I posted on Facebook already, btu I used to refuel those back when I was in Iraq in early 2003 for the initial invasion of Iraq. The CH-53E helicopter I flew on and worked on had 16k lbs of internal fuel tanks we carried since there were no bases for the convoys to stop at back then, so we landed in the desert and they pulled up for gas. $50 mil mobile gas station with .50 cal machine guns. :D I'm pretty sure all those axles are driven, since it's designed to pull it's loads through adverse terrain.

awesome info, thanks!! :thumb:

oh, and i kinda figured it had more than one drive axle but, i didn't want to assume. thanks for clearing that up :D

Fj.. Was pretty setup for wheeling. No rear bumper, bushwacher flairs, lift, etc.. All I noticed was how much of an angle his rear track bar had.

So a guy down the street just bought this thing. Sorry for the poor pics, I didn't want to get out of my jeep to check it out in fear I would say something to offend. He told me to check out this video link, but to be careful, I might want to trade my jeep after I see it. I will let the video do the talking.......I'll be on the trail wheeling in my rig tomorrow ;)

Did some wheeling out in the mountains today and on the way back in stopped to check out the car show near my house. Found this really cool old original "SUV", with just as cool of a story behind it.

This is at the weekly Indian Bend car show, isn't it? I used to go to that weekly.
