Cool and Unusual Rock Crawlers...Post pics here:

X2, and the newer 3.5 is an incredible v6 that actually sounds as good as it performs!  Just sucks Nissan likes to hang 6 inches of frame below the body.  

The xterra actualluy uses a 3.3l engine that is different than the Frontier. Can you imagine one with the factory supercharger? 210 hp and 245 ft lbs tq. With an auto I'll bet they would do well without duals or t-case gears.

Some updated pics of my junk.

By far the best looking Courier I have ever seen built. Very nice rig man. 

[yjay]

I don't typically like the look of exo's, but that one looks great. I love how tight that one fits, especially how it's kinda recessed on the top of the bed rails.
That Courier is bad 

[IronClad]

Shhh. The natives will get restless.

flopp the natives they need to learn some day lol

It's a regular pickup.  I just didn't fit in it so I cut the back of the cab out and added a rear seat and cage.

[NITE KRAWLERS]

How about a little Splash....

Here's one that at the time I could not post anywhere since it was a classified vehicle. We took 3 of the Navy Seal's fast attack vehicles on Sledge Hammer to see if they could tackle extreme terrain. So here in all their glory, The Flyer. Now declassified so I can freely post them.

A Nissan Patrol that wheeled with us once.....

A fullsize Ford diesel pickup.....

They are still unusual on a trail so they belong  other than when we had them and wheeled them it is a rarity if ever seen doing what they were made to do. I do agree that is what they were originally made for since both were completely stock, and here's my Ramcharger it too stock with factory limited-slips. I guess it doesn't belong here either since it is doing what it was made for.

[Rocksurfer]

Oh well gotta go to work, I have more of the vehicles that I've had and wheeled, sans a few.

[notyourmomslx450]

 

no need for that.  I'm done.

Like wheeling a school bus.

[NITE KRAWLERS]

Ya man that chevy is sick! It was here in south dakota on the ultimate adventure run and wheeled our tight trails like a pro! Sweet ride and i think that pic just above this is when they were in North dakota also!!

I think that my post count is so high is because I've been here so long and have had a lot of input into the threads. Not that I even care how high it is, a post count doesn't mean a thing.

Not mad, just saying that they are unusual on the trail so as far as I'm concerned they belong. Just because you disagree doesn't mean that I can't debate the issue back. That would be un-American. If the author of the thread thinks they don't belong he can remove them, he can also come in and clean up this dribble.

..and yes the Ramcharger, K5 Blazer, Scout and Bronco have served our military.

http://westslope.craigslist.org/cto/1796901937.html heres one!

[yjay]

That deserves a permanent place here after the ad expires.


You read it right... a street-legal Subaru Station Wagon that can tackle any trail in CO you point it to! I have a clean title to it, and need to sell fairly quick... This is all custom, full cage tied into the tube chassis. There are some quirks to it, but at the end of the day, it is fully locked, hydro steering, and a crawl ratio over 200:1!

Check out the list of parts:

-Saturn 1.9L DOHC engine (will get a turbo later when I have time to build the plumbing)
-Toyota 5 speed transmission
-Toyota 2.6:1 reduction box (can't remember if that is actually the correct reduction right now )
-Toyota 4.7:1 transfer case
-Narrowed D44 front with Alloy shafts, welded, 5.13's
-Narrowed 31 spline 9 inch rear with lockrite, 5.13's
-4 linked front and rear
-Full hydraulic steering
-12" Sway-a-way coil overs
-35" Maxxis Treppadors
-4x Allied Rock-A-Thon Beadlock rims (nearly new, rock rash)
-Front Warn Winch, 2-way mount as a suck winch and front recovery
-Rear suck Winch, remote controlled
-Comes with a set of Warn Hubs that can be installed

The bad?
-The backseat windows have been broken out. They are easily replaced from a salvage yard.
-There are small leaks in the drivetrain. Nothing major, but notable.
-There are some love taps in the body.... Rocks haven't been kind to this subi.
-Everyone honks at you on the road, and asks if you can convert their subaru to a crawler.

i agree!
