and DAMN!
I've never wheeled that park with my truck, but i've rode a few times and it just turns into a slippery fun fest when it rains that much, the posi rear was KILLING ME! the first hill climb i was beating it pretty hard in 2nd trying to get up that ledge but no go :( I almost had it once we had already stared unspooling the winch as you can see ;)

to this day, no one's made it up the right line, only the "easy" left side which is now all rutted out and looks like a massive biach.

My buddy was like "Go this way"
i said "no, that looks like the easy way, i want the fun way!"
then a few seconds later "BANG!" :speechles

...about to break the axle

the front driver tire was in front of the rock its on when i broke it

BUT, that didn't stop me.. my buddy who was supposed to be there when we got there.. got there about a minute after i had the axle torn down waiting on the new shaft he had taken out of a 44 of his. got it all put back together and kept goin, finally got to use the rock lights.. I also had an issue with the truck running real hot, maybe its the lack of fan shroud :headache:.. time for an e-fan.

you suck.

This thread sucks....

BOOOOOO BOOOOOO :irked: :irked:

You should atleast just give us one picture of the truck since you lied to us.

:sucks:
:worthless
:lame:

I said all of those out loud while reading this thread.

You suck, Matt.

Shafted...

:bling1::ban?::banplz::ban?::banplz:

:fing26:
come down to Texas, we're goin back next saturday i think.

How did i lie to you?
i said it was a teaser..


pics are uploading, i blew up my front driver shaft, sheared the u joint and ears off the shaft, and broke the ebrake cable again:crazy:

wow. I love your wheeling spots and action pics. Very nice.

Looks like a nice place to wheel. What park is that? I might be down in Texas this summer to see my sister in North Richland Hills.

Dang Matt... That place looks real fun. I'm really liking your truck. Looks great. It's very hard to tell how hard things are in pics but if I aired down to like 4psi, do you think my yota would even have a chance at making it up that right side? Just trying to compare. I have no idea how hard it is in person. Great pics though!:biggthump

Take it easy son!!

Great pics!

HA
we're going again... last minute decision.
I'll post another thread later


it was called Boulder Creek Farms, now its called uhm.. Hidden Falls Adventure Park, its about 45 minutes west of me pretty close to Marble Falls.

http://www.hiddenfallsadventurepark.com/

no. :puppy_dog
i mean no

I've seen a hand full of competition buggies try it, and heard more stories.:crazy:

good stuff, I think you are making up for that stretch you didn't get to wheel for awhile

that place looks tuff, didn't realize there was a park by marble falls

they just opened not too long ago. and there's not too many full size trails yet, but there's a ton for quads and dirt bikes.


Today we went up a few trails again and it was a little easier.. I made it up everything today, we had to strap the ZJ up a ledge, then we went back at the end of the day and tried again... anddd he stripped some teeth off the pinion gear :006: but up until that point he was giving it HELL, i had no idea an open D30 on 33s with a V8 would take so much abuse..:crazy:


Oh yea.. my front end got like 2 or 3 feet of air, i was looking at the sky for a split second hah

damn Mall Crawlers!!! :crazy:

Crazy man. Looks like a great time though

it was a good time, we need to go cut more trails, it gets old running the same stuff a couple times in one day.

I really wish someone was there with a nice camera to catch my wheel stand haha

I enjoyed your captions lol

haha, thanks. I need to play with one of them in photoshop, but its too late for that right now

nice pics Matt, looks like a sweet place to go. Sucks about the breakage, but looks like you had no problems getn it out and the new one in. tools and spare shafts FTW

looked like a good day to me other then he axle
