If you want the baddest and meanest offroad ride, you need to think mule with hemorrhoids.

Highbean's ride is pretty bad ass. Check out the 4x4 forum.

Mine seems to do ok on the rocks. 2" body lift, 4" suspension lift, 302 with edelbrock intake, holly projection, AOD trans, 4.56 r/p, detroit locker in the rear, trac lock in the front. 35" BFG mudders. Been to Moab Utah, Farmington NM, Salton Sea Cal, Parker AZ, many years with the Phoenix 4 wheelers.
Only a dingleberry, not yet a Turdlike person, maybe someday!!! I am happier than a retard in a room full of bouncy balls right now!! Joe.

Not a serious 4x4 but serious enough for what I'm going to use it for. Paint within a month, 1978 F-150, 351M, 4-speed, 4x4. Fun truck.

I prefer to spend my money on other things, but can I count my D-6 CAT?
I have been over the Rubicon in some awesome jeeps, but by picking an easier route I could have done it in any of my stock 4X4's.
And my two legs have taken me places vehicles will never go, including my CAT.

Gimme' time. I'm working on it. I really need to get updated pic's. And No, I don't intend to tough test the trailered hulk like I did the tow rig.

Not serious but it's a work in progress. Will be bigger and better in the future. Hey rattler why you having to sell? I remember when we were talking about it down in the 4x4 section.

Don't guess I ever took a picture of my 151 on purpose.... or I can't find one at least. Here's a piece of it: Some old fart leanin' on it:

I do a lot of 4X4 trail riding here in North Florida. Beaches, National forests, State forests. I am probably more serious than my old 4Runner is though. It's a 1988, with the 22R-E motor, auto trans and little 235-75R-15 Goodyears. Still, I manage to run with the big dogs, and go most anywhere I need to go. It is my daily drive, making a lot of trips to Miami and back, Birmingham and back, Virginia and back.

Mama won't let me park this in the driveway. So I have to drive the '87 to get to it.

I don't know if it's serious, but it's big and it's 4wd.
