    They will be fine with a locker I can go first and pull whoever cant make it. And its really not a bottle neck its wide enough there is just big rocks right in the middle of the trail.

    No but you will have a few marks on your stock ones after the trail is over.

    Hmm I'll have to see how my cash flow is doing at that time. It's a good amount further drive for me to Hell Hole but it would be fun. I don't care about my bumpers so no worries there.

    Sure it will I brought mine in there with stock skids but this is not a mild trail so body damage can happen if your not carfull.

    I think I'll pass on this run for now, but looks pretty sweet. Maybe next year after I have more skid coverage and rear bumper :)
