    Took a trip out to Uwharrie Saturday. We went thru Dutch John and Dicky Bell. I was really nervous about breaking something as those trails are rough! The ol' girl did great! The only slight damage I had was a slightly dented exhaust tip dropping off of a rock and a scraped up rock slider as it did it's job and slid off of a rock. Shout out to SOS for making a great product! I took my time because I'm not gonna lie, I was very nervous! :D
    These trucks are much more capable than I realized. Pretty much ran in 4LO & ATRAC most of the time. Went with a Jeep club (I'm the only non jeep) because I'm good friends with the guy that started it.
    Anyways, here's a few pics and video.

    Oh you went down and up Dickey Bell? That's awesome!!! Glad you did well those trail even though they look nervous are not as bad as people tend to hype them up to be. You did well on a pretty much non armored up vehicle too none the less. People need to see that.

    I only went down Dickey Bell on the right side. There's no way I was going to the left! Also I just really took my time. BTW, the last link is a video.
