Ive been wheeling both (in my 74 bronco) for years, looking forward to getting the JT built up to handle more trails....Great pics!
For those who did RC and AOAA, how do they compare? I have never been to AOAA I had heard/read it was easier.
keep in mind Crawl Daddy is a badge of honor trail and gets loads of traffic. (a lot of traffic that really shouldnt be on a true red trail) Affliction and Crucible and other reds at RC I think are closer to what you saw at AOAA. Normal vehicles do not apply.From the last 4 days, I'd say AOAA is almost a full difficulty level higher for trails "on average". The last couple days were doing mostly blues and blacks, and the blues at AOAA are very similar to the Blacks at RC. There are a lot more bypasses at RC as Dlish said, but AOAA just seems more technical.
Also, I saw an AOAA red and compared that to Crawl Daddy.... No comparison. I'm pretty sure you can't drive a normal vehicle through that AOAA red.
Oh crap Sorry, that was probably one of those blue trails :/One final gift from a great trail weekend ... surprise death wobble at 60 mph on a quiet Tuesday. The lesson, always inspect the rig post wheeling (I didn't until after Mr. Wobble came to visit) and definitely consider a steering stabilizer relocation. I know I've got mine on the build sheet now.
Good eye. It looked solid up on the lift, and the alignment checked out, so I didn't swap it out. I will be keeping an eye on it. I did 1,000 miles in trips this week and the steering felt solid, so, knock wood, I'm hoping we can call this a lesson learned.It may just be the camera angle, but the tie rod looks bent too towards the end???
