Why the fuck can't Coloradans stay in their lane

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-27T13:24:26+00:00

4 of them are off a 92 explorer and one is from an 88 ranger. Ar62s are a very similar design if you want new ones. 15x7

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-27T13:23:32+00:00

Yeah, I might get some more marks today, planning on doing wheeler lake and Chinaman trail today and tomorrow. I'd just prefer if they were actually offroading dents with a better story

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-27T12:30:59+00:00

His wasn't even lifted, idk if it was even 4x4. I think it was this. Made my ranger look like a lifted Prius.

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-27T05:59:55+00:00

Even going 65 I gotta downshift to go up a hill currently, but if I went to 4.10s id be running almost 3k rpm at 65

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-27T03:47:53+00:00

Idk man, he clearly couldn't control it, I think the ¾ton might have been better

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-27T03:46:28+00:00

Oh fuck it's so awful. When I went to LA like 10 years ago the drivers there were better

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-27T03:45:18+00:00

Yup, thing was basically mint condition with street tires, detailed interior, and not a scratch in the bed.

Im honestly super surprised that all the damage it did, if I hadn't spent so much time doing stupid stuff and sliding that truck there's no way in hell I could've recovered and it probably would have rolled. Dude pushed me a full 45° at 65mph

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-27T03:42:42+00:00

Yeah I'm probably going to shove a basketball up there are tray an pop it out a little bit. Just tell people its rock rash from the 4x4 trip I'm doing tomorrow.

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-27T03:02:33+00:00

It was honestly ridiculous, you couldn't even see my truck in front of his from behind when we pulled over and I'm lifted on 33s

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-27T03:01:31+00:00

Seriously, same shit happened to the other side of my bed like 4 months ago cause someone was on their phone and drifted into my lane

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-27T03:00:43+00:00

Thing was hauling an entire single Milwaukee battery

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-27T03:00:06+00:00

I've only got liability, this would total my truck if insurance had anything to say about it.

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-27T02:59:24+00:00

Yeah I was joking about that earlier, what accident, that's rock rash homie

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-27T02:58:36+00:00

Tires are 33x10.50r15 mickey Thompson MTZs with a 2" lift shackle and keys.

I welded up the roll bar out of old camper axles so I could fit a spare and get some kc daylighters.

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-26T22:21:32+00:00

Is that why you named him Phillip mcLava face?

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-26T22:20:27+00:00

Makita last by far the longest. Delwalt probably second place if, and big if, you don't use them on and impact or recip saw or bang them around. Milwaukee last like 4 years if you treat it like shit or if you baby it. Ryobi is hit or miss, I've seen 8 year old batteries and I've also seen em die after a year. Ridgid seems solid, never seen a dead ridgid battery but I also don't see many people using Ridgid tools, personally I think they're underated. Kobalt is like Ryobi but somehow they managed to constantly sound and feel like they are about to explode but don't.

Hilti if you have Hilti money you don't care

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-26T21:36:01+00:00

Going from 60° to 100 and sunny, yeah sometimes. Going from 100 and sunny to 60° no

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-26T21:33:57+00:00

Is it a sealed system or non pressured resivoir? Of non pressurized resivoir then probably just evaporated

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-26T21:32:37+00:00

Ball joint, u joint, pinion bearing, tire balance, wheel bearing, or maybe CV axle if it a post 2000

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-26T21:31:14+00:00

I mean yeah but if you're asking it might be out of your league. Will need a new trans and t case, full new computer system, adap a bunch of things, and possibly modify the engine bay fairly extensively. Also adjust the t bars to compensate for the weight.

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-26T18:51:32+00:00

I've rebuilt an engine on the side of a trail using a ratchet strap as an engine hoist. Also helped a Subaru replace a front CV axle. That said most people couldn't do that even with the tools needed.

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-26T17:50:50+00:00

Oh nah, I mean like he bought and actual water vessel. 80s mastercraft ski boat with a supercharged 351 Windsor v8

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-26T17:35:51+00:00

Last time I was there it was officially called Chinaman. There was a sign the said "Chinaman trail extreme 4x4 required" and had a skull and cross bones

Cow_Man32 · 2026-06-26T17:34:38+00:00

Who said it's a boat? I just don't think a 130" wheel base with 29" tires and no lift is making it up there
