Bash plate took some good licks, bead locks have some rash and I bent a front a-arm guard. Other than that I’m good. For all of you that told me get the skid plate, THANK YOU! The trail armor did great, I don’t think my factory skid would have survived.

Right front axel broke and left tierod was slightly bent after two days in Tackett I straightened it and sleeved it so it can be a last resort spare. Other than some scratches to the plastic and rock rash on the beadlocks no more damage.

Tie rod, two rear SATV axles and a tweaked cage... but cleanup happens tomorrow so we’ll see if anything else shows up.

DR Plug, MR Hammer. Having steel wheels has learned me to not just bring plugs and a damned lot of them, but bring a hammer to pound back the 20 or so dents I rammed into the rims riding rocks. One dent was so bad it was 3" long and 1/2" wide. Every rotation of the tire was a very audible PPHHHHTT PPHHHTT PPHHHTT. MR Hammer and a small crowbar, beat it back into position and got her back on the trail. That was something I learned to bring last year riding on the back side of Mt Rainier, Washington....HAMMERTIME....I had thought that the wooden box I made for the bed would've gotten demolished but it took a few direct beatings and although a chunk was taken out, it survived reasonably well.

Bent one tie rod and beat on my roof a little.

Oh and that cheap side mirror I always brag on is no more. Leaned her against a tree at Tackett and it literally exploded in my face lol.

Blew a tire out, sidewall just catching it on a smaller tree stump moving out of the way for a few poo poo’s To get by! f***ers didn’t even say thanks just pointed at my tire. I have a left front axel klinking. My toy hauler rear tire tore a belt on that wash out ditch in front of my RV spot when I was arriving Wednesday.

I feel your pain on the pulling over part, we found ourselves pulling over for them quite a bit.

Oh, and they don’t believe in right of way either, we had to back up hill a couple times so the poor weak souls could get by.

After 5 side mirrors I gave up. Nothing hold up to a 2000 pound SxS and a tree

Had a standoff on a steep hill Friday night on way to top of world. There were 3 of them near the top and 12 of us almost to the top. I just shut it off and told the leader we had camping gear and food for a few days. He became more cooperative.

Great example:

I think it was the same group we came up on at dragons back, they were pretty inexperienced, asked us to go 1st so they could see. We all went through no problems, I asked if they wanted a spot and they decided to turn around.

His initial response was to whine about his reverse chain.

I busted my checking account and burned up my debit card...

Yep, saw you coming and pulled in there anyway, stupid!

Get one made of rubber. They absorb the shock better.
