Good luck on this project! I can't say that I have seen a tracker on the trails. It will certainly be something different. I love to see different ideas on the trail.
I tell you what would be sweet is to take the running gear out of that Toyota truck sitting beside and put a straight front axle under it and wheel the mess out of it. ;D

Ok got the BL in finally, I ended up using the 2x2 tubing with some hmm engineering. I prob would have gotten alot more done if I hadnt had all the help, as shown below heh.    Hopefully I'll get my new milemarker hubs and 1.5" coils spacers in this week and I'll be trailering this to Grayrock. Heh, think I'm gonna leave the drivetrain in the Yota, we have been through alot together and just finally gone through the motor and gotten everything running right and besides just the v-6 ,transmission and T-case is longer than the Geo altogether. |

That has to be one of the best looking trackers that i have seen. I know all about that help you are talking about. My 3 year old son was helping me not long ago when he emptied all of the screwdrivers out of my tool box and put them in the exhaust pipe from the engine side. I had to take the whole system out to just shake the drivers out.

If you see any trucks with big green letters C A F B on the windshields, that will be the group that I work with. When we first went to Gray rock for May madness last year we were all suprised by all the different clubs that showed, and I made the Joke that we could say we were from the CAFB club since we all have the base stickers on our trucks. Well someone went out and got us decals. One of the guys said it could stand for Can't Afford Fixing Better heh. I will be on the lookout of any GTJC stickers out there. Three of us are planning on being there at noon Fri so we will be there all weekend.

Yeah it was cool meeting you, I was surprised at what the Geo could pull itself thru. Thought I could swear I heard it saying "I think I can, I think I can." We didnt get to ride as much as would have liked, but we did finally get the J-10 rolling again even if was only 2wd. He broke upper and lower ball joints on both sides up front, snapped both front driveshafts, and snapped a tie rod. I was hoping to get some pic's of the Geo in action, but I gave my step-son's friend the camera, so when I got home and was downloading the camera and found out he seemed to forget to point in my direction because the only pictures I got were either trucks(not mine) or hot babes... Guess thats what I get for entrusting it to a 15 year old heh.
