UK wheeling pics!

Met up with Peter in his lifted first Gen and his friend in a Mitishibushi. Had a good day playing on some nasty mud roads. Here's a few pics

Where's the snow?!? I don't remember what grass & mud look like.

Looks like a nice trip though...time for the 4Runner bath.

Corey oh ya I probably sprayed about 30 lbs of mud off the underneath. I have to say I was totally impressed at how much cleaner the body stayed with the flares. I like getting muddy and showing off but it get's old when you can't see out of any of the windows and your trying to turn around on a tight road. That's my only complaint when wheeling a Runner is the visibility sucks. Without having a spotter can be horrid sometimes trying to turn around or get over a tough obstacle.

Very nice! I've never had to deal with mud like that. I'd love to give it a shot but the cleanup would be a pain. Its good to see you have time to get out and play. Glad the flares are working out for you. I never understood what they were for other than in places where they are required by law to cover the tires. It make since now.

Will you be relocating soon to help put the smackdown on Saddam? It that info classified?

NICE

Joey, that first pic when you are leading the pack - your Runner is looking TOUGH!!! The flares really make a great addition to all of the mods you've done so far.

What is the next big mod going to be?
Gonna have a poll for all of our expert recommendations?? :confused:

Hey guys thanks for the compliments. Matt I will gone here real shortly.. I will sure miss being able to post! Cebby my runner looked pretty small compared to the 1st Gen behind me with 35's but he had never really offroaded before and didn't reallly have a clue what he was doing. I had to keep stopping and telling him to straighten his wheels. He would be in ruts with the wheels cranked all the way one way not even knowing it and wondering why he could barely move forward everyone has to start somewhere I guess
