    Shiiieettt I wish! I was just out there Sunday..very dusty! I gots to work tomorrow :(

    I don't have skids up front so my differentials are well exposed, especially with the diff drop..you'll be fine for most of the trails. If it gets sketchy just be careful on the line you chose and try to avoid going over big obstacles. Spotter if necessary! Oh and avoid going first so you can see the first rig and the line he chooses :p

    Have fun tomorrow guys, wish I can meet you Brian when you're in town. Maybe next time :eek:

    Woop, almost lost power. It's gettin' scary out here, lol. Glad I'm a nerd with a battery backup, hehe!!


    The further apart they are, the more you have the ability to adjust them about I think. However, they look a bit 'unconventional' - most lights are mounted in closer because otherwise a light hoop would be in the way. I'm not just saying that because that's how I did things, either - I'm saying your setup makes more sense from a pure projection standpoint.

    LightForce are crazy deep, yo. I don' think there's room.

    To be honest, I do not really care about cutting up the grille. I was thinking about how I could cut a hole on each side of it and just put the lights inside it. I'm not too keen on the "mesh" look. I'd have to reinforce the mounting some how though. I want them farther apart also so I can have a wider range of illumination. Looks a little goofy though eh? :)

    Ill make a list when i get home in a bit. Probably looking at 45-60 minutes from Milwaukie. We can meet on 26 if you want.





    What trails did you do?




    I know what you mean. I'll be taking really slow.


    Not doing them Sunday? Personally they look too spaced out.




    I'll post it when I get to my computer.

    Not sure as I just followed. I know Hogsback was one.. We didn't do much as the class was pretty long. Fun day though.

    Ohh and I forget which trail but we ended up moving a big rock that was making a trail too narrow. Mike remember when you me and Zach had to turn around during our October TSF trip? Haha the rock kissed one of the Warn Winch rep guys fender and left a nice size dent so they used their winch and moved it so it's fairly easy to get through.
