    Didnt have to...WANTED TOO! Ha! Easier to get out! Only $15 a bolt from the stealership! Waaaaaaaaaaay easier then trying to bend the well and pull her out! Awwwww yea!:D

    Oh hell....there really arent any "Usual" spots. We are picking new runs all the time. From Northern End of GC all the way to the AZBDR down by the border. For the most part we stick to the central part of the state. Florence to Payson over to Flag and Sedona area. Some quick runs to Bulldog Canyon are fun. Love the Florence -Kelvin area! I am a Desert Rat for sure!

    My Gaia app looks like a kid with crack and some markers drew all over that bastard! We track all our runs and always stop for that pic!!!! Bahaha

    So if you cut the bolt you don’t have to bend the metal there?

    I’m about to do a very similar setup and wondering if I should be grinding off the bolts or not.

    No sir, a couple scratches but I do not believe we had to actually bend it to get it back in.

    We grinded off just the passenger side bolt. Flipped it around on re-install. Easy peasy! Definitely saves time and takes most of the P.I.T.Assness out if it!

    If it gets that bad, pull the grill out and give it a try. It'll give you more visibility to the head of the bolt. Had to that on our Gen 3 once. Once you get it out, you can always flip it to make maintenance easier.
