That trail looks interesting...
Seems like a fun place for some off-roading session for me and my buddies...

thanks for the compliments.
the front bumper is a RigidCo, the rear is a C-Rok... both units have extensive mounting/reinforcing setups...

The 33's did their job to the stock steering box, so, I replaced it with a Chevy S-10 unit and replaced the beat steering pump with another factory jobbie.
Last week I lost a U-joint at 80mph... and drove like that for the better part of 200miles... Super Swampers hide noises such as this.
Rebuilt both front axles... stock inner axles, spicer 760 joints and alloy outers.
Additionally, the hack and tap SYE had worked loose and the rig took to vibrating so bad...well combine the SYE vibrations, the wore out u-joints/steering box/steering pump and well... my wife refused to drive it...
Funny, this stuff wears slow, so I never noticed the deteriation.
Having fixed all that up... the Rig has not driven so smoothly and so straight since I cannot remember when.

That's all for now.

So
