Default Got the 28" Zilla's on

I am excited, we are going to H/M this weekend and I get to try out my new setup. 28" Mudzilla's with NO wheel spacers (some of you already know about me and spacers). Floodrunner is sending me a H/C kit, I should have it before we go. I am so AMPED, I just hope this thing holds up all weekend. I have had some bad luck. I am almost up to 34 hours and 300 miles, hopefully this is a turning point towards better luck. My seat height is 39". "Un-stinking-believable". Check out my pics, I put new ones up last night. In some of them you can see an Xplorer next to it, that is stock height. That will give you an idea of the lift mine has!

Floodrunner is the man!

I bought a Heel Clicker from him on Friday, I am holding it in my hand today!

AMPED? Oh yeah, even more than, when I put this original thread up today.

Only thing I wish now, is this "HEEL CLICKER" could work like "The Wizard of Oz". There's no place like mud holes, There's no place like mud holes, There's no place like mud holes!

Guess I will have to wait until Friday![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]

Since you had concerns about going to the 28s (regarding ratio) over the 27s try something this weekend probably in high gear that you have done previously like a certain climb or whatever and let us know how the 28s perform vs. your previous setup

I would like a Ranger, but nowhere ride it. The trails here at Wayne Nat'l Forrest are not friendly to anything wider than 50 inches. They build the bridges to that measurement. Sometimes you could cross the creek, but sometimes you HAVE to use the bridge!(STUPID BOLDERS)(is that spelled right? Looks wierd!) Anyway, I have to settle on this lift, or I would seriouly consider 3G's for the Gorilla 6" lift!

I got a H/C off of Floodrunner, so I will not have a good comparison, for the tire sizes!

This stupid clock in the bottom right of the pc is not going quick enough, I want to ride!!!!!!!!!!!

Forgot about the heelclicker. You are supposed to ride it without the hc and then with it for that free r&d report to us. lol.

I did think about that, I have about 3 acres around the corner that I could do a LITTLE test with. Couple hills and a couple straight-a-ways. Maybe a few hard acceleratons, drag race style, just to see the difference. I'll post what I find out!

wow looks awesome truly impressive.

hope nothing brakes on you but swinging big tires in mud will always increase wear and is a huge amount of load on a motor.

thanks for the compliment, I hope nothing breaks too,[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I don't try to spin the tires fast, I just try to keep them barely turning over, enough to keep the quad moving! This works so much better than "***** to the Wall" wide open!
