Hey Mitchell, thanks for the escort back to the main road! Nice meeting you man!!

I just packed up and in about 5 minutes im sneaking off with the wifey to go do a quick overnight camping in diamond fork. Just a spur of the moment thing so I thought I'd make sure at least someone knew where I was...staying to the left at all the forks... small little spot right on the left side of hog's back, before it opens up to the meadow where molly's nipple is. (mtn, not a person !)If you see my pretty face on the news in a few days, just forward that last sentence to my uncle and he should come pulling up.. lol See ya guys on the next run!

My suggestion, if I may. Take it out and wheel it as it is and then build up to what you want to do. You don't want to go throwing a bunch of expensive parts at it in attempt to build a monster until you test out what your starting with. Just my humble opinion.

Agreed, armor first is a good rule, after lifting mine and getting some bigger tires my next purchase was sliders, and boy have I been happy they are there. It turns an oh crap moment into a hell yeah moment on the trail!
