Re: The Story Of A Cummins Suburban (Lots Of Pics)
This is a short vid that Larry shot of it climbing the face and getting into place for the evening.

Re: The Story Of A Cummins Suburban (Lots Of Pics)
Moses....you might have posted this already....but there are A LOT of posts in this thread lol! When you mounted the Cummins in your burb, did your original engine cross member stay in the stock place? Also, can you provide any detail pics of your motor mounts? Just needing the specifics because I might put a Cummins in another burb I have. Thanks again. By the way, love the travel pics......

"Hey, I would like to be in there"
"Larry, give it up already" Two quotes that made me bust up laughing.

Re: The Story Of A Cummins Suburban (Lots Of Pics)
This is a view of camp that night: That is Larry and my boy up on top of the hill. He has a great pic from up there that I need to steal and post up.
 This is the pic of the view from the truck that I sent out in the morning (had cell service here too).  After the load out, down the trail a bit:  I thought this looked cool:  Closer. I like how the dirt has eroded from around the bottom.  Gratuitous truck shot:  Some generic scenery:  Larry had a Code 14 on the way in: (I had a Code 60 on the way out)  More generic scenery:  Another gratuitous truck shot:  More scenery. It is very difficult to convey in pictures how awesome the scenery was in this area. I need a super-mega wide angle lens, but even that would not do it. Horizon to horizon. Amazing.  After we got back to the highway, we aired up and I found out my new compressor was only good for 2.5 tires. This is good when you have a motorcycle, but I happened to bring a truck on this run so it was not so good. Luckily Larry's compressor was good for at least six tires so we finished off my other 1.5 with his. After we hit the highway we rolled through a massive area of petrified sand dunes.   Pulling a hill that was part of the Hole in the Rock Trail long, long ago:  Random road shot that I liked:  Yep, that's where we are going:

Re: The Story Of A Cummins Suburban (Lots Of Pics)
The thing i like the most about this rig is that it just works. Thousands and thousands of miles on it, and it just keeps on keeping on. I really hope my 2 diesel swaps turn out this way.

That last pic you posted was something we saw on our way home Texas when we bought our truck. Burb looks good!

Re: The Story Of A Cummins Suburban (Lots Of Pics)
What happened here Nick? Did you fall asleep or something and forget you have us all strung out waiting for more pictures? It’s been 8 days for crying out loud!

Re: The Story Of A Cummins Suburban (Lots Of Pics)
Oh sure. The old "I was in the hospital" excuse. Seems like all that laying around would have given you ample opportunity to do some photo editing and downloading.

So what were you doing for the 7 days you were not in the ER and hadn't posted. We figured you had a long convalescence in there with tubes and machines that go 'bing' etc. etc. You know, laying around on your lazy ass. Not something as simple as 'my whatzit hurts when I push here and here and here' and the Dr says your finger is broken. Come on! Details dude.
