Hey Bob I am from Topeka, I am a member of Trail Krawlers 4x4 there is a couple of guys in the club from your area. This pic is the only one I got it is from the Kansas Krawl held Sept 18 it was the first time out with the runner. it was also before I had a chance to remove the snow plow stuff the previous owner had on it and before I made the front bumper.

I wanted to attend the Sept run, but couldn't make it. Robin and other Trail Krawler members have wheeled with our club (tornado alley cruisers) many times.

BTW, Tornado Alley is hosting a run at Tuttle this weekend. You're welcome to join us.

Nice

Regarding your long rear shackles, how does it ride? I'd imagine its very smooth, but does it sag with hardly any weight back there?

[FatAzzRunner]

I am still running long shackles but have shortened them from 12"s to more like 7 or 8"s.

It does ride really soft in back but I dont ever really ever put too much weight back there due to cutting so much bed off. 

The only weight I really get back there is my kids in the back seat and trash from the jack-axes leaving trash all over the place where we wheel.

[4runnerfromhell]

got the pm FA I hope it helps .....amen to the trash thing I bet I picked up a case worth of beer cans at Tuttle last weekend shame they were already empty. I like to pick up full ones

Jim

[FatAzzRunner]

 

Yeah, me to.

It really irritates me to spend part of my weekend pickin up after the rednecks out there in OK.

[Thumper]

HEY WHATS WRONG WITH BEING A REDNECK OUT IN OKLAHOMA?? 
Nah im just messing with you but i get what ur saying i hate doing out and picking up everyone elses trash because there too dang lazy too keep it and put it in a trash can!
I have a place about 3 miles from my house that i wheel here in oklahoma called the orv park its near fort gibson or bragg's if you have ever been there and everytime we go out there people have partyed and left trash everywhere but i try too go up every few weeks and pick up all i can and put it in the trash cans so we can keep the place open, because everyone thinks its the wheelers that do it but its really drunkin highschool and college kids who party out there and the dirtbikes and 4 wheelers usally the people wheeling pick up the trash so we dont get blamed.
if you ever wanna do any oklahoma wheeling pm me im a member of the NEOTH we are the northeast oklahoma trail hunters and we like wheeling with new people, just get ahold of me and we can set up some runs.
