Jarrad

I was going to go.. but I know I already cherry picked the good stuff from there so no real need.. Rocmoc can you PM me the guys number from out there in farmington I am going to try to buy the trooper he has thanks Jarrad

Undisclosed location in Arizona.. not NM

There was no rally at the glades.. you must have us mistaken for some other group? we were just a few friends getting together for a weekend trail ride and bullshit session anyhow Looks can be decieving? I am pretty sure the powerline pictures were taken at a area in Arizona beforehand and were lumped on my camera.. as far as all videos go they were all taken within 200 yards of our camp, and well within our right to ride on, I am not here to argue about whats right or wrong, it happened and if we broke any rules then contact me and let me know what damages there were incured, but as far as I am concerned there were no rules broken and nobody to be there to say yes or no that they were

We all had our camping permit, I know I for one picked mine up personally friday at the office out there, As far as the off limits places I had a map but the map they gave me at the office was kinda shitty and hard to make heads or tails of, Our guide on the tour was someone there from farmington, and I am sure he knows what and where to ride, if not then it happens.. No excuses though I know I for one will never head back out to Farmington, a big haul from me from Texas, I would like to see it somewhere else next year, or group it in with an organized event of some sort, maybe Moab utv rally..

The video may be found

The bulk of them here Here are some highlights

T-minus 1 hour and 20 minutes till launch, loaded up and ready to hit the road.. See you guys tomorrow for those of you headed there!

Oh come now, you can break the rules once or twice right? On a side note, I talked to a Nicole at the plce that does the ohv permits today and got mine, said her and her husband are going to try to make it out

Rick, I have used a couple sets of King shocks on the trooper, no mods needed, just had to pick up a few new bolts, They work awesome

Anybody plan on any night time runs?

They are telling me late tomorrow afternoon, But here is the last trooper they did for me so use your imagination on what it will look like, I am getting the same black and real flame job 2009 Joyner Trooper

You bet I am I can't wait for tomorrow, not sure what time it will be though.. I need to call them and ask that question.. Still unsure it will fit in my enclosed trailer, may have to haul it on the flat-bed

Just got a call from the guy out there, My campin permit is in thier office waiting on me to pick it up, so I am all set just need my orv permit and good as gold

I have not yet.. took it to wrap this morning, depends on how long they take, will be deciding factor on the gear set, I had the choice between a little better crawl ratio or looking good.. looking good took the better part of my judgement for right now

No it is something I whipped up quite awhile ago.. has been on 3 buggies, there are also rear speakers and a box but without the rear tire rack to mount them to I did not install

Finished except for the wrap

Nearing the end wheels here today mounted tires and my guy Aurturo is building the back half and tire carrier

Actually wait till you see it finished.. And someone bring thier checckbook.. I don't really want to haul it back home

The rock sliders are being built right now, I pick the wheels up first thing in the morning, need to install the stereo and build the spare tire mount next, put my new G-force seatbelts in and a few minor details then hopefully tomorrow afternoon I can get it to the wrap shop

Doors and top light bar are finished

Should I?

Here are the new cage supports and passenger grab handle The opening tube doors are on the agenda for today also

They use the same power supply.. use a relay and a inline fuse for the fan and have the old fan power wire trigger the relay.. it maybe that the power supply going into the fuse box has a high resistance in it, I would check it with a volt meter and see how much voltage is at the pump with and without the fan fuse in

I do that alot.. call it hot shotting the starter.. use the original wire to trip the 30amp automotive relay and use a 10 guage wire from batter to relay then to starter.. less voltage drop and will start everytime On a side note.. relaying the fan with a 10 guage and using the original fan wire to trip the relay cures the melted fuse syndrom they suffer As far as explaining it K the voltage has a long way to go through a small guage wire, think from battery to front then back again.. there is a lot of resistance there and will cause the voltage drop.. Thats why we use a AC voltage in our houses<thanks Tesla> not a DC like Edison tryied.. because a DC voltage tends to drop voltage the further it travels Jarrad

Tomorrow we get down to the nitty gritty, we were running short on the 1.5" .080 wall DOM tubing, have 100 feet being delivered in the morning, we start on the tube doors in the morning that will swing open.. this is going to be something unlike you guys have seen before.. we also still have to build the new spare tire holder and add the rock sliders.. The passenger grab handle is almost finished and I finally found the face for my stereo set up.. we are cruising along nicely.. The buggy will get wrapped first of next week and we expect the wheels to be back this friday so I can get it back in rolling condition so much work and hardly enough time to do it all.. will be pushing the deadline pretty close with the wrap job suppossed to tgake a few days
