Your pictures you just posted makes it look wide stanced. Ocean city isn't too far away from me. Maybe we can hit the trails around batsto/basss river sometime. I used to explore that entire area when I went to Stockton.

If you see any deals on 33" tires or axles 4.10 lemme know. Thanks man


I have 15x8 3.75 backspaced d windows, with 33x12.50 baja claws. And yeah for sure! I'm always down

I don't think it's that dangerous or any more dangerous than gas. My local trash trucks are run on it or natural gas

Much more dangerous. Gases are much more combustible than liquids plus the garbage trucks don't bounce off of rocks.

That's true. I was just thinking about a set up to substitute a little gas for propane. Like run a small 1lb or 5lb propane tank right to the air intake and regulate it just to test. A small tank like that wouldn't hurt

Probably not and you could make sure it's empty when you wheel. As long as you could figure out how to back off the fuel when spraying the propane. Not sure how much $$$ it would save you though.

Wouldn't the O2 sensors pickup the change and cut gas back a bit?

Now for the Hydrogen option. Took me a minute to find it but I knew I had one somewhere in the shop. You'll need one of these:

I built it a year ago but then lost interest in the project.

I researched it a bit and the sensors are "supposed" to cut back on fuel, but I'm not sure either. Maybe ill try it out and get back to you guys. I already have a small hole in my intake so one step done!

I made one in like 8th grade as a project and it was cool but I didn't power anything with it. Most of what I just read online said it doesn't work too well
