    As long as they don’t break they can’t be any different than the expensive max trax... prolly was just situational

    Either of you guys have experience with that hi-lift extended base platform?
    Is that really nice to have/make a big difference?
    Thinking about getting one but have never talked to anyone and heard +/- experiences with em..

    yes the base makes a much needed improvement in the stability of the hi lift (my opinion)..have used it now several times and see a difference.

    Used the Max Traxx this winter, works ok in snow, key is not to spin the tires while on the traxx....haven't used them in mud yet.

    What he said
    fits awesome. Only thing I had to do was find longer screws for the emblem as the one Cali gave me were too short. Other than that,

    There seems to be a lot of opinions about Simple Green, and some excellent info at various sites about its use and possible issues....this one is their web site, but does contain a lot of info.....

    https://simplegreen.com/faqs/

    I dont use it but that's just meIMG_0013.jpg .... I do like this, NOT a harsh cleaner by any means, as in not for a HD greasy clean, but if used routinely it works well.....

    I ran into the same thing for my Rotopax. The damn locking mount cost just as much as the Rotopax container. :D
