    I had no idea they were in Maryland that's awesome. I have the RCI aluminum IFS now I'm thinking I should have went steel, and from what I read in order to install Mobtowns Transmission/transfer skids you need the Mobtown IFS as well

    Get on the wait list. We just ran a group buy and a full set of steel was like $465ish dollars.

    go to pretty much any national forest, they all have gravel roads going around them you can explore and play with the 4x4 switch. Alot of the times youll find little trails going off the gravel road you can find a little bit more technical stuff.

    You're right Horder23 just because it off road doesn't mean it's legal to drive on. Great feedback from everyone. It seems like if you're going to go off roading at the very least you need some sliders and KO2s. With some of the problems I've been hearing with the 2016's, I guess I have to be careful if I decide to go off road.

    My Dakars are already squeaky as hell, and i've never read of the other two issues. Seems weird that driving off-road would cause those two in particular? But who knows.

    Lots of lite offroading in South Philly. Down near the Navy Yard and up towards DelCo.








    In theory these are public streets, but there are some long stretches of Green trails at RC that are smoother and better maintained.
