ajohnson's 85 build

[ajohnson]

Nasssssssty filthy mud, we hatesssssssss it precious.

Looks like a good time though. Those Tacos look pretty well built.

Yah it was a little sloppy, but not as bad as Uwharrie has been. I was the only one that didn't need a pull

The tacos are badass. The blue access cab has a crawl box and 36's, the silver one just got the 35" MTR's, and they are all locked front and rear except the blue double cab which still does pretty well with A-trac.

Cool pics. Looks like a fun place.
I'd seen some pics on Larry's facebook, but wasn't sure where they were from.

Man that looks like a fun run. Might have to motor-vate my club into doing a Potts Mountain run.

It was well worth the 3 hour drive. I will definately be going back.

I got my replacement rear upper control arms via UPS just now. I'll be installing them after I get back from food shopping (yeah :shocked: ). Definitely need to plan a drive down there - SOON!

Awesome!

 

[ajohnson]

Awesome!

Thanks. I wish we got some pics/vids of me on the last 2 obstacles, they were pretty intense.

Looks freaking ominous coming through the fog. Like it just high-fived sasquatch.

Nice job on that hill climb. You don't have a ton of droop in the front, do you?

 

[ajohnson]

I need to open the spring clamps and to try to get more droop, but I think my shackle angle is the main droop issue.

 

[ajohnson]

I'm gonna head to SETO 9 at windrock for labor day weekend. I am pretty pumped especially because the rig is ready to wheel. I got a 18" light bar to mount, other than that I'll probably just change the rear diff and engine oil, and check all the bolts/nuts.
