Dude, you should have seen it from my perspective 'cause the right front tire was CRANKED over into that tree. That's when I started callin' over channel 5!!!


Atleast, you didn't stall yours going down.... Stupid ledge.

As I sit here in Starbucks in Kuwait waiting to cross into Iraq the PNW is a site to see. Looks like a blast was had by all. I look forward to meeting ya'll and putting a face to screen names.

i forgot about corys (drysuperfly) bumper mishap, hes started died and he needed a pull start. I think lack of mounting points was the cause of failure.

Nice pics!! Looks like a good time! I'd love to try something like this but don't think my little runner would make it, although if I follow the Turog I might make it a little ways.

Bigblue that runner looks so good it makes my heart hurt. I'm hoping to have mine looking like that soon and will use your pictures as inspiration.

No kidding? That's impressive. Those pictures make it look like I'd have to SAS'd on 35's and double locked to get anywhere near there. That gives me hope!!

Thanks man, it's been a looong time in the making. It doesn't flex so much, but for 35's on IFS it'll gettr done!!

85RunnerDad is only running 31" ltb's but he locked up the week before we did the run I think. All the rigs did great and we were all runnin hard! Except me, I was too busy enjoyin the scenery!!! Plus, I had to slow it down for the Toureg to keep up and make it all seem "easy" ehehheehe-

Theres almost always easy lines for the stockers, Vitaly did a very good job getting his truck through that stuff. If you could fit 33's and weld your rear you could keep up with almost anyone. If you live near slippery trails TSL's, LTB's or SX's are the only way to go.
