If you look close in the vids where I am warming the tires you can seem the front start to hop. I let out then start again and it smooths out. But I do not get bad wrap or hop from the radius arms. My front set-up is basically indetical to yours.

Yeah I noticed the hop at first, but once you backed out and started layin into it again it seemed pretty solid. Lookin at the vids of my truck, I get a little hop too, but not as bad as I had thought it was.

I guess the reason I brought it up is I start hopping real bad when climbing the soft pea gravel hills out there. Maybe its more an issue with my rear (not having an anti-wrap) than my front.

Its 250 miles from my place to Attica, Haspin is WAY to far, I blew my $$ last weekend gonna need another month before I can recoup and travel again lol. My next stop will most likely be Bundy Hill ORV park in Michigan.

Though I'm closer, I'm in the same situation. Thanks for the offer, but it'll be at LEAST a few weeks before I get out again. Have fun and take pics hoosier!

I just about have all the vids of Bray D loaded to my youtube channel (all the videos combined to one video).

Absolutely awesome! Thanks for putting that together John. Again, I can't say enough about you and your crew.

For the record, I made the climbs at 2:20 and 4:30 . Never made the one at 3:40, but CheapThrillB2 showed me how it's done

Sweet, thanks. That thing is sick. I'm planning on doing an exo on mine as well after I do the sas. Probably won't be until next year, as I'm gathering parts to do it in the fall of this year.

Last time we were out there, I noticed that you have some wicked rear axle wrap.

 

[CheapThrillB2]

Yeah I was telling him that to on Sunday. I think you can even hear my comment on it in one of the videos.

 

[Bray D]

It was worse when I had my stock springs. I definitely need to build an anti wrap bar. I'd like to get my ride height and everything set in stone before I build one though. If I wait for that I'll probably never build one haha

When You guys go wheeling, do you trailer your trucks or do you just bring spare parts and credit cards and hope for the best?

 

[CheapThrillB2]

Bray drove his, mine isn't street legal so it gets trailered. the park is 250 miles one way from my house.

You don't hope for the best, you build and wheel appropriately. My drivetrain is overbuilt for my powerplant and tire size, and I always keep in mind that I've gotta drive it home. The park is 160 miles away from me.

And I bring my credit card just in case

And usually, there is someone else along with you who has a trailer. You know that if necessary, you can always hop a ride and one of the other rigs can get driven. It hasen't been an issue because you over-built it, but you just never know.

 

[Bray D]

True, but I'm not gonna wheel and plan on relying on someone else. I never had the 'buddy with a trailer' luxury until late last year. My wheeling style has evolved into what it is today based on the fact that it was(is) my only way home.
