Na, I ran like that all the time and never had any trouble with water in the diffs. Just couldn't keep brakes on it.

Yeah I've got breathers. Still check though for milkshake everytime though. They were clean after that trip but had to let the carpet sit in the sun. Those pics were taken in the Corbett area in northern Palm Beach County, it's close to home.

Just goes to show ya, there's not a lot of difference in FL. Those pics could have been taken up here by us in the the Orlando area.

LOL!! We live about a mile from the 436 Hooters, just off Winter Park Drive down Wilshire.

We went to :08 years ago. It was funny as

to have mudbogging/bull riding right in downtown Orlando. I don't know that they closed it. I pass it on the way home and it appears things are still going on in there, I don't know what though. I saw a slew of punked kids, mohawks and black tee's lining up to go in there one afternoon.

I went to the :08 in okeechobee about 3 years ago and they had the mud bogs there. The one in orlando is closed down as of a few months ago from what I heard. At least the mud bog part of it.

And as for the

I know just the spot

there's a bunch of high rise condo's going up around here, someone probably bought them out and they're going to build on it. There's no where to park anymore anyway, they built a bus station on what used to be their parking lot.

CTENG in KS · « **Reply #19 on:** Apr 19, 2005, 09:19:50 AM »

Yeah, that's what my buddy Scott said...a nice bus station!

Great pics! Lets see some specs on your rig

grandeyota · « **Reply #21 on:** Apr 19, 2005, 12:04:24 PM »

More specs? Ok. It's got 3" body lift and longer shackels on the rear springs. Lot's of fender trimming/hammering. 16/35r15 boggers on the rear and 36/14.50r15 radial swampers on the front on 15x14 steel wheels. I do alot of highway driving so I've got 33s on another set of wheels to run around on. 22re is pretty much stock. Got a LCE header to replace my stock manifold that broke in half. Also LCE throttle body that is overbored. Have some bucket seats from a hyundai scoupe in place of the bench. I had 4.88s from a 93 4runner front and rear but I blew a few teeth off the rear ring gear so I'm on 4.10s in the back again. Gotta wait for some $$$ before they match again. I also see a snorkel in the near future.

Here are some more pictures too.

And a sorta clean one.

Now that is some serious mud. It's a good looking truck. You didn't list one vital stat...highest distance all tires off the ground. Impressive.
