H3 RIP Backcountryislife

[reaper]

We'll miss you in here.

 

[Neo]

it's a sad day indeed ... there's a homeless H3 out there :shame:

 

[reaper]

But I did take all the salvageable parts before he passed on... rubber floor mats (mine were cloth), catback exhaust, a *working* 4:1 tcase... (pics will come!)... everything but the engine.

Can someone fill me in so I don't assume a Man just passed away leaving a wife and an Infant behind.

Thanks, Bebe

New Jeep.

 

[Expendable]

so this member isn't dead? but he will be more appropriately termed MIA or 'Gone Fishin'?

From another post:

I've been going through steering racks like crazy, last two times I've been out for 4 hours combined... I'm buying a rubicon tomorrow, getting a TJ, no steering rack on a dana 44.:giggle:

LOVE the 3, if I could have gotten away from the issues, it would have been awesome. This one also had electrical problems, locked me out of the rear door for 2 months straight once,

then again last week, power window on the driver door worked when it wanted, and I DESPISE the fact that you can't get rid of the auto locks on this thing, I HATE THEM WITH A PASSION.

(and the power is really bad at my altitude)

I'm bummed to become another one of the HEEP people, but I somehow got one that was a turd, and it just needs to go.

Bebe, he's safe. I have been exchanging PMs with him on parts. He got a TJ rubicon already lifted, like gunner said his Hummer is RIP

Kaleb, I hope you stick around! We wanna see pics of the TJ and the offroad runs you do...hummer or not we like wheeling

 

[Neo]

now that he has a HEEP, we will probably see more of him :wink: he'll be running around half naked in that thing :giggle:

 

[Pappibri]

Tis a sad day indeed. But when the Hummers are gone whats left? Not much of a choice really for those that like to do the kind of wheeling that we do...

 

[cgalpha08]

Sad day, hopefully you still decide to wheel with us

My bad.... poor humor. Only his h3 has passed on, hence the h3 forum. We wont miss him out there, only in here. :moe: Far less appropriate when you're sober I suppose!

 

[3Hummers]

Not much sleeping going to goon in the back of that Jeep. Kaleb, hope you have a tent.

My old exhaust:
Swapped for backcoutrnyislife's exhaust:

Here's his neutered hummer (poor thing):


And some other crazy things he does:

This is the STOCK snowmobile... before the turbocharger.

Well, I tell you what, I've seen pics of the disaster that is "Heep week"... and I'm sticking to black sheep week!!! Y'all might not have the spare parts I need anymore, but I'll still take you guys over that crew any day!!!

I actually took the back seat out of an unlimited today & laid down in it... I can ALMOST see it happening, but not with both of us & the little guy!!!

Actually, didn't finish the deal yesterday, and today got a lead on an 08 4 door. 80k, arb bumper with warn 9k & synthetic line, on 33's 4" lift, 6 speed. Tomorrow I'm going to stretch & see if I can do the 08 instead. More space, more wheelbase, better for vertical stuff we've got around here... should do the trick for us.

If not, I'll bring the 06 home tomorrow evening.



Oh and btw...
