Crawling with my FJ40 (death to 56k) - 04.11.2006, 08:19 PM

Went crawling again today with Kerbesäge, I played around with the setup a little and rearranged some rocks on the dried up water fall in may back yard and went wheeling.

Waterfall, first attempt:



Almost had it.

Waterfall, second attempt:

Made it to the top, yay!

Now the fun part, going down the waterfall:

Very nice, Camel! The pictures look awesome, like out of a mag or something, very professional!
And the crawle itself looks sweet! Like I said elsewhere, the 2.2 tires give it a scale look. I love it!

And you sure have a nice crawler spot in your backyard, too.

Thanks for the replies!

I made a vid a short time ago, but I guess I never posted it here.

Awesome truck. After seeing your truck it makes me want to build another crawler.

I might have to wait for this this though
