looking at all these pics(not just yours) no affense but it sure makes me glad i live in california and I don't say i'm wheeling when i'm driving over random rocks instead of driving a nice 10 mile trail through the mountains where there is an actuall destination
You are use to rocks, but muddy rocks are a whole different story. It requires wheel spin, aggressive tires, high RPM'S, AND SHOWING NO REMORSE FOR BREAKAGE.
I will get some good pics up later.

dunno...just mentioning it was over a year ago.  I feel the same way about mud, but it can make for good pics.

I didn't see that they were that old but it doesn't matter.  maybe he's matured a bit since then and I'm digging up old :pokinit:.  I am from CA btw....  :yesnod:

Ramrod

those actual trail like tellico look really sick and id love to hit those but those ones of the big rocks just on the hillside just doesnt look like fun to me.  I like to have a final goal/destination when im wheeling, not just "oh im 5' ahead of where I just was and my trucks broken"

MR_DIY

guess not.  East coast wheeling takes a bit more wheel speed and usually a tight turning radius.

why would you bash someones' terrain though?  I don't get it.

Rear spring setup works great. They have locks on them for highway driving. You really have to have the right setup to keep the axle wrap to a minimum, when using 3/4 elliptical.
More pics.
