    Well, I'm not reading anything about the lovely smell of a burning clutch, so you must have fared well rowing out there. Nicely done.

    What's your conclusion of MT vs AT on the trail, now that you've done both?

    I also think it's a big mix of how one wheels.

    Because plenty of people wheel these trails without damage lol

    Stalled few times, but like you said, handbreak is my best friend! Haven't burned the clutch at all! It's way more challnaging and interesting compare to just turning "Mall Control" on TuRD auto.

    Aside from going way too fast and puncturing tire (nobody goes that fast there anyways), the AT P-tires did awesome and I am keeping them, aluminum skids got bent a bit, but nothing that hammer can't fix.

    I am satisfied with the build I did overall.


    Well, some people WHEEL and some cry about every dent ;)
    Plenty of people crash and break shit there, we had Jeeps that had a break fluid leak resulting in no breaks and blown driveshaft yesterday.

    You forgot to add for the black loop. Its very tight and you will get some good scratches on your paint due to trees.

    Oh ya!

    Overall if you aren't ready to take body damage - don't do it, first part is super muddy and tight, some sections even Jeeps with 37s had problems with.

    Need to wait a bit more for the mud to dry, maybe then it'll be easier. It's more muddy than last year.

    There are spots to turn around in the area big enough for large groups, so it's not an issue :)

    But did you really do it if you haven't went through the mud?! Give me 100% /s

    Yeah, if i did it again this year I would just start from the end off the south trail. Then go to the first mud pit and turn around.

    Damage report, couple scratches, couple dings on the skid plate. Only real damage is some how I smashed the corner of the rear bumper in. I think when i was stuck in mud. Barely noticeable but when you look underneath its bent in the plastic mold and metal brace

    Im not sure what you mean exactly. Im only familiar with north and south. We entered black loop via the way you go to north trail. And came out on south trail by the first bridge.

    Anyone know how much it would cost to rebuild some icon coilovers? I'm just trying to get a rough price.

    If you rebuild them yourself. Couple hundreed in parts and oil maybe hoses. If you have to ship them out. A lot. I know @Joe23 had to do this with his foxes for warrantee.

    My mechanic rebuilds fox racing shocks for sleds. One of the only guys in Ontario that can do it from what I am told.

    He said he can do any shock. This was the only thing that even had me look at Fox stuff while buying my lift. It was just way to expensive for me at the time.

    I called CT and they rebuild. I'm waiting on a call back from them to get a qoute. I'll look into rebuilding myself. I might be grabbing a pair for $150.

    Oh for that price you should be below the cost of them. Worst case I can always meet up and help ya get them to ski.
