knocked out a couple of little projects today.
I have always wanted a set of Four Treks High lift mounts but the price always put me off.
I was looking ebay for a roll bar camera mount and found these things, 4 for $40 delivered-ballast clamps for racing
used the other set to make a mount for my fire extinguisher:

My 10 week or so clutch job finally done. Nice to have the Trekker back on the road.
Decided to bust out the tire grooved. Nothing too fancy, busted a couple blades till I got it figured out.

This is kind of an experiment, should be the last season with these Toyos, they are getting old.

Oh yea, i read that somewhere before. How do you like those? So you have to be a lot more careful when checking tires/brakes etc? Are they fragile?

Wow, I missed lots! Lol .. Great work on the tires, looks nice and practical as additional slinger-effect!
Nice find on the seats, too.... Paul had ur back, thats always great to have a second set of eyes peeping the net for this harder and harder to find stuffs!

Drift HD 720 camera
picked up a new toy, a Drift HD 720 camera:
http://driftinnovation.com/camera/drift-hd720/
thing I really like about it besides getting it really cheap
-the lense is rotateable
-remote control-- can be mounted on a bumper and you can record the trail sections you want
-supports a 32gb micro sd card
-can charge it while still mounted using a USB cord in my truck
-small color LCD screen, the newer models have a bigger one..
-and a few other cool features..timed stills (1 every 1-5s)
click image below for video
I will probably get a short piece of 90* aluminum to make a bracket to have the camera mounted upright.
