Just a 2" OME and 265/75/16. So its pretty much stock aside from sliders and diff protection. I did get hung up a lot on this trail, but I think a lot of it could have been avoided if I picked a different line in a few places.

Nice pics and videos. I have a couple I can upload. Not too many though.



Geez, James. Sounds like Tonka's set up. RTE 2" lift, OME shocks, SafariGard rock sliders, and RTE diff protection. You shouldn't have been getting so hung up. One trick I learned early on, to help me pick lines. I looked underneath, and found where my diff pumpkins were; then I made a mark on the hood. When I was picking my lines, I would line up that mark to be clear of the high points, and it kept me from smacking the diffs and getting waylaid. Now I just explode the insides of the diffs instead.
