Hmmmmmm maybe next time I should get my electronics (winch) working before I go in the mud
Winch Report
I made it 75 ft about 73 ft further than those damn 4wheelers (nice 2 mile Sunday afternoon walk to Custom's Runner)
:pat:

To keep on topic I vote for the Hummer

Oh this is no contest! I vote for the Oldsmobile bravada that drove into the light pole!

Seriously though, awesome runner! I would have loved to see the expression on the h2 owner's face when he saw a trube 4x4 that fit between the lines. I hate the **** H2 drivers that think because they have a big lunch box with wheels, they can park it (or drive it) however they want. Been cut off and jipped of a good park spot too many times for as little as I see of these beasts.

Oh and I love how everything but your rear hatch is muddy!

Is that pic in the parking lot with the hummer after you put on the body lift. How much gap do you have with the tjm after the BL. I have already put on my BL but I am thinking about a TJM but I wanted to know how much gap to expect. I am also going to put on 33 12.50 16 trxs MT as soon as I get some cash. I have 16x8 with 4.0 back spacing. What back spacing are on your wheels.

You truck looks bad ass!!!

i think the runner not only because it is this forum but because the runner is actually built and the hummer is stock, and that hummer is so dang heavy rite as it gets in some mud its gonna sink. I say get that there winch of yours and fix his bad parking problem.

the gap will be the same amount as the body lift. i have a 1.5 inch body lift and a tjm. you just gotta get special brackets made to compensate for the BL.

This is after the 2" BL. I grinded the holes on the inside on the bumper an inch or so. I also used an electric hacsaw to trim/narrow the mounting brackets so it can accomidate the lift of the bumper. The tires I have are 305/70r16 (33x12.5) on 16x8 with 4.25 bs

Looks like everyone else is better including the Camry. At least they know how to park their vehicles. The guy in the H2 thinks his truck's so big that if he parks like EVERYONE ELSE that he'll get hit. Please...

Someday, I will buy a beater of a car and use it solely to park within 3 inches of the driver side door of those type of idiots.

I`d go one better and borrow a p.o.s. car and park it door to door while swapping paint, then write SORRY ABOUT THAT in surf wax on their windshield.


Take a look at my parking.:pat:
