    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    Directly dependent on how many folks from southern states who post.

    :eek: Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck that....glad we didn't run into any of those the day before when we were there lol. I was walking through the shrubs on that one hill that we filmed underneath our trucks, too. Yikes....

    Getting my LBJ's replaced tomorrow, after Rowher on Sunday it was getting to the point where even Toyota couldn't tell me it was normal. Covered under my aftermarket 60k warranty, actually turned out to be good for something lol.

    I'm always looking out for snakes on the trail. Saw a couple sticks on the way up and was joking with my cousin that they were snakes, then we pulled up next to this guy at the top of hill. My driver tire is 4" from his head. It's about 3 foot long. I stopped there for a minute to take the pic. It got pissed when I started moving again.

    Good news on the LBJ's

    You were right on actually when we looked at them at Greg's on Sunday, they were starting to leak pretty bad and that's the first thing the tech pointed out today. I definitely rolled the dice with them on Sunday at Rowher, glad I didn't lose lol.

    As much as I don't like snakes, I'd still rather walk up on one of them than a poisonous spider any day. I fucking hate spiders

    Nice! Looks like a fun trail, I'll check out the report. How would you rate it for an IFS rig?

    Definitely do-able but atleast on 33s and a locker. There's only one really tuff spot and everything else pretty much has by passes or not so tuff spots

    They were pretty goopy, glad you got that fixed before something happened. How long until you get those UCA? If I remember, I think there was a tear in the driver side ball joint boot

    Looks like a great trail. Private Lake for fishing?!I'm down for that. Does this area get pretty much shut down by snow in the winter?

    Yeah the UCA boots are torn and need to be replaced as well, the passenger side is the worst but they're both torn and letting dirt in. Unfortunately I have to wait until the GB ends but they should be here in a couple weeks.
