Texas Club Challenge IV

[blue03stang]

Well it was this weekend, good turn out. We had about 15 rigs and about 15 others showed up, including 2 jeeps and an fj40 on rockwells and 47X20" mickey thompsons. They were badass. The place (Katemcy Rocks, Mason TX) was really cool too, its just a big rock basically, drive wherever you wont. For once i didnt break anything (other than my camera). here are a few pics of the place before the camera broke...

Ever consider getting some all terrains?
Or...are your current tires holding up pretty well...
That's some beautiful countryside!

[blue03stang]

those are all terrains kinda hard to tell from the pic cause they were spinning quite a bit at that point and its dark, but to answer your question... if i keep it, the fenders are getting hacked and 35 x 12.5 bfg m/t's are going on it, until then ill stay with the wranglers

Thanks bro :rock:

Is that a rear-steer setup I'm seeing too? Wheel/tire angle is different than that of the body, thus methinks 4ws

[blue03stang]

you would be correct, its got 4wheel hydro steer on 2.5 ton rockwells.... really cant go wrong with that setup, on and i think it had an lt1 or ls1... not a bad powerplant either. It was fun watching them drive/crawl over things i would have a hard time walking over. Someday ill be able to hang with them.... someday

:drool:

I need Rockwells under my next Jeep... screw the HP44/D60 combo I was planning on. Rockwells are a must :rock: As is the steering. And that engine too. Hell just give me the damn FJ and I'll drop an XJ body on it :rofl:

[blue03stang]

hey, at least you have options for axle swaps, if i ever do that to mine ill have to find a pass. offset REAR axle as well as a pass drop front, damn inline t-case. But anyways i think rocks would be a little overkill for you.

Yeah.. mud, sand, and trails are more my thing. Been rock-crawling once, and while it was fun, it required just a liiiiittle bit more patience and finess than I really wanted to give it :p

ooohhh, why did i have to sell my Jeep...:bawling: :bawling: :bawling:
