my buddy in his xj and myself made it through this but both got rocker panel damage and i also tore up my soft top. this group of landrovers came up and this guy decided to give it a try. he just built this thing and just had it repainted. we let him and his buddies start to guide it through but they had no idea what they were doing so we had to step in since the guy driving was freaking out about wrecking his disco. well we had him through it perfectly and he was gunning it up and out when he decided to turn his wheel. well he swung the rear into a nice big rock and tore out the quarter panel from behind his gas cap. he was pissed! he freaked out to. i felt sorry for the guy but it was also pretty funny at the same time. my gf was riding with me through it so no pics of me in it but i have the damage to prove it

ill get a pick of that in the morning when its light out

Thats what i thought. I went there last summer and had a good time but there was no one there. The 750 was still open then but i heard that it closed down.

AlTheKillerr · 02-23-2009, 11:14 PM

the 750? dont think ive heard about that trail. but about half the place got shut down and yet there are so many more trails now. they are awesome too. im hoping to head back out there almost every weekend

moprr71 · 02-24-2009, 07:56 AM

the 750 is a 750 acre part that was leased. It had a bunch of 4and 5 class trails

AlTheKillerr · 02-24-2009, 09:39 AM

oh ok

yeah it sucks they lost that land but there is still plenty of area to play.

AlTheKillerr · 02-26-2009, 12:24 AM

so i may be going full width soon with a 44 up front and an 8.8 out back. they will be built to handle 35s or 36s

ill also be removing my rear flares front flares and cutting the front fender to contour the shape of the hood

should be interesting

AlTheKillerr · 02-27-2009, 06:51 PM

i decided to skip on going full width right now. the trails that i run are to narrow to do that so maybe in the future i will

but i finally uploaded pics of the rock rash i got from the last outing

jeepbro's · 02-27-2009, 08:06 PM

holy crap thats some bad rock rash! I bet you wish you had those rock rails earlier! and btw you can go 8.8 and 44 and not full width and still be able to handle 37's.

AlTheKillerr · 02-27-2009, 09:34 PM

yeah i know but i dont have the money right now. the 8.8 i was looking at is 75 and the 44 100 which is a hell of a deal but ill just have to put it off for a little while

jeepbro's · 02-27-2009, 11:00 PM

thats too bad, eh stuff happens. Kinda different question but how did your AT's handle all those rocks? any damage to them? i heard you can tear off one of those little side lugs but not sure i believe it. I've really only had mine on the rocks with the AT's once but was Not disappointed for sure. And what psi did you run?
