HOWDY ALL...

[cruiserpilot]

Over 10 yrs ago I met a bunch riding from Lake Cowichan to Dumont. They had ATV's like mine, and the reason I
bought my ATV. There is a way, if I was home I'd pinpoint the approx. route. But loggers got in about 3 yrs later
and wiped out that particular trail. Chainsaws and winches, lots and lots of gas.

Better get those running boards mounted up! Looks like a lot of fun.

Slid into some rock and roots, they were getting ding a bunch and pushing my sheet metal in...Either going to make a set of sliders slash running boards with Jay or borrow his bender for a few days.

You should........ mostly easy fun runs, all this rain makes the easy trails a little more difficult..

We dumped our diffs all milky white, not to do our tcases...lots of water out there right now. Jims got a problem, rear diff making one heck of a clank on initial acceleration..

You guys be on a wheelin binge!

Here is a neat idea I saw. The front mounts to the forward running board bracket. The rear cross bar runs under the frame to the other
side, and incorporates a skid plate. It mounts to the frame as well. Kind of like one giant piece.



Jim running 4:11's?

Hi Cruiserpilot, Rob seems to think I have 307`s? keep your eyes open for any spare 3rd or complete diff pumpkin for me I might have done damage...thanks!

Just a guess at this point, need to drop the fluid and pull the rear cover...factory gears are 3:70, thats why you struggle on small climbs while I zip up...

Jim running 4:11's?

Neat idea..

 

[cruiserpilot]

I am not sure I have spare 3.70's. I would recommend a 4:11 upgrade, certainly for the amount of trail time you are running.

 

[JimJ]

OK thanks for the info
