Ah that makes a bit more sense. It always sucks when you have something so critical take forever. It’s not like a clock spring or something that you can keep driving on. Stoked you’ll be getting it back soon I’m sure.
Jesus what a saga. Being a former parts manager… I can honestly say it’s likely someone there dropped the ball and didn’t do much to correct it. Hopefully this is the end of the issues for you guys.
Yeah and it needs to be brought back… even the entrance to hells revenge is complete paved now… the harder trails in Moab and sand hollow luckily still get you pretty quick but… I’m finding that more and more people are able to go further in than they should and by then, it’s too late.
As others have mentioned and it’s not spoken about enough is that just because you have a capable rig, AWD or 4WD doesn’t mean much as most folks just throw a credit card at a showroom new rig and then get themselves into trouble.
Eddie hit the nail on the head. Most people lack the skill even...
This sign in particular makes me happier than the AWD restriction to be honest. Most of the RAV4’s can’t reach the hard shit that the SxS’s like to fuck with. That being said… can we just rid our trails of both 🤔
As Eddie mentioned, the track bar bracket will need to be replaced and I’d really consider a stronger weld on bracket. The flip will also give you more room if you ever want to run ram assist which, a stronger track bar bracket will also be in need.
Yeah I’m all for this. Last trip to Moab we had to help a young couple in a RAV4 who had gotten bound up on the first set of switch backs on poison spider and it was ugly. We were happy to help but were more than adamant they turn back and not continue on.
Aside from it being dangerous for the...
I dunno why I didn’t bother to check that. 🤦🏼♂️
I’ve been happy with my pro-grip brake kit also, I am running the newer 2017 booster and M/C and it works great.
Not sure what you’re driving but if it a JK then folks usually upgrade the booster. Either the J8 or, a booster from a 2017 has a slightly bigger bore and that helps a little. Some people leave it and they don’t mind.
If you’re in a JL/JT the stock brakes are plenty strong for the bigger brakes...
So rad. While it’s been quite a long time since I’ve been stuck, I’m sure it will happen again at some point so, here’s a throwback to a nasty situation back in 2017 that involved an overnight stay in the Utah west desert and, the unfortunate passing of a fellow off-roader that we couldn’t get...
Man I love the LT platforms but, I’m now kinda glad I’m building the older L96. Not that it can’t have its issues and I know fuck all when it comes to this stuff but, could it have been related to the block being aluminum? Pure curiosity here and to be fair, if I had the coin for an LT1 when I...
