Not Another CTOR Build

[Dishtowel]

yeah the motor really doesn't like it when you 100% restrict exhuast flow

my first thought when i heard the gasps of air was i blew a tire or two.....took a few secs of looking at stuff before i realized what i did.

I thought I had done worse than that! I was freaking out on the inside, it actually turned out to be funny, but hey, lesson learned. I actually folded my up very similar to what you did later in the day after the mud, I was backing over a tree and it fought back. Now my exhaust is now tucked uphigh and in tight, if it plugs with mud I have bigger problems....

Glad you didn't have any 'real' damage.

strengthened up the stock b2 tire carrier and modified it to fit a 35" for a spare and to support the weight with no added noise from it. Have to see how long it last this weekend at Twisted Trails.

duplicated my drivers door from 3 weeks ago with my pass. door yesterday. Wife wasn't happy, it was pouring all day

My side-hill-o-meter

And of course my only real damage, busted the joint at the axle. Had it fixed in less then 10, i had a spare short piece to the shaft with a joint and the axle flange ready to go. Just slip and bolt.

Spare Tire carrier held awesome even when i backed it into tree trying to climb a steep hill side covered in cement slaps.

Thanks for the pics man! looks like a wicked time! This pic looks like a tense moment perhaps?

 

[CheapThrillB2]

that trail is called "holey moley" and the entire trail is an oh shit moment for the most part. I have a bunch of video of myself and holshotracer at this park and on that trail. Just have to wait till tomorrow when i have access to better interent to upload.

[Mechanickid]

whats the biggest you have run?

 

[CheapThrillB2]

tires i have now, 36x12.50s

 

[CheapThrillB2]

deal on the other tires fell through, but i did get some work done. I'm up to 103" wheelbase

 

[fordwheelinman]

What did you change this time?

 

[CheapThrillB2]

heres the extended wheel base

stock B2 and stock tire size lol for size comparision

 

[compleckz]

wheelbase stretch =

last time i think you said it was at 100? so where did the initial 6" come from, and the most recent 3"?

btw, remember when that body was MINT earlier this year, lol! you + trees + plasma cutter = dangerous

 

[CheapThrillB2]

i extended the front which brought me to 98 then just did the rear which broughtme to 103

the looked better then it was......the whole pass side had been replaced at some point and was badly welded into place.....the seams were pretty crappy on the inside and underneath

That thing has murdered fenders!
