Re: El Junky

thats truly amazing, and a bit reckless. i would have thought at least your steering box or knuckles would have definitely gone out. do you carry spare a steering box and tie rod?
 
Re: El Junky

he probably doesnt have to steer as much since he can just go straight over things much easier now....
probably wouldnt hurt to carry spare steering knuckles, and he carries a spare box.

I had to put the 30 breaking out there since i get it all the time on the trails. Im on my second set of 39" iroks and its still going ... multiple trips to the con and fordyce, up soup bowl & kitchen, through the box etc, all the winch hills and any other lines to try at fordyce and a trip to the hammers on them. I got tons of shit down there before running trails and tons of disbelief after it held together on the runs. Gusset the c's, truss it, sleeve the tubes and keep from getting bound up.

Re: El Junky

if the doors close i wouldnt sweat it . All I did was buy some extra weatherstripping from autozone and trippled up the weather stripping. we will see if it works.
 
Re: El Junky

It looks easy because you had her go around the hard part of the beginning of the canyon!
