NORCAL Prairie City Meet and Greet Dec 9, 2017

Looks like fun. I definitely would have been odd man out. 2nd gen 2wd

 

Do it!

 

Nice turn out guys!! Wish I was there

 

Nahh, there's fun to be had with 2wd there too. Heck there were 2 4xs you could've pulled out, easily. And, Matt and Joon make FRICKIN" awesome 4WD bacon cheese burgers. Thanks to D and Shane too.

 

Now that would have been a cool picture.

 

And here’s Warren climbing the Pyramid.

Thanks for editing out all the struggling I did getting up the last step.

 

A few of my favorite pictures from the day.

 

Getting stuck at the very beginning was a little ridiculous. I was buried so deep I couldn't open my door. I'm glad that I was able to give Joon a chance to practice his recovery skills. The two high centered trucks side by side was fantastic.

 

Yep, plenty of room to pickup some serious speed, just don't do it in the pit area, Warren knows a little something about that.

 

Same

 

Sometimes you just gotta test your the sliders installed the night before...

Did you get all the mud out yet?

 

The Ranger was really nice when she gave me my warning. Heck, I didn't know and it was such a perfect spot for full throttle sideways cornering.

 

The mud is everywhere, even on the roof. It's gonna be tough to get all in one wash. You gotta come down for one of our meets, we make great burgers.

 

Damn Warren, Shane’s truck might have some chrome but it doesn’t have the Cooties. You’re even leaning away.

 

I'm probably going to be finding mud for the next few months. I spent a lot of time hosing down my truck last night and my drive was is an absolute wreck now.

 

Joon, what's up with your truck? Looks like it's been brown nosing.....

 

Have you looked in the engine bay yet? I’m a little afraid of what I’m going to find. I’m going out soon to take a look. All I know is, water came over my hood when I went into that mud pit.

 

I've got a "high water" mark all around the truck. I doesn't look like it quite reached the hood, just mid headlight. Good idea to check the engine bay. I'm really looking forward to getting the air relocate done now.

 

Yeah, it wasn’t deeper than hood height but when I dropped in, the wave came over my hood. That was the first time I ever felt like my truck was floating in water. Eerie feeling.

 

It looked like you guys were floating!

 

After seeing my truck in the light of day this morning I decided not to try to wash it myself.

 

I hope you tipped the poor guys. They must've been like, "WTF? This is how I start my Sunday morning?"

 

Yes I tipped them. I was worried they were going to turn me away. Still plenty of dirt if you look underneath.

 

Hahaha nice!!
Now time to clean off the driveway residue!

 

I'm on round 2 of attempting to remove most of the mud but it was worth it. I stopped by the car wash before coming home and used $10 in quarters at the pressure washer. Wasn't about to bring that mess home.

I dented up my stock skid plate pretty good, any aftermarket recommendations? Also, crossing my fingers I can get some BAMF sliders as those are a must.

 

Rci or budbuilt is the way to go!

 

get an RCI steel engine plate cover.

 

Lmao! I just spent $15 in quarters at the car wash.



Yes... these are after pictures. I think I missed a spot. But at least the suspension got cleaned pretty good.


I think I said this before but I’m never purposely driving through mud ever again. Maybe.

 

RCI! Or buy a take off TRD pro.
