this is gonna be sweet but the girlfriend is not gonna dig sleeping in the snow so lets try and make it a day trip, extra long is alright.  Brad you gonna try and put on some fulll doors for this trip?

Hyena

Na, i would have to puch out my door frame.  Half doors aren't bad in the snow.  I will have a bunch of layers of cloths on and then my heater running full blast.  James will have half doors on too because his full door doesn't fit either.  I think i might be driving my truck up there rather then trailoring it.  So who is your gf Pat?

sloyota

i should hopefully be done with my truck then.good place to break in my truck,my girlfriend wont like camping in the snow either,but we'll see
I'm not responsable for my own action's.

Not bad Pat.  I just went over to James house to say hi to his parents.  I found some brand new 37 inch Irocs in the garage.  He actually ordered them over the internet from were he is stationed in Fort Knox.  Im gonna see if i can have them mounted on his wheels before he gets home.  He might be able to run them in a couple weeks at the snow.

dude I am still running a stock rear third in the back so I have to get off my ass and order up some new gears or else i'll be one wheelin it. I think I can make it work.  No more school yay

Hyena

He got 37x14.50/14 Irocs.  I don't know if they are radial or bias.  He won't be driving it much because he is going heading to germany the beginning of January.

When you get them mounted, can you compare them to your 37" MTR's??  Thanks  :biggthumpup:

I will try and take some measurements.

ordered my 5:29's yesterday and will have joe set them up soon so I should be ready. 

Hyena

There is a fat storm up there right now.  I hope it drops a lot of snow so we can have some fun.  James flew in from Fort Knox yesterday.  He has to find out what day he is free so we can go up there.  I will keep you all informed.

cruzila

about 18" fell at Spider. The storm coming today is supposed to be warm snow level 7500 and up :down:
