    Four Corners Tour, Spring 2014

    I went with some friends to Mesa Verde during EJS about 10 years ago - best EJS activity ever, after the trails of course. We also saw wild turkeys and bighorn sheep at Mesa Verde. Thanks for the awesome pictures and write-up. I will definitely drag the family down that way again, they will...

    Hanging Tree Trail (founders day) wheeling with most of the trail pioneers.(SNOW)

    HTT James, I down loaded all my pictures with Chad and Jeannette and with Pat and Tasheena, so call them if you would like to get the images. Probably use a jump drive to capture them easily.

    Hanging Tree Trail (founders day) wheeling with most of the trail pioneers.(SNOW)

    HTT I will try to add some pictures to this thread. Most of the original Hanging Tree group was there Sunday. Devon Parson, the patriarch of the group, couldn't make it and was sorely missed.

    Ups guy brought me a new toy box

    I''ve used a similar HDPE pipe welder (Drisco pipe), but on 16-inch diameter dredge lines. Done right, you get full strength welds.

    THE VOLVO...Ugly semi truck crawler hauler build thread

    Detroit diesels are the main reason that I have to use hearing aids. Dad had an Oliver Super 990 tractor when I was in grade school, that I ran for 12 to 14 hours per day during summers. That beast had a 3-52 supercharged Detroit. Then I drove a GMC Astro 95 with a Detroit 8V-92 for a while...

    Parting out white '98 XJ

    I saw the identical twin to this XJ this weekend about 5 miles East of Henefer. White XJ, missing front and rear axles and sitting on a flatbed trailer. Is this your XJ, or coincidence?

    THE VOLVO...Ugly semi truck crawler hauler build thread

    Cheston - better snap this one up. I would go broke with the first re-fueling. Better have a LOT of off-street parking. http://www.ksl.com/index.php?nid=218&ad=28721596&cat=99&lpid=1&search=&ad_cid=4

    Bad Idea buggy

    So instead of going smaller, you're going bigger??? Then your wife can drive new massive buggy to rescue you in your original buggy? Good plan.

    THE VOLVO...Ugly semi truck crawler hauler build thread

    I have an old school 36-inch semi sleeper cab that I thought would be perfect for your new hauler, but I see it already has an extended cab and absolutely no extra room to install it. That rig is looking really awesome. I'll probably get startled all over again if I pull up behind you in the...

    ChestonScouts 72 Scout.....not really a build thread, build thread

    Great news. Scouts were intended to be used for family outings. One of my top projects for next year is to get Becca's Scout II back on the road as a daily driver. It even has lockers at both ends and on-board air, so Wyoming winters can be conquered. Instead of cutting metal, can you just...

    Gonna need some Russians...

    An idea that might actually work is to use a large generator to power stock tank heaters. They are very efficient for melting ice and there is no excess heat going up into the vehicle, with possible fire danger. We keep 2 stock tanks open all winter here in temperatures that get to -30F. They...
