  • First trial run

    For the last month we have been working on a friends' rig at my house and took it out to Cougar Buttes for a spin to make sure all was good. Just thought I would share. It has a 4.3 chevy, 700R4 and two speed atlas and has 42 inch IROKs:

        The rig was a used one and has a 14 bolt rear and king pin 60 in the front. I don't remember the gear ratios.

                Curt, I will be at FITD. Mike Wickham has asked me to lead a trail again, not sure which yet.
