Default My various off-road adventures

I went wheeling this weekend...that is to say, my wife went wheeling and I rode. We ended up breaking the front drive on her transfer case. (Video lower in this post) But we still had a blast. Apparently our little blazers are fairly capable in 2wd Low as well.

Here are some stuffs:

Looked like major fun, minus the damage. I am jealous!

Meh, you win some you lose some. Now I just have to find a new transfer case to pop in there. Strange that it went out when it did. I have done plenty worse to my Blazer without problems.

Why didn't the rear tires spin when you were trying to go up that rock/hill structure? It was in 4x4 because the front wheels spun but the backs seemed locked.

Hmmm...

Great time and looks like it is past time for a locker in the rear!

Well...this adventure wasn't mine, and it doesn't involve a Blazer...but it does involve a ZR2 and my brother. =D

You remember my brother's truck guys? Looks like this:


Well...he went wheeling this past weekend at Barnwell Mountain near Gilmer, TX. He brought back a few beauty marks I am jealous of...





He was upset about the mirror at first...but then he discovered the electric motor still worked as well as the heater! XD Anyway...thought I'd share. Enjoy!
