Rode almost 60 miles yesterday in Tennessee with my 23 year old son on some of the most rutted out gnarly trails I have ever been on. Think we got enough seat time to make an informed evaluation of my buggy mods. I recently added Walker Evans shocks and 26” Maxxis Bighorn radials. Also removed my swaybar around the same time. The combination of these three things have completely transformed my little buggy. The WE shocks improved the ride in a huge way. Did not bottom out once yesterday and we were doing some pretty crazy stuff. The ride is way plush and smoother than a buggy with this small amount of wheel travel has any right to be. And the tires were very impressive also. They do add a small amount of ground clearance and they gripped and grabbed hard enough to get us out of some pretty hairy situations yesterday. We went through some mud holes and badly rutted trails that undoubtedly would have gotten my buggy hung up in times past. Am very happy with the way my little buggy performed yesterday. Only had one little “oh s*** !” moment all day and that was not the buggies fault. We were going up a steep, deeply rutted out, greasy hill. My son straddled the rut on one side of the trail the same way we had done several times earlier in the day. On the way up a rear tire slid down in the rut and we had a low speed tip over to the right side. Was almost comical the way buggy laid over on it’s side in slow motion. No one was hurt. The only damage to the buggy was a cracked glass in the right side mirror and a couple of very small scuffs/scratches to the rear fender. Was a good day and will make for some great memories.
