Well, I had a blast out playing in the mud today.

Today was the "Maiden Voyage" and did manage to get it stuck. It's got 38" tires and 7" lift and you could barely see the top of the back tire on the passenger side.

Is that a "real deal" half cab or some redneck engineering...lol.Just curious.Are those the tires Jeffspower traded you for the blazer tub?

Slick71 · 06-02-2007, 08:20 PM

You got it...redneck engineering! It works great for this rig...keeps the mud off my head. Yup..those are the tires that Jeff had....I put em' to good use today.

Cut down factory hard top. (notice the window frame)

Looks like alot of water mixed in with that mud...or is that mud mixed in with the water?

ess chop top mang.

LUV2XCLR8 · 06-03-2007, 07:50 PM

Got Mud?

Slick71 · 06-03-2007, 08:45 PM

Ya...more Water than Mud...I think. We had about 6 inches of rain in the last week. The "chopped top" doesn't look the best..but it's really easy to get off and on by myself.

I really like the idea of the half top - mines in kinda crap condition anyways and I am going to look at a replacement top tomorrow.....maybe i will end up with a halfer as well.
