    You can keep them.

    That reminds me, this last Saturday Booger, Dbronzo and I got together at Booger's place to do Bronzo's front wheelbearings and tie rods. I finally remember to snap a pic of his original-design All Poo sliders and what they've done to his pinch weld:

    [​IMG]


    Every leg is like that. I remember the shits flexing so much on one trail at Mtn City TN that he couldn't open the door more than couple inches before the slider interfered.

    Some people say "the instructions say to notch the pinch weld". Sure. And if their design is gonna require that kind of bullshit, I'll just go to one of the 50 other fabs that can build shit right and not require that kind of silliness.

    Notice that mounting them lower also wasn't an option as they're flush with the bottom of the frame rail, and notice the complete lack of gussets:

    Yes, they've redesigned them since then. The fact that they ever considered this kind of crap acceptable is why they don't get my money.

    You will be fine....as long as you don't flop! The main trail of Potts is like Daniel and the obstacles are even worse! :eek: Just think about it this way....it is only like a 7 mile trail and Larry has been begging people to run it with him for about a year!

    What's the best plan for me grabbing a seat? Can I leave my truck at the top via a road?
