ya i wouldn't til your built more

i wouldn't recommend anyone run it without at very minimum 35's, lockers F&R ,plenty of body protection unless you don't mind body damage, plenty of trail spares, winch and some pretty good driving skills.

as cory said this trail can chew you up and spit you out, my pics only got to the point where the major obstacles begin, so i have no pics of any of the actual "hard" stuff LOL

thats when it gets fun!

question... lol, So i am extremly happy with my rear spartan locker. It works great. I am going to lock the front here pretty soon and run hydrolic assist and go with 35's. everything is desided except my front locker choice. I was thinking either a grizzly/detroit up front. but have been thinking of running a spartan in the front as well as it would make for spare parts for a drive home if I blew the rear one out ect... anyone run a "pop" locker in the front? what are the thoughts? ive only read good but who knows how they drive to the mall lol, I have heard the ratcheting in a binding position they can add to stress and help snap shafts when its loaded and it "pops" just thinking the $300 would be good going to other things but don't want look back either.

I miss moab lol

i know quite a few that run lockrights in the front and have no problems, the driving in the winter in 4wheel drive is the only major difference you notice. that i've been told. the only rig i ran a lockrite in the front was my scrambler, and it had manual hubs so i didn't notice much lol
