Hey all, looking for some pics and specs of ya'lls screws in action! what you have done to them/ and whether or not you would rather have a SCAB for offroading.


Just trying to decide whether or not to build the FX4 up or not when i get back from afghanistan...

 

How many times do I have to say this to you lol

BUY A TRAIL TRUCK!!!!! You can get a great base trail truck for the same price as a lift on these trucks.

 

Fact, 78-79 f150 and don't look back.

 

hahaha, im not talking about serious off roading, just the weekend warriors out there.

i just wanna see some screws off the beaten path.. although to be honest, I dont know if i would take the screw anywhere off road but an open field haha.. Thing is WAY too big to take onto trails..

 

Truth. When I was down at the beach running some trails with other guys from R/F I was hitting trees all over the place lol. Rocked in the mud though

 

lol,and that is where most of my wheeling' would be done, in the mud. Iowa doesnt have a lot of trails to go on, the ones that are there are pretty much reserved for jeeps.. So most guys do a lot of mudding, and snow wheeling

 

If your goin old. I would get a 75-76. They are nicer looking IMO. Regular cab step side!

 

Some good vids of them in action. http://www.youtube.com/results?searc...road+f150&aq=f

 

as much as i love the older trucks, i most likely will not get one...

 

well i don't have any pics in action, but i have a screw and wouldn't change a think, i have a short bed which helps, but i have taken this truck on some steep and sharp turns, my brother has a jeep so i go with him sometimes and i have never got stuck... and have had to get him out a couple of times, if you are not going to complain about scratches or brushing up against bushes then get a screw, i take mine huning all the time and have to switchblade through trees and trails and yes i get decent scratches but that is what i bought her for and she cleans up nice.... but get a light color that will help with scratches a ton... sorry wish i had pics but usually when i am out there i don't worry about pics and just think about having fun

 

Hit up OGTerror

 

Pole Hill Rd here in CO


Moab



I don't do anything too wild...but I have done trails rated 4 out of 5. The S-crew doesn't feel as capable as my '95 Bronco XL did...but the Bronco didn't cruise the same either.

If I had the budget to have yet another vehicle, I'd build a trail truck for trails and a bagged Crew for cruising....it's just not in the cards.

 

thanks man, i have a screw already. Its DSG, so not the lightest color lol.. Not tooo worried about scratches and what not, its a truck.. As long as i am the one who put them there, its all good.

 

Where is that road, more specifically? I see you're in Longmont. I'm in Broomfield and always looking for new places to go!

 

yeah, that is true, i had my buddy in my truck and we was freaking out at it and i told him to settle down it isn't even his truck, an i wanted to get to where the elk were so we had to drive a ways then hike the rest.... you will have to post pics of your outings when you get back though, and thanks for serving also...
