"Wheeler's Anonymous"

I'm heading up from San Diego to the truck meet out in Johnson Valley.. in about 6 hours.

 

How's done Rower/Drinkwater after the latest big rains?

Thinking on taking my son on his first off road trip tomorrow. Was going to start in Rower Flats and how well he handles it end in Drinkwater.

My last trip before the rain, there is a obstacle about half a mile down Rower trail on the north side that was getting to be a steep drop off. Is Rower trail still passable?

Thanks

 

@Sandtaco could fill you in and how it is up there. Hopefully he pops up and can chime in.

 

Chris and I went a few weeks back. It's not too bad at all.

 

Idk what drop he's talking about though unless it's the one on the turn? I dunno. It looks worse than it is. I don't think I even 3 wheeled it last time

 

That's the spot. There an inside line between the trees and an outside line. Wasn't bad going down at the time but going up the inside and outside looked to be pretty tough to get up.

Thanks for the update.

 

Going down isn't an issue and I have a double cab long bed. We didn't go up that side though, but I'm sure it's not that bad.

 

Did a little wheeling today...

 

Wish i could have gotten some wheeling in, but finally got it installed and so far really happy with it!

Shouldn't have any issues at Rowher or drinkwater if you have offroad tires. Take the left line at the spot you mentioned and hug the left side. It's much easier than it looks.

 

@SlipperyTaco @Mike likes Tacos what's the taco Tuesday place called? I should be able to come up this week.

 

Or if you take the right side, be careful bumping it up or you might blow out your rear diff like someone we know and love @MADSTEEZE

Seriously though, that looked painful and I dont know if I'll ever attempt that side again after seeing what it did to him lol.

 

It's cuz you don't IG I'll show you Thursday

 

Skids would probably have helped. He still only has the stock front one

 

I'll show you the video he landed on it hard

Going to Big Bear on Thursday, anyone's welcome to come. Doubt we'll really do any trails too difficult

I didn't think he landed on it, he blew up the inside gears because he got sudden traction after spinning the tires freely bouncing up and down, at least that's how I heard him explain it

 

@itaro

Ah. I just made assumptions from videos. Either way fuck that
