She's not a rock climber or trail blazer, she's a beach buggy that takes me fishing and surfing.....

I like the mounting of the rod holder. Have any more detailed pictures of that?

Dan.... I bolted two 10" heavy duty "L" brackets between the tow hooks, and tow hook brackets, a piece of 5/4" X 6" mahogany deck wood carriage bolted to the up right ends of the "L" brackets, and the rod holders are bolted to the mahogany that has several coats of spar urethane....

Here's a couple more shots of her on the beach.....

Took a couple more of her while checking out an old dirt road access to a back bay fishing hole......

These can also serve as my "before" photos, after I get my 2.5" Daystar lift kit installed I'll snap a few more off for "after" photos.......

Thanks WickedKJ, but it's no stranger to the back woods trails either..... :wink:

Got the "after lift" front end alignment done this morning, then took her out on a couple fire & hunting trails in the County Park this afternoon. No rocks to climb, and it's been dry so the mud holes aren't what they were a month ago, but I managed to have a nice ride and played in what little bit of mud I could find.....
