Hey I thought Jeeps could go over these things so you didn't have to move them?


My thoughts exactly! I saw nary a tire track across that "pebble". :lol:

Joe was demonstrating chivalry :lol:
My little 31" tires and 3.5 inch body lift wasn't going to go over that "pebble" very well - and besides, it was in my way!

I knew I could get over or around that boulder. I have many times in the past, but I really wanted Lucy to try the waterfall and that boulder was standing in her way. Same with Allen. I didn't want to see him get any damage to his rig either. So.... :P

Oh, and the tire tracks were on the bottom side of the boulder. It was facing upward and rolled upside down right before the picture was taken. That's my story and I'm sticking with it. :D

MMMMMMMM dynamite. There is no problem which cannot be eradicated with a sufficient quantity of explosives.

Mike,,, Thanks for the pix... I'm really impressed how far you pushed your Suburban !! You know that it is possible to "build" it to be able to even do more .... Here are a few shots of another Suburban that gets used a lot... This thing is unreal !!

Thanks,

Sorry I missed this post back in September.
Isn't that Deans Sub? Nice truck.
Since my Sub is a work truck, and a gas pig, I decided to do a low buget project for now. Picked up a 97 Geo Tracker.
All ready ordered a rear locker and 3.5 inches of lift. Not gonna go to crazy with it.

Mike
