Well, that's what I get for trying trails that recommend a min of 33"s and lift with 31"s and no lift with no spotter... It did fine though, I didn't break anything and the skids straightened right out. I will hopefully get some 33"s and at least BJ spacers before I go there again as I did spend wayy too much time on the skids. Actually though, a good spotter would have kept me off the skids a lot (the guys that "spotted" me basically just told me what I hit, landed on, etc. but wouldn't help me avoid stuff). My buddy that was spotting me the first part of the day broke a shock mount and had to go home. Yeah, I wheel hard but have not broken anything yet and use my armor for what it is meant for.

These skids are tough, but they're not indestructible. The crossmember is almost indestructible. I've used the 8 lb maul a couple of times on my skid to straighten it back out after doing some rock surfing on by BB skids
