    Sorry Bob I wanted to go but damn home responsibilities keep coming up. I really want to get out soon. Would like to run Bill Moore and Miller Creek. And of course the annual run on Red Cone but maybe run over into Breckenridge instead of down to Keystone.

    What brand of ifs skid are you using? I'm looking to go ATO Front to back, other than the BAMF diff and LCA skids I already have.

    And as far as the old chinaman's gulch pics I think John Belushi said it best in animal house... "HOLY SHIT!" That trail isn't even on trail damage, I was looking at liberty and independence trails on there. That shit is extreme.

    ATO makes good skids. Allpro skids aren't the greatest which is what bob has.

    all-pro IFS, ATO tranny and tcase, BAMF LCA and diff

    ATO are 1/4" and allpro is 3/16 and you can definitely tell the difference...

    my ifs is dented now pretty good around the oil drain opening...

    going to have to start saving up some more pennies and get some thicker steel up there soon


    the trail definitely gave me a run for my money that i wasn't expecting...seems like obstacles change there every year, as the case is with a lot of trails around here...tough going into a new trail with a new spotter, takes some time to get used to the other person's truck and their dimensions & capabilities..
