Let's just say I ended up using the hi-lift jack, 2 other jacks, the winch, my on board air compressor, AND 3 other guys' help to get that wheel off and the spare on. ... and some more pics of the fun stuff before the above http://www.seapahn.us/jeep/gil405/jeep_pose2.jpg http://www.seapahn.us/jeep/gil405/jeep_pose1.jpg http://www.seapahn.us/jeep/gil405/jeep_mud.jpg Edited May 2, 2005 by Sip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nakharar Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Saw this program once about Iceland. Their favorite pastime is to go on excursions with their more than fancy SUVs and bikes. Which is not surprising given their ludicrously highy level of income. Their SUVs had inflatable tires and whenever a tire went flat the driver inflated it with small lighter/can. I'm not making this up, but I could hardly believe my eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sip Posted May 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 wow, werent you concerned (about getting stuck) before you got into that mud in the last pic? style_images/master/snapback.png Ha ha .. that's the rush usually. Knowing you might have to get out in that crap and try to hook the winch cable or a strap it must cost u a good sum of $ to maintain the car so that you can go on these adv over and over? style_images/master/snapback.png Oh don't even get me started! This might just be th most expensive addiction yet. But this one is not that costly since I got the road hazard warranty on the tires. They will be replacing it for free ... no questions asked By the way, I highly recommend "discount tire", aka "America's tire". I don't think I would buy tires from anywhere else ... their road hazard warranty just can't be beat. yes el Parrap sarap nstats eyi - tes bab chkaanelu 2 orov dzuk brnelu gnatsy jisht en tesak jri mej - ur du meqena es qshum style_images/master/snapback.png Eeeeeeeeew Nice crazy stuff Hey you are only young once.Sip If I were you next time if you see razer sharp rocks there might be a good chance you'll have another flat....Keep it up. style_images/master/snapback.png I plan to be young forever Saw this program once about Iceland.

Their SUVs had inflatable tires and whenever a tire went flat the driver inflated it with small lighter/can. I'm not making this up, but I could hardly believe my eyes. style_images/master/snapback.png Oh I know exactly what you're talking about. Those were some really fancy Toyota Landcruisers ... VERY well set up ... I think they were running something like 44" tires (more than a meter in diameter). Wheeling in those kinds of conditions is just insane! As far as the lighter fluid trick, it's a fairly cool way to pop the tire back on the bead I have an engine driven air compressor in the jeep so I can pop the tire back on the bead if it ever rolls off. But this one was a "flat" with a huge gash on the side of the tire so there was no way to fix it. Here are a few more pics: http://www.seapahn.us/jeep/gil405/jeep_flat3.jpg http://www.seapahn.us/jeep/gil405/jeep_flat4.jpg http://www.seapahn.us/jeep/gil405/jeep_pose4.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The back is just mud from working under the jeep ... style_images/master/snapback.png Could the 'boldness' in the front have to do with leaving big blocks of cheese on your head? Great pics Sip - it's a good thing you guys bother carting those enormous jacks with you on your trips.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sip Posted May 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 Not really flipped so far thankfully but I did flop it over last year in Utah. http://www.seapahn.us/misc/moab04/moab_roll2_tn.jpg http://www.seapahn.us/misc/moab04/moab_roll1_tn.jpg http://www.seapahn.us/misc/moab04/sip_flip_tn.jpg http://www.seapahn.us/misc/moab04/jeep_flop_tn.jpg ... and here's the video of it going over. There was pretty much no damage because it went over very slow. Just the license plate holder in the back was bent and the top door hinge. I paid a repair shop in town $10 and they heated and knocked the hinge back in place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sip, surprisingly I noticed a minor detail about your jeep, "Move it" is in mirror writing. Very creative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
