Wow, looks great back there, man! ...............Ok, now you know what I meant hahahahaha.
Seriously, great kit! I know, the kit never ends/stops being updated/upgraded.... but you're doing nicely there, man!
Have a safe time.... get lots of pics!
Hopefully we can all hit the Sierras one time, and especially The Alabama Hills and Owens Dry Lake/the Dunes and DEFINITELY Keough Hot Springs Maybe even Mammoth Hot Creek! WOOT, I can't WAIT to be able to get out there again, ya know? ......grrrr, dang 'life'! LOL.

so i made it to the top without any help but the last climb. guess not being regeared and automatic trans didnt help. guess the trans was getting hot since i did do alot of a steep climbs at low speeds cuz i could lol. anyways the last climb wasnt any steeper than any of the previous ones but we where pretty high up so lack of power maybe? poorly geared made it to hard and the engine was just spinning the torque converter instead of the wheels. i had to winch up to one tree than other one. where i finally made the last 600 feet or so on its own weak power haha.
so i need to regear ASAP. also learned i like to leap before i look. so i need a belly skid plate and i also like to think i have good clearance and bashed my lower crossbar for the lower arms and diff into a HUGE rock lol. so i need a front skid as well
didnt get to many pictures of me since i was leading and was helping out alot. gf didnt wanna get out too much since it was COLD haha
winch was used many times and worked great. i need to learn how to rewind the cable so its tight every time
start of the trail
Interior Cargo Rack worked perfectly
friend climbing a slick area
top view
follow the leader ME
i made it over this but i didnt look on the other side and just went for it. i banged up the underside a bit lol buddy didnt do so well, high center and noticed the bald tires on bald mountain haha he did really well btw
where to big hump was located. we ended up finding a way around but i had to winch up the last two
further up the trail
Finally made it to the top. had a nice BBQ
otw back down and it was getting DARK quick lol was dark before we made it back to the road haha only one had a SA but we were all fairly low and under built
