Hello All,
Went to the shop to pull my motor out a start the rebuild...Well people came to shop wanting something done...bend some pipe...weld Harley fender....You know B.S. Jacked it up started to cut the exhaust off,and A buddy came up and wanted to borrow a dirt bike from the guy who was helping me......To get to his cabin...Now I have herd of the cabin being back in the woods...Holes that will eat 4 wheelers...Hum...I said lets take the Tracker ;D.So we take off...start back up roads that are going nowhere...get to the end...They said out this road...what road??? Well it was a 4 wheeler path...No joke...Old county road...There were holes with gas line pipes,logs,rocks,Tracker was kicking ass...and then they started to laugh...they said the next ones the BIG one...
I looked at it...was about as long as the tracker...So of course I hit it slow...When I DROPPED OFF!! the front end went straight down...OH SHIT!!! well it flexed more than a tracker should...Some rubbing and crawled right out.
They said that was the first time they made it in a Truck... so we went back to the cabin...Logs in the road,crushed driver side rocker...May-be I should have finished my slides...Oh well, So now we are coming back out..Hitting every thing on the way...Back at the BIG HOLE...well I tried to creep....My front bumper hit the other side....HIT THE BANK...So after about 5 trys...One guy got out...Tried one more time ...no luck...I was hitting it in 1st,4low and 5,500 rpms....My buddy said that I was bringing the tires off the ground two feet when it bounced up out...And just slid back in....So next time I backed up and 2nd gear wide open.....I made it out!!! got out to look at this hole...you could see where the TOP of my pass. side tire was cutting a groove...I never got in the hole but I bet it's 4 feet deep....Sorry no pics but there will be a rematch!!! And never did work on my motor ::).Cut the rocker off up to 3/4 inch below the door to fix my "little" dent...And my front Auto hub is "Clicking" when under hard power...Think I killed it ;).
Later Tom K.

See... now you can cut the other rocker, and make the slides sit that much further up...
LOL.... nice little trucks aren't they?? Never cease to amaze me.
