So, 'nother little update. Been waiting and waiting for my lift to show up, couldn't get ahold of the guy so I started getting a little worried. Turns out he got sent out on next to no notice to the oilfield camps to work on Dodges (Ha!) where there was no cell service or anything. Got an e-mail from him yesterday apologizing for the mix up, and some good news in it as well...
Not only did he send out the lift parts yesterday, he also threw in a NEW in box Detroit EZ Locker for my 8.8! So stoked! I'll be locked front and rear now, yeehaw!

A guy from up here on Vancouver Island. Said he felt bad for such an f-up on his part. Plus, he already has a Detroit in his Expo, but bought the Detroit EZ Locker just before he found the Detroit, so had it kickin' around and decided to toss it in to make up for it. I wasn't expecting anything to make up for it, I just wanted my stuff, but a free locker deffo makes up for that!!

I guess what goes around comes around. I just tossed some extra stuff in for MountainMike 'cause I was a little late on shipping.

Here's some pics from today. Let me say right now, I can't wait to test out the new Kevlar MT/R's in the snow. I have the old style MT/R on my BII right now, and they are about 30% tread life remaining and they CHEW.




My buddy Kris and his built '90


Anyone spot the trail? lol






We're up about 5-6000 feet here. Got above the clouds today, it was beautiful.


Andres629 and his co-pilot, Mrs. 629. :headbang:


Following Kris around.

Speeds... well, I was in 4lo all day. There were some points where I was really chewin' and not moving hardly at all, and there were other times I was able to get up on top of the snow and get 'er into 4th doing about 40 km/h.
The MT/R's were great, and I had them down to 7psi up front and 5psi out back with no problems whatsoever.
