Uberoo Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Thats gonna get borked on tree.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloyale Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Thats gonna get borked on tree.. You'd think but I've seen lots of them like that and they are fine. The wheel sticks out way further so you'll hit the tree with the wheel before the snorkel. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthCoast Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 There's are two tree I like to squeeze through at our local spot down the road and I haven't hit my snorkel yet. Tires actually drive up the base of the trees and the body drops down after so I think he's good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wagonryan Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 my snorkel is the least of my worries, its my first real wheeling tripso I think some body damage is on the menu while I become spatially aware.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick1208 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I'm not too concerned about hitting it on a tree. But I guess the 26th will be the judge of that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthCoast Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Jeff... what was the trail we came down the last time near the end? Need to do that one again... More fun than Ron's Run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbbvw Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Hey Nick and Marcus, are you guys still rolling open diffs? If so we need to get you welded up for walker. You at least want an Lsd. Walker is a big step up from Tahuya, there is no easy option on most of the trails. Just sayin Jesse 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one eye Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 Upper has become pretty gnarly............ I think that's on the list for the run!!!!!! Jeff 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one eye Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 you can run open but you'll end up beating your car pretty bad doing it. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vegablade Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Yeah Jeff is right. I had a hard time on one of the short connector trails with a broken diff stub. Weld up and it will make the trip that much more fun. Instead of stuff like this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcusgl10z28 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Damn... i didnt want to weld it... crap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyBrat Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Get a spare and weld it up, then you can just swap them out when you get to the trail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uberoo Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 That or weld it up and pull an axle for street driving.You can drive on the street with it welded and both axles in but it stresses parts a bit more than they should. Gloyale believes that driving on the street with a welded rear diff and both axles in results in a stub axle breaking on the trail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcusgl10z28 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Iv run a welded diff befor with axels in just wasnt my cup o tea... i didnt wanna buy a spare diff unlrss it was a good lsd so i could do that but its proving hard to find one... trying to put money in where counts.. rear sub needs reinforced front blocks need reinforced... no skid plate... the list just gets longer... im not sure ima make this one im not tryin to trash the car on purpose cuz i wasnt ready for somthin... but dont get me wrong i wanna go.

nick1208 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I'll start looking for a spare diff to weld up. Anyone got an extra I can buy? I'm more concerned about my tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthCoast Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 (edited) Your tires should be fine for Walker. Edited April 17, 2014 by NorthCoast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
