Default First time off-roading.

Finally. First time really did some minor off-roading at Prentice Cooper park. Nothing major though sense it is dry. Got a little mud on her though. Couple of the areas did get a little step, with some areas of good rocks about.
Though I wouldn't be surprised if something that was RWD with a good locker could have gone the places that we went. Or even FWD with some clearance, lol.




The Nissan there started smelling pretty good after a while as it is a manual. Got some good clutch smells off her. At least it ain't mine.

There was one spot that was a decent incline with half of it being mud. The Nissan there, the back end slid around a little bit while my Jeep went through it like it wasn't even there. I even have ****ty almost bald A/S tires that are not as wide either.



Need to adjust my linkage again though. 4x4 started going in and out but if I held the 4x4 lever it would stay on. I hate that stupid linkage that they used. Must have had a high school class design it.

Got a few people going to prentice Cooper next Sunday. You should join us. I could show you some of the better trails there and then we might even make a trip right down the road to big fork if you are feeling like trying some more challenging stuff. Just let me know
