Why do you need to drive to a gas station to air up? Hogan has a compressor at the shop you can use to air back up.

Sorry I had to bail for this trip...

I still want to go on a trip this month, so lets square up a date!

Cargun

To be all kosher Hoggie would probably want his $3 per vehicle if they were going to use his stuff. That's expensive air.

colsoncj

Ahhh........ Thats right, we always camped and had it built into our fee....

ADH8796

We actually aired up at Hogans and he didn't charge us anything he's a real nice guy. The trip was a blast. I think our date for this mounth is going to be May 18th-20th How does this work for everyone? I know keith has graduation but hopefully this will work.

colsoncj

Good for me

Cargun

How'd it go? Hopefully no one totalled their truck on this trip?

ADH8796

It went well we had a blast. Keith had a flat and didn't have a spare but lucky for him my spare fit. Keith and Fink both got some good pics hopefully they will post them up in a new thread soon.

Exeter

Nope. No body damage. I did blow a tire though... . New one should be on the way from 4WP soon for free though. . Was a good trip, everyone had a good time. Have a few pictures to post when i get home.

EDIT: I take to long to type, Anthony beat me to it.

colsoncj

Keith, sounds like you need to have a spare comin with that new one....

Hans, you makin the trip on the 18th?

Exeter

Asked my Dad if i could put another wheel/tire on the 4WP card before i called them up, because i don't have the cash now. He said no.

ADH8796

Keith I have another tire just like the spare you barrowed that you can buy from me for $90 if you want it. It's $180 on tire rack. Let me know man I know it's not perfect size but it's the same hight as yours are.

Cargun

I can sell you a non-round 33x12.5R15 bias ply spare on a nice shiney chrome wheel for $30. They're on the orange Chevy....

Or I have that near full tread 33" Aurora MT with a big knot on the sidewall on an ugly wheel. But it's actually a round tire!

Fink

Finally posting up!

I had a blast, being it was my first time doing hardcore wheeling, it was great.

The Runner did surprisingly well, I had no idea I would be able to do so much with it...whether it was going to be it's capabilities or my guts.

Keith was the only to suffer a problem and it was a little one.

I don't know if I'll be able to go all weekend but I'll be able to camp Friday(18th) night and then wheel all day on Saturday and come back that night but I might be able to go the whole weekend.

Here are the pics I got:

Parked while Keith and Anthony were making their way down

Can't wait to go back!!

Fink

P.S. - A big thanks to Keith and Anthony for bein patient with me, it was my first real wheeling trip

ADH8796

I can't wait to go back either the pics are great Fink. I had a blast and maybe next time I'll remember to bring my camera. I think Steven and another buy I know named Corey are in for that weekend also the other guy has a Jeep XJ on 33's locked in the rear so we should have some fun. Hans are you going to be there?

ADH8796

Oh yeah next time I really want to get some pics of keith and I going up little blue waterfall.

Cargun

Nice pics... looks like some good wheeling. And a good Mickey Thompson commercial!

Yeah, looks good for the 18th. The truck is back up and running, I just need to top off all the fluids that leaked out and get all the blood out of the interior.

colsoncj

FYI if anyone can make it, I might try and head down Friday morn to be at disney around noon. I'm not sure yet, I gotta see who all is coming with me and if they can make it. But, if they could, could any of you guys?

Exeter

just figured out graduation isn't until 5pm that saturday....

so friday i have 10am graduation "rehersal" but after that... i'm free. and i just have to be back by probably 3pm-ish Saturday to make it to graduation by 4p to be ready to start by 5pm. so... i MIGHT... MIGHT be there friday night/saturday early.

P.S. - had to cut the "DOT" number out of my tire and send it in to have my warranty work. and man those tires are pretty thick.I am now much more stumped on how i put a hole in the side of it. its at least 3/8" maybe even 1/2" thick... oh well.

Fink

Awesome Keith!

I'm glad you'll be able to get a new tire...you have such little miles on em that I doubt having one new one will hurt anything.

Can't wait to go back! Right now I'm in search of a good box I can put in the back that will fit between the rear seats and the Hi-Lift so that I can safely haul all of my stuff on the trail.

I also need to get a fire extinguisher mounted or at least safely placed inside the rig.

Fink

Bunta Fujiwara

sounds awesome guys....

I've never been, but I am planning to go someday.

Take care and let me know how it goes!!!

It's close enough to Colorado...
