Re: Post your WTHeck? Pictures
That also sounds like a great idea. Wonder how hard it would be to carve out a block to house the mailbox?

Not easy, I would think. However, it has been done.

Re: Post your WTHeck? Pictures
Some old crank with a good head overcame the manifold problems.

Re: Post your WTHeck? Pictures
Looks like that one would be a partial differential equation. :nod:

Re: Post your WTHeck? Pictures
Thats a good idea, i got a pile of driveshafts, a few suburban driveshafts that would work great for a mailbox. I can never bring myself to do something like this though cause i always think 5 years from now i might need that driveshaft

Re: Post your WTHeck? Pictures
I'm on the hunt for a big Caterpillar crankshaft for my mailbox post.
I finally found this picture I remember taking. It was a little Toyota being used as something bigger. Ya think a stone or two might like to bounce out of there? A 1t is subjected to scrutiny by DOT while a little bugger like this slips around doing it's own thing. I'm sure the trailer has brakes, too.

Just a couple miles below that store/cabins is a steep winding road that goes by the dam and down into the canyon below. It used to be single lane with pull-outs but it's paved two lane now.

Yeah, that's going to make a really interesting "4x4 recovery" video on youtube

Re: Post your WTHeck? Pictures
Some dig their Jeeps a lot more than others.
I saw this at Safeway in town and for me it was a huge WTF, I mean WTH, in many ways. First thought was "Must be visiting from out of town". Next was simply, "The world has changed"

Re: Post your WTHeck? Pictures
I just can't figure why anyone would want those big wheels and low profile tires on a 4wd/awd ????
I finally got rid of the factory 50R17's from our little car a few years ago. I found some 15" wheels at a salvage yard and switched to a /65 tire which rides much better especially on our dirt roads. The tires are way cheaper too - about $200 less for four!
