    That's not always the case, as long as you are on a marked Forest Service Road or County road you should be covered. It would be under your comprehensive coverage and your deductible will still apply. I was off roading when I had my little accident and my insurance covered it, even after I told them I was on a dirt road.

    Yes, but as long as you are on a marked road you are covered. Stick to the trails and roads and there will be no problem...

    For sliders, check out Brandon from Avid Off road. He has a great product and does awesome work for a very reasonable price.

    I am aware they investigate , I said dont volunteer the information not to lie about it there is a difference. If you are asked directly obviously you would own up to it but you dont tell them exactly what happened unless asked...

    I guess I should have specified Off-Roading if you are on marked trails it generally gets paid , I am talking about true off-roading not trail running there is a difference.

    Ya it's illegal and tears up the country side, stay on the trails dude.:cool:

    There's enough people trying to ban us from even going out there, they don't need any ammo.

    just because its not a marked road doesnt mean it isnt a legal trail

    a lot of ORV parks have trails that are not considered forest service roads or whatnot...

    True true, but they have their own set trails. What he is suggesting is not staying on a trial but making his own. If that's not what he meant then I apologize for jumping to a conclusion, but the way it was written leads me to believe otherwise.

    I wasn't insinuating that is what I do at all. I am simply saying for insurance purposes one gets paid the other doesn't plain and simple. Nothing more nothing less.

    Sliders are 50% the cost of the insurance deductible and cheaper than a set of steps or running boards. Win Win!!!

    you use these? That wold be great if they were a decent set. I don't need the top of the line set as I'm not out every weekend, As long as they do the job a few times a year. That price is great.

    check them out! they are a weld on set. they dont come painted, but who needs paint down there anyway.imo you should get the l-braket kit. it makes life a whole lot easier when it comes to mounting time.
    the gusset kit doesn't hurt either!
