The tire size is going in the right direction. Are you planning for 40's? Sweet truck, but do you really think it's ready for the Tank Trap? Let's see some action photo's to boost our confidence that the rig can handle the beating. My truck can handle a 3 foot wall, but I wouldn't even consider TTC.

Honestly not trying to bust your chops, but let's see it go! :biggthumpup:


I have done the nasty old Tank Trap in my sami. the only bad thing is I rolled it down the back side end over end, I just need to stretch my wheelbase for the load in the back. thats the bad thing about samis lifted this high all your weight ends up in the back on top of the axle and I would rather my weight be between the axles.   Yeh I have 10 yrs exerience in 4-wheeling only 2 yrs of running hollister and I feel like I know the trails pretty good. I have only lived in Calif. for 4 yrs. I'd be more than happy to post some video but I don't know how?

A couple years ago didnt a cherokee make it pretty far with 35's? If a cherokee can, a sami can but it may need a breather
Looking for 35s in SLO later summer time, like august.  Swapping Tires??

Don't make to much fun I may make you eat your words   :greengrin: . A few years back a Samurai pulled a Dozer up that hill. He may not have done it fast but he made it to the top. :yesnod:

ya its a bummer man. everyone always votes for the tricked out buggies theres hardly ever any diversity in the comps.
always remember a crowded elevator smells different to a midget.
