"Wheeler's Anonymous"

That's my girl

 

Does your fiance know that?

 

Hehe...

 

Come talk to me about WM being too easy after you run suicide hill and frustration hill. That may change your mind

 

I did White mountain once.

Concured suicide hill.
Fell I'll and didn't attempt frustration hill if it's the one I'm thinking about.

 

The very end of the trail there’s a fork, left for hard, right for harder(frustration hill). Shit looks crazy from the bottom

 

Sounds like the one I'm thinking about.

 

Yeah I've attempted that one but didn't get further than halfway. That's right at the end of WM if you take it all the way and don't exit at the first fire road crossing.

@oni06 for reference, this hill was the one I attempted when you were laying on the ground next to your truck from food sickness lol. I wouldn't blame you if you don't remember that hill, we all left via the easier section to the left. Good times.

 

I remember I almost got to use my bumper when you got high centered on that bolder.

 

Yeah that was the spot....maybe you were laying down after that.

 

Finally installed my Budbilt belly skid...much better coverage than the lone t-case skid I had on before. Gonna be a pain in the ass to do my fluids next time.

 

Pretty sure that piece is designed to fail like that

 

No doubt...Alex, Steve and now Chris can attest to that, lol. Judging by the shattered plastic all over that area I think many others can, too.

 

For the first two it was also #nolockerproblems at the time. Too much spinning and once you do that in that particular spot, the rocks are in such a way that you slide in right next to the wall with a giant boulder right behind you and then you're fucked; either gotta get pulled up and over or back into the boulder and push yourself away.

Small wheelbase FTW

 

someday....lol. Sounds expensive (with regear and all) but no doubt it's the best bang for your buck as far as practical mods go, but I just can't justify it anytime this year with the wedding and all... unless I come across a bag of money of somewhere.

 

It's a slippery slope...

 

Oh for sure, I see what you guys go through haha. Knock on wood, I still daily my truck and haven't ever needed to bum a ride to work on Monday, yet. I'm not doing anything as big as the front locker until I have another daily, which of course just adds to the overall cost of the matter making it less practical anytime soon.

I may or may not be doing John Bull though with another group in a couple weeks No doubt I'll need a few tugs but from what I've heard/seen, as long as I focus on the easier lines I should* be okay. I put the belly skid on last week partly in preparation for that.

*maybe

 

yeah I remember him saying that awhile back, as far as I know only one guy going is double locked but the rest are on 33's+ so that'll be my only unique disadvantage.

 

2nd to last weekend of July, for sure I'll check with 'em

 

Hehe...
