I was just their after xmas for a couple of days, good time every time.

Got myself all fixed back up and got a job, and their went all my free time for the last year. But it put some cash in my pocket that allows me to built when I have time. Blowing up the air compressor has not helped either. Photos were all attached to Webshots.com when they changed formats all...

Camper Porn:drool: I think I am going to need a moment alone. Don't look!!!!! I have been designing out a camper for my s10 and debating back and forth on flat bed just to get more camper floor/truck storage space. This just might push me over the edge to rip the bed off the truck.

I looked at buying this pretty hard but it was just bad timing. I like the mods you have made to it.

Mag and Update Thanks guys. I got told it was out on Saterday night by a friend after I had already checked another grocery store. Sunday morning I had 3 copies and had read the article about my own truck 5 times. I tried to give them a cover shot but it was to late, the artwork was done for...

Ktm I own a KTM 950 ADV I ride it hard like 20,042 total miles with 4,500 miles of dirt and gravel mixed in their in 80 day's. I am not afraid to say it break's and part's are hard to find sometimes. I waited 6 day's to get part's from North Dakota shipped into Whitehorse, Yukon after calling...

Thanks Don't wish it, dream it then do it. Wishing involves tossing a lot if money in to a fountain at the mall or rubbing a bottle. Dreams keep you up at night and you can have alot of them, big ones and small ones. I don't think the fiberglass can take the load that I want to put on top so...

I am digging that laid back, load me up look of that frame. I ride a Salsa Las Cruces with 3 sets of tires dirt, dirt to the road and all road. I choose to build it up for all levels with strong wheels, disc brakes, drop bars, medium sized double road rings in the front and a wide gear range in...

bumper Thanks to all for all the kind words. wannabridin had to laugh when I typed your name as you have no idea how bad I wanna be riding:bike_rider:. This pic was at the end of the second day I think. I slapped it together pretty quick end of 3rd day it was painted. It's on the redo list as...

I had a similar feeling in the steering wheel after some desert running had to replace all my steering as each piece was worn out. Still stock.

Roll out. Roll out. With 417 miles in a little over two weeks of testing, loaded full of gear, tools, fridge, water tank, food and a full tank of fuel I roll out of town. And in to the storm of the century that was devastating every state from New Mexico to Michigan were I was going to be...

TiK ToK, TiK ToK, TiK ToK. TiK ToK, TiK ToK, TiK ToK. My garage is kind of like Viagra for trucks. Next to stock s10 2wd at the parts store. The rest of testing was for the majority good I still had thing's pop up but I could work around them. Snapping the speedo cable resulted in 4 hours at...

+/-20 days and counting +/-20 days and counting Step #1 and 5 was in full effect brake caliper, fender extensions, spring plate changes, shocks, steel, bolts, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. All and all things were good not great, short test drive then fix what's wrong and repeat add new...

Phase 2 going for broke, going broke and breaking. Action expresses priorities. Mohandas Gandhi Rolled it out and clean all the dust off. 9/21/10 :wings: I have a goal, not to take the big truck to California and beat on it again. Time till departure approximately 120...

Thanks Thanks for the complements. blaz The s10's that were in the magazines were both based in Colorado, regular cabs, 4.3l gas, 4x4 frames, all of our suspension work is similar. As for me the photos have been taken and tech sheets filled out so my part is done. It's just wait and see...

My question is what are you comparing it to full size, Dakota, Toyota. I know I would rather park a small truck then a big truck in a parking lot everyday. Their are plenty of times I can sneak my s10 into something off road that my full sizes does not fit. Pretty much anything will hold up to...
