Had a bunch of similar rigs go through here a few years back. the guys had come over from iceland, they were out cruising around the arctic and detoured through yellowknife!

That's the Arctic Trail Group... :)

They're well known, do you know if they had any power adders on those trucks ?

Not sure what exactly was done on them (IIRC they used to have complete build details on their website which is in the pics!)

We had seen them around town for a few days and actually caught up to them a little ways down the highway when we were going out out of town for sled races. Didnt have much time to stop and chat as we were running late so it was pretty much just a 'hi, bye' thing

ok, i haven't looked on their site till' now :)

didn't find the specs on the trucks but i found some pictures from the ride from Yellowknife.

looks like it was a cold trip:

It does get a little cold! down around -50c before any windchill sometimes!

Havent looked at their website in a few years myself, guess they changed it because they used to have the full truck buildup posted.

P-50 arctic grade diesel is a must at some points during the winter :D

Wow, i thought we had cold stuff in our glaciers.... we get down to around -40°c before windchill...

i bet the extra -10°c is crazy... -50°c wow...

sucks when you get a 60km/h+ wind ontop of that, then its really F'n cold!

Gotta love it when you cant even go outdoors because any slightest bit of exposed skin will freeze almost instantly. Usually doesnt get quite that bad right here in yellowknife, but a little farther north up at the mines its not uncommon!

angelic0- 05-08-2009 05:14 PM

60km/h wind, how windy is that in meters / second ?

we get all the way to 35 meters / second... snowstorms here...

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

google helped me out.... 60km/h is around 16m/s

35 m/s = 126 km/h

the air here is also i beleive more moist..

and it's also very unpredictable, cause we have seas all around.. wind can turn directions in just few minutes...

angelic0- 05-16-2009 10:34 PM

nmlakerat 05-19-2009 02:42 PM

now that would be fun. i have a truck i could take ill just order some 54's lol

angelic0- 05-19-2009 02:54 PM

be sure to get guidance, you don't want to fall down into one of the cracks...

44" would be enough, even 38" would do the trick...

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

btw, you can also rent a Glacier truck here if you want to...

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

For the Cummins guys...

54" BANKS tuned 500hp Dodge Ram

Awesome Videos , Looks too damn cold for me

whiskyBound 05-28-2009 02:56 PM

I just want to be able to sport those tires. What list of modifications do they usually do? I noticed axles surprised me a little as I thought the 1 ton stockers would be fairly stout for snow wheeling..Tell you what pull up to a bar in their neck of the woods with the biggest truck..Now that's actually saying something that cummins just looks SHARP

CAMSHAFT 08-14-2009 08:25 PM

Makes me want some snow up here.....!

eastncountryboy 09-13-2009 12:36 PM

04redstroker 09-14-2009 03:15 PM
