Re: ronb's h1
I finally got my radios mounted to the cage and wired up. I need to get some foam on the bars so I won't knock myself koo-koo on unexpected bumps! I've done a little testing and need to adjust my suspension limit straps for a bit more articulation. Might hit Big Bear this weekend to play some more ...

Re: ronb's h1
got home for the halloween weekend to hang with my son. Finally got to check out the truck and snap a few pictures. I haven't messed around with the limit straps yet...but with some tweaking I'll be able to get at least another 2 inches of height out of the suspension. Right now with 39.5 iroks (at ...

Re: ronb's h1
Odessa is a tight squeeze for sure (perhaps pulling the trailers through there wasn't the best idea) and there were some tight squeezes on Fordyce for Rick as well. I've been here in Manhattan since the end of July and will probably be here until May 1st. I'm hoping to go to Moab the 1st week of ...

Re: ronb's h1
It's been a while -- to update, my truck is done. However, I haven't even seen it in person yet :cry: I went to NY for a short 4 week job that turned into an 8 month deal. Now I can pay for all the work but have missed a bunch of cool trips/trails (Fordyce, Moab, several So Cal trips). My mechanic ...

Re: ronb's h1
thanks for the hummer-love -- hope to be on the trails with it as soon as I get it back from the shop. I just had the factory "roll cage" beefed up a bit, now I'm adding 39.5 iroks, beadlocks, 2" lift, front locker, and a rock-ram. A money-pit, but a fun one. Cage in progress -- from the inside ...

Re: ronb's h1
I saw the trucks afterwards -- looks like quite a bit of paint was left behind. Some lube on the sides of the trucks may have helped?! Been through alot of tight squeezes with those guys, but glad I happened to miss that one.

Re: ronb's h1
unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) I couldn't make the Calico clean-up and trail "corking." I can't believe the boys made it through, let alone with the trailers! I've seen the pictures and that is a pretty darn narrow trail for a hummer. A few of us were at the Dishpan clean-up back in March ...

Re: ronb's h1
don't you run with the Psycho Squad? yep those are the guys I usally run with. We've shelved a summer tip to Moab or the Rubicon -- been busy getting our race truck ready. It's still in the testing phase but hope to run the Vegas to Reno. We are very excited about it and kudos must go to Rob ...

Re: ronb's h1
yep, I'm there as well. I like to run the crazy trails with other h1's (so I can steal parts and aks when I break them) but I've run plenty of easy to med trails with the hummerx guys as well as the adv4x4 guys.

ronb's h1
ok, thought I'd check in here from Adv4x4. I've enjoyed wheeling with the guys over there for the past few years and hope to continue the fun here. I have a 97 hummer open top. It is close to stock except some suspension work I've done to it. I bagged it last year and like it very much, I have a ...
