If this doesn't belong in the hardcore trial thread be my guest to move! Its defiantly not a long trail but there are a few options of lines. Since you are in a washed out canyon, you cannot simply find a way out. Its either continue forward momentum or turn around!:Big Grin:

Since I didn't get the chance to make it out to P-Hill that afternoon my bud and I decided to due a night run on Lower Eldo. Fun was had and some body damage and carnage incurred. Yes, thats my 4 year old loving to wheel with daddy.

We didn't have much trouble but lower gears and bigger meats would have been an advantage:fight:. We were geared and locked F and R. I was the only one with carnage, screwing around on a loose hill climb on the way back home. Seams cheap blocks tend to shatter!!!:redface: Rotated the housing, spiting the d-line out and adding a questionable shock angle. Limping home driving sideways is an experience. Luckily we are in our back yard and the trailer was at the house.

Who says stock axles won't hold up to 35 or larger tires!! I haven't even broken a stock briff with 36s and the front welded:eek:

Pics...Are crappy but better than nothing!

:foshizzle: I know its due time. My bud was jumping up and down in joy when I broke. He breaks all the time and gets pissed. Kind of funny but even better since it was close to home. Cheap fix, all is well.:18:
