First time out with my suzuki. It did great but had a few problems. It kept up with rigs with lockers and 33-35s. Made the orange trail no problem. Made it up a few things at the quarry. had about 4 in of water on the inside at the pond. all in all was preatty fun and now I need about 5 gallons of gear oil because the rear is whining now from the drive home.
I had a few breaks. The first one was the locker bolts backed out then snapped off. Got new 12.9 bolts and fixed that. Then at the end on saturday bent my control arm really bad and it cracked around the ball joint. So I am on the lookout for 2 good used control arms to reconfigure with skid plates and supports.
Its the sand woops that bent it.
I had to take the fenders off because the tires didnt fit.

I took my Tracker to Cliff's in Illinois on Saturday. I'd been there once before and got stuck real bad in the wet. This time was very dry since it hasn't rained for 3 weeks. Had no problems and had a great time. I've been to the Badlands twice before. Had a good time. The only problem is that it is so far from me. I hope to go to Zukimelt next year.

Hey SHack have you found any rear bumpers you like?
-
I am going to make my own rear bumper. I am going to cut off the rear cross member flush with the body mounts then put in some box tubing the same height as the frame.
