time

i need to wheel, i just hope i get out more with the club this year.

I went out to some private property that I have access to. The owner loves to go mudding through it. It is not wetlands or anything just nice and muddy in the spring. He met me out there and now my jeep isn't white anymore.

For over 3 years now....

I'm dying to wheel. Easter Sunday I installed a locker in my front axle and I haven't even been able to test it out. If anyone is going out this weekend and wants to bring me along, let me know.

I'm getting a strong urge to return to a 100 post count daily average on neow.

I yealded to temptation, it was good.

Its not much just enough to get muddy. Takes all of 20min to go though.
You truck is at Wilards right.

Maybe I'll take it tonight

You're my hero right now.

I'm doing a new clutch, head pipe, Thrush (saving 6 year old one for a spare), transmission and lots and lots of red paint.



Oh, and a serpentine belt on my wife's car

I have to have them measure it at the parts store when I finish getting it off.

Oh, I might have to try the new parts out this weekend...

I hope that wasn't your poor snake

You're getting the itch>? I've been wheeling the Hyundai every day trying to get home up the dirt/mud roads

no, random internet pic i got in e-mail and saved for times like these when I want to wheel

Goshdang, my pass front axle is a small u-joint spare someone loaned me last october, gotta get to that, too.

Scott,
Are the class 6 roads closed for mud season? I really wanna hit that road next to the ski slopes again.

Mrfreakinwhite,
Whats up with the banshee? That thing would show what quads are all about.

That road is going to be a river with the run off from the slope

I just read this at work and busted out laughing. The 2nd shift guy was like WTF?????

It sure is brother. Tell Steve I said you could take it for a joy ride!

I've actually had more of an itch to get out on my quad and blast through the woods at 60mph instead of crawling around like a turtle.

I just hooked up with some buds and scheduled a couple of camping/riding trips up north after mud season. 100+ miles a day riding. Freak'n Awesome.

Sunday, maybe.

"duh"

Can I wheel my 2500HD?

No. It's a full size and it's too big for "Jeep trails" in New England.

Damming Redneck fullsizer......

The banshee isn't mine, but it is older and getting a lot of work done to bring it up to date. Motor rebuild, J arm to A arm conversion, sprocket, plastic trimming and stuff.

I'm coming down the home stretch on my rig, which is good because I just sold my Olds Gutless DD right out from under me and I'll need a ride home.

$100 over budget but I just have to bleed it out and test it. Oh, I had to shim my wheeled twice cross member because it was bent up in the middle (again) and I couldn't straighten my Rusty's drop x member (3/16"s) back into shape.

A4A (maybe) and wheel Sunday??

I am not allowed to get my Redneck hat and pointy boots.

Better not be an "upper decker"

I forgot all about your love note till I found it today Jeff. I busted out laughing. Made my day.

I didn't have much time to put that togther we had 3 acidents that day. I'll try to work on a better version. Ok sunshine

speaking of wanting to wheel, spent part of the day over at Field and Forest speaking with Gretchen and coordinating for Sunday....itching to get on the rocks there.

WOW, what a busy day today....lots of wheeling work done I love my job, no pay...but rewarding none the less

sunshine SHOULD be ready tog o for the weekend. Man I hope so. I'd love to bring it to the meeting and play in the mud.

Sunshine is not doing so good. Leaking from pretty much everywhere, including a tire. She's been seeing a lot of work as a yard truck recently while my sister and bro - in - law renovate their house. I'm sure she's picked up a nail or 2.

The good news is I have started collecting the parts to rebuild her bigger and better then before.

1 Ton axles with 4:56's - Check
350 TBI motor with only 73K - Check
Need to find a flat bed, or have one built.

My jeep's been sitting at the body shop for 3 weeks now and it's killing me.

Here's my son helping me move my tires.

Great picture Joe.

That is a cool pic. I just bought some MT's and I love them.

Hi Max....

I'm just posting again cause I love my new avatar.

Hi Max....

I like 'em too. They grab rocks/stumps like little fingers. I run 35's and 38x15.5 (the one Alex is in).

Yeah, except you should have moved the cursor a little when you drew it. Your truck isn't that straight.

Hey Max. You going to the F'Crawl???

If Max is going he better sign up right away. We are almost full except for trail 1 and 2.

Mine are just little 31's for now. The only thing I don't like about them is they are much louder than my Trxus. But for the unbelievable difference in ride and performance, I can put up with the noise.
