I fabed everything in my dad's shop, bumpers front and rear w/swing out tire carrier, 10 point cage, rock-sliders, Sprung over and rotated for caster, custom tie-rod and draglink w/heim joints, custom air intake to turbo, K&N filters, synthetic lubes, custom exhaust out of turbo. 1/8" thick diamond plate floors, gas tank skid plate, 2" shackle lift, custom driveshafts, Trailmaster shocks w/steering stabilizer 4.88 gears front and rear, Lincoln locked front, Aussie locked rear, spring plate brackets for strength, steering box bracket around frame, complete new rear brakes and stainless steel lines, new master cylinder, Grant steering wheel, Off-road light on and under, JVC stereo (gotta have the tunes!) New to me red and black racing seats w/4point harness, New 3 core custom fit radiator, hoses, switched from the square 1980 headlights to the round 75 headlights and grill, blocked draft tube, CDR system to reburn crankcase vapors, that's all I can think of right now...
 

I go wheeling in a number of places:

1. Barnwell Mountain, Gilmer, Texas Loose rock, hillclimbs, yellow clay, slick as snot when it rains and kinda comes off

2. Wheeling Ranch, Nocona, Texas Lots of granite rocks purging from the ground, very sharp, red clay and sand, Red clay is also slick as snot when it rains, and does NOT like to come off your tires

3. Marshal Creek, Trophy Club Texas, flat muddy land mostly, not much fun.

4. Katemcy Rocks, Mason, Texas. Texas' version of Moab, instead of sandstone, pink granite boulders, VERY good traction, better than Moab I've heard.

5. My own backyard, and dad's cattle pastures. Whenever, wherever...

Also forgot to mention, I'm running 35" BFG Mud Terrains.  Not the size you guys are after, but it suits me fine for daily driving.  Sorry about the crappy resolution and off center images, it was a free camera! :)
