Moab "Jeep" Pics

Just for the heck of it - here are some pics of a wheeling trip to Moab last week. I met up with friends from Phoenix and Salt Lake City. Weather was a little hot but no rain and lots of good times!

Here is what started out as a B2 but has some of the sickest flex I've ever seen anywhere! He's got 60s front and rear with 4 links and 40s.


And here is another B2 with a brand new D44/9in swap on 35s.

Sorry I've been off a few days. The brown BII is mine. It has what my sig says. The other two belong to buddies on BroncoII.org. The black & white one is from Salt Lake and the buggy is from Phoenix. It was hella good trip!!

Eddie to say you drove anything like you stole it is the biggest understatement of the year!! That was '03 when we wheeled the Puerco! I remember your TJ on 35s - for a while.

True on the mileage. It's turned over twice - most of it hiway when it was a DD. It's showing about 40K and I had the speedo disconnected for 35K when it was new. Now I don't care! Even after 21 years the paint still looked pretty good - until this flop happened on tax day (4/15/07) on Hole In The Rock near Lake Powell. Frikkin trail was so wet in landslid out from under me. Good thing the tree was there. It was still running so we winched and powered it out, trailered it home, stripped the interior and took it to Tommy's Auto Body in Abq. I found a new roof and RR 1/4, hauled it to Tommy and 2 months later I had it back. First post flop run was 7/7/07 for LUCK!!





Here we're figuring out where the middle color borders will be.

I got some play time in yesterday. About 15 minutes of it. My mother-in-law lives in Espanola and my wifes two brothers were in town. Right behind the Bond House off of the plaza in Espanola is a half city block with nothing but dirt on it. The place turns into a mud pit when it rains.
My brother-in-laws wanted to do something other than sit around the house so they suggested having some fun out in the mud, and it was fun, until the cops showed up. They were pretty suprised when they found three "mature" guys in the truck instead of a bunch of kids. They said it was not against the law but probably not the best idea to be carving huge ruts in the mud on city property. I asked the Police officer if he wanted to have a go, and I thought he was going to jump in, but he just smiled and told us to take our toys and go home...

Yeah the one was pretty cool. But he was like... 12 years old. He acted like he wanted to stick around a chat, but the other one acted like he was late for church.

Like he said, it's not illegal. So, not much he could do other then give you a ticket for loitering maybe?

At any rate. There are cool cops around. I even ran into one in Rio Rancho.
