Our wheeling trip was very fun to me. I actually like to see the wiches used and repairs on the trail, that means, either the vehicle or the driver learned or should have learned something from the trip. By the way, thanks for the winch up the hill.

I'd suggest looking into some kinda rocker protection real soon as well to keep the sides of that pretty truck of you'rs straight

BayouGold,
you did great man. very attentive, listened, just need to get out more to learn where your tires are and the limitations of your rig for now. and it is best to learn now while you are shorter to learn to manuver your rig. so when you get lifted higher and bigger tires you will be familiar with your capabilities and the limitations of you rig.

heavychevy,

just think how awesome your rig will be tubed out and you wont have to worry about rockers or quarter panels. lol
