I definately want to do this run again when it warms up, it was a blast! It was a great opportunity to run with a bunch of rigs of all kinds of build levels. It gave me a lot of insight towards where I need to go next, I was rubbing pretty bad, I did'nt tear anything up but it definately pointed out some things to improve on. I'd like to thank everyone for all the pics, I feel we got a lot of good ones of most all the rigs! I can't wait to go again. Edit: Almost forgot, the guys from Utah 4X4, a good bunch, and patient with those of us less experienced!

i guess i should of been more clear my bad. what i was saying is the slider it's self will not bend. when you come down on a rock hard it will flex up a little and hit and denting the rocker. if anyone has read this 
then it will tell you what i am talking about the same thing that happen to eric's jeep happen to me. what he did is make a brace that went to the control arm mount and if i remember right he added a third leg to the frame. but anyway if you do not have this book i would recommend it to anyone.

Glad you could make it out, my son and I really liked your and your buddies (I'm not even going to try to spell his name) rigs, nice builds on both of them, sweet rigs. We most definately need to put another run out there together.

Ya we need to do another run up there, cause I'd like to give constrictor a shot! Plus I'd like to show you guys that trail I found thats closer to the 5 mile play ground. Its a little more in our rigs capability range. With a bunch of big steps that are technical, but still doable without lockers!

I got no plans for Easter and I'd love to do a butterfield canyon run. Sounds like we're going to be busy this summer, hell yeah!

Nice find! but he's missing the few things I'd want; doors (for chopping), fenders... although I would like the factory roof rack, tow bar, windshield! Thanks for keeping me in mind though!!!
