Working on that very same thing myself.

Amazing pic, very hard to get pics to "look" steep.

Thanks, most these pix dont do justice to the size and and scope of some of these hills. But I think the shot with the towrope looks cool.

Re: 4X4 Action Pix

Sadly, I've decided to "put away" the Blazer for a while. Its just too cold to work on it and I get tired of wheeling on the frozen ground. I suppose I could take her out if any locals planned something fun to do (hint, hint). So here she sits, behind the garage next to one of my lowrider Chevelle wagons (the beater). I've always got a kick out of seeing them next to each other. Total opposite ends of the height spectrum.

Winter wheeling is fun but there always seems to be "stuff" to do to the off-road rides and winter seems to be the best 'down' time.

If I can get HALF of the tweaks/repairs I want to get done this winter, I'll be happier for it come spring.

*Fuel injection - check/done but needs plug wires and to be dialed in
*Fuel cell - on order - DONE
*Zero rates - soon (removing the overload spring and moving my rear axle some) - DONE
*Tube doors - Gonna try
*Tach - probably - DONE
*Install radio/stereo - yeah maybe
*Quarter panel protection - hope it happens this year
*New seats - my arse wishes
*PAINT - okay...that's gonna be next year
*42's - in my dreams

SEE what I mean?!

Did get the new 18ft/10K trailer already though.

Re: 4X4 Action Pix

I'd be very interested to see progress pix on the rear quarter protection, tube doors, seats....HELL I'd love to see it all! I think Im gonna concentrate on getting the "show" Chevelle wagon going this year. Its a twin to the beater car in the pix. But, new 2 tone paint, new 283/700r4. Just gotta put her together.
