When you run trails with open diffs, please unstack all of the rocks that you have to use, on any trail that you run. In fact, unstack more than what you use to account for the others who didn't unstack their rocks.

Sicking the "lead foots" in the back of the line reduces the chore considerably, IMHO...

I'm getting older, and it's hard work unstacking nearly every trail that I run.

33's will fix that right up.

I ran Doran (bypassing the entrance) with my 3", 31's, and open/open. I got good use out of my rails...real good use

That ledge that has no bypass isn't that big a deal, just don't slide off the rocks and knock your bead off.

Actually, that ledge is usually well stacked. When we unstack it before anyone goes through it's locker only. It doesn't take a lot of rocks to make it doable, but many times it looks like a damn road when we get there.

So in essence you want us to unstack the rocks that you've placed?
All joking aside, that is a good point. If any rocks are moved onto the trail they should be removed after the passage through the area that they were placed on and preferably into the spot that they were moved from.

I like throwing them completely off the trail, where they're harder to get to the next time.

You should be fine, but i would definately get some rocker rails cuzz you'll prob use them. espically if you want to take the harder lines... I used mine a few times on odessa. 3" lift on 32's full armor open diffs

i lucked out last time. with no damage going up the lower section. however i did roll a bead and it was a complicated fix, not the sort of thing to attempt alone. but i definately used my rock rails the whole lower section. and when you see those pics of mike r and rabbit, realize that those guys are good drivers, i trust my rig with their spotting and their lines (unless they make it clear they are trying the crazy ones) and they still got tangled up by lower doran. i ,also, would say get a good set of rock rails.

 

[saki669]

Hmmmm.. I can see the poll.

Yeah, the entrance too. The whole enchilada.

Dude. Calico is insane.
We didn't even attempt the entrance to Doran. We'll have to give it another shot when the wives are not around. :rattle:
Video to follow.

We spent some time unstacking Odessa. I'm not even sure why some of the sections were stacked in the first place... :wierd:

The whole enchilada.

Would you like that for here, or to go?

I'll have that to go, with a side of rice & beans please.

Yeah, I would not be trying that, even with the flex!
