littlered Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 scot ..i could park 3 trackers on YOUR roof .......lmao!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUXterra Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 lmao @ robert ..."winch bait"!!!! :bravo: lol, I thought it would take longer for someone to notice. I sent the PM to Scott @ 11:18. Only took 2 hrs 14 mins for someone to see it. :) The one thing about mods is that it does make the rig more capable, but also more able to tackle harder trails & lines usually leading to more stucks.

Alot of my issues is tires... I went from a 265/70R16 down to a 225/75R16. Lost some ground clearance and wider foot path. You make the stickers, Ill rock it...

TomWood Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 I do have tires planned for the next mod, then locker in the rear. Once its paid off SAS and then done for a while. Its true though the more mods, the harder the line you try, the more stuck you get. Which is what happened to me on the 15th lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUXterra Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 lol, that was nothing. Tires or a locker would have had you clear without issue. I love hard lines but my tires are 3/4 worn so I stay away from them for the moment (to be remedied in the spring!). With the winch, I'll tackle them. As Eastcoastcam did on the recovery last night, I'd rather connect & winch than to have a pull (in some cases). Much easier on equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4x4Mckay Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 So if Robert is winch bait, does that makes James & Scott T sport fisherman ? Hahah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUXterra Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 You were almost part of that club too...2' further to the left, you would have been buried. I'll have to search, but I have pics of a former member in that hole at the start of the trail. That hole you traversed drops off really, really quickly! I'll have to look for pics, but since my CPU crashed 6 months ago, I'm not sure I have the pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUXterra Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Found them. RattX, not sure where he is now, but hope thing are good! Full size Excursion on 35's (maybe 37's) in the same hole without rain. Also pics of Clarence in teh same hole with his Zuk. Going back a bit to 2009...lol http://s1141.photobucket.com/albums/n585/TRUXterra/2009/?albumview=slideshow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autumnwalker Posted December 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Woah, that is deep! I like that truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUXterra Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Yeah, and that was in a dry spell. That would be 12"+ deeper when we ran it last weekend! That run was before your time Scott and before I had most of my mods. It was a blast to see the black smoke pouring out of RattX when he went through it (diesel) and Clarence was not a stranger to the hole in his Zuk either. 4x4Mckay was lucky (or knowledgeable) to be inside that line on the last run while breaking the ice! On the run previous to the pics the month before (I wasn't there but Dave (Xman) was) it claimed 2 jeeps due to hydro-lock...both on 33's iirc.

mrjoecanadian Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 you guys can play in that hole I like my truck to much to turn it into a boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUXterra Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Oh trust me, few that know of it, play in it...and we warn everyone of the pending doom. 4x4 was the only one to break the ice that day, and lots stepped out to stop it as/before it happened. NO ONE in this club would ever say "try that hole" in order to cause damage!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4x4Mckay Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Noppppe! not the same hole ! Mine is from bump n grind.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUXterra Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Sorry, I thought you were on the run on the 15th...Jeeps all look the same to me ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autumnwalker Posted December 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 lol 2009 was not "before my time". I'm familiar with that trail and have a nice splash video of my own. It's on the board somewhere if you search for it. I believe it's titled "H3 submarine". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUXterra Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 I meant before your time as in before you signed onto the board, unless you had another screen name previously? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
