riding with the friends beater (pics)

[256offroad]

well it all started with a buddy of mine that bought a wrecked/stolen jeep from a local wrecker company for $600 bucks and decided to make it a beater jeep. it already had a 4" lift on it and it had been run into a tree in the front pass side. it was stolen by a bunch of hillbilly meth heads that used it for making runs in the woods...and well were running from the cops and hit a tree in the process.

so he welded the front and rear, and the axle joint caps. put some freebie 35" Krawlers new radiator and tubed the front.

well we took it out saturday at the King of The hill site (http://www.koth4x4.com/) for a test run...ill let the picks do justice. i was there for recovery and for some play time.

Popped a cap and knocked the ball joints out?

Looks like a fun ride!

A bad day on the trail is better than a good day at work!

well when he "poped the cap" that was welded to the ears of the shafts...it pretty much broke the joint while breaking the ears on the stub shaft...while pulling him backwards...the ball joints gave out.

Looks like the most fun you could have with $600 bucks. Well, with your clothes on anyway :laugh3:
