yup.
no hammers for me so i'll do a small wheeling trip i can afford. you feel me?
you should come out there yakkers! I wasn't really planning on running tank trap by myself but if you're there then maybe we can get Doug to run the tank trap with us. :unsure: (bring a snatch block!)
i should be out there saturday around noon until sunday afternoon... so bring a 30 pack and some sobe bottles. :eyebrows:
not sure which campground- maybe sycamore, maybe obstacle course...

we may not get down there till noon.... just head out after yer done with that. what is this day trip stuff. the drunken antics, s#!t talking and pyrotechnics around the campfire is almost better than wheeling. :2thumbs:
I got a couple of big logs and a few pallets for firewood.
just replaced my $50 shifter cable, routed it away from the exhaust this time. :rolleyes:
i think the blazer is good to go... now to load it on the trailer...

I have to keep adding tube to the rig, but maybe I'll shoot down after I finish Saturday night and party it up around the campfire and chill until noon Sunday and then get back to it :unsure:

YAY! That was fun. I like the new tires. Next time I just need to air them down more. 12psi and they needed to be around 4ish. Almost made it up the first water fall in tank, but didnt have the wheel speed. Ryan showed me how much I needed as he carried a tire up the whole thing. I learned and did a wheelie up the 2nd one. :D Then my wiring hell came back to haunt me. For some reason my starter wouldnt work. Ryan jumped it with a screw driver and got me out. Once back at the trailer figured out that it wasnt getting out past the firewall, jumped it and its fine for now. I guess it means for sure that the truck is down till the motor swap happens and I can rewire the whole thing correctly this time.
Jeremy has some video and pics. Cant wait to see them.

My carnage from saturday:
-broken front leaf spring
-bad fuel pump
Called my friends robert and brent, they were already halfway to hollister, but i somehow convinced them to turn around and go back to my house to grab me a fuel pump and a leaf spring that i had in my backyard... :beer:
So i swapped in the replacement leaf spring sat. night and all was good for another day of wheeling on sunday. :2thumbs:
nice guys ! maybe some day ill wheel again

Jay thanks for letting me ride, the rear wheels wheelie was truly one of the best rides I've been on. :banger:
