    I'm without sliders and skids and did okay, found the frame rails once and my flaps scraped quite a few times. My first time out there was with paper plates, surprised a few Jeepers and Razor guys. I mean, I did almost roll it but that was more an affect of a bad influence riding shotgun. He was moved to @Tynan's pathfinder at that point and @TX_Lucian road shotgun from that point.

    I can confirm that @TX_Lucian, @Tynan and myself will be on the "Don't want to brake my daily" list.

    I think you'll find most of us fit on that list. There's only a handful of guys here that have dedicated rock crawlers.

    Bring it to Firestone, it's somewhat cheap and the do a leak test also.

    You need to vaccuum the system before refilling and that is something barely anybody can do at home/
