Even the .190 (stronger) wheels aren't very heavy by any means. Don't go with the light duty ones. There are still rocks at Dumont that will very easily bend the blue label wheels (.125). Remember the lighter the weight, the less strong that will be (most of the time). Bend rim = no air in the tire. Now that I think about it I may have the.160 black labels which are strong yet lightweight. Here's the description for the Douglas .160 black labels This unique wheel is extremely strong yet very lightweight giving you maximum strength and minimum rolling mass. Great for those who ride sand dunes and need a little more strength for light jumping. The black label wheel design utilizes the highest quality .160 thick, 6061 heat treated aircraft grade aluminum. If you go on Rocky Mountain's ite they have a ton of wheels, some black too.

+2 on the Douglas .190's

I didn't even notice.

Skat trak Extreme Haulers all the way. I have had mine on my Raptor for about 8 or 9 years now. They are still in great shape and I don't even think I have ever had one go flat on me now that I think about it. I've got my money's worth ten times over with those paddles! You won't be disappointed. ITP's are heavy and they're junk. Ditch em.

It did?

It got fixed right back up the next day. Bert just wanted to b*tch. It helps us feel better when it's hot.

Sounds like some good ole folk fun right there. Now if you can just learn how to take and post some pics from these long dune trips you'll all be taking you can rub it in some more. hahaa Congrats to Rocket's wife!

haha I know that threw me off too. I fixed it though.

Check the date on this post. He posted this in 2008. I'm guessing he found somebody by now.

No I've never been down to see them.

Anything new? Not me! Just thinking how many people have sold off many of their toys but have also bought new ones over the past few months. For us it will be mostly the same setup, except the majority of our duning will be in the car. I don't know how many more trips the Raptor has left on her but so far it gives no indications of ever blowing up...YET! lol The only thing I need to do to the ATC70 is get a nice HID headlight and replace the chain & tensioner. I am looking forward to doing a little duning with that badboy ever since I watched bustinbs' videos from the regatta. That looked like a hoot! A nice wet weekend would be perfect for it. What will you be duning in next season? If you have any pics of your rides for next season, please post them up! Same rail Good ole faithful and the most fun you can have in camp...

I was referring to First Choice off Eastern. They never gave me anything extra for mentioning DDR, but they let me fill my Z71 short bed up pretty damn full for $40. I thought that was a killer deal. I never got a truck load for $20 though.

Hit up the tree service place. That stuff is pretty small.

It was mentioned in another recent thread and it's on the homepage.

Hahaa I just realized where he posted this. Jackasss! Lol

Damn Dale! How much of that thing is still gonna be a Commander? LOL

Any idea how much longer you will be down there? Glad you are staying busy, mafacka!

I would guess highs in the mid 90's. http://www.weather.com/weather/monthly/UTSPCPS:13 -The one way trail is always fun. -If camped at the meadow (preferred), my favorite line to take is up to the left all the way until it ends, then come down the middle through the trees and then it dumps you down a steep trail into the dunes. I'm sure you have no idea what I'm talking about if you've never been there, but that's the best I can describe it. haha Just go exploring but watch for drop offs. That place is gorgeous but dangerous. Try staying away from the right side (south end) during hours that the sun is up sigh. There are no shadows and it is nearly impossible to see some of the drop offs coming back from that end going north.

wtf dude!??? I'll know as it gets closer. I still need to weld up my broke a$ pipe on my Raptor.

Need more votes!

I don't think I will be bringing my hauler or sandcar. My generator is having issues once again and I don't feel like dealing with all that in this heat. I'm down to roll out EARLY Sun AM though with the quad. That would be the 14th. I'm pretty sure Chadwick is in too. Maybe I can round up Sand_700R and sandslug for this ride as well.

over $5500 spent

The richer the blonde...the dumber they are? http://autos.yahoo.c...der-bender.html

So jealous. One of these days. Any more pics from your trip, Pat?

Some good ones this month. Vote now!
