Thumbs up New Section

Greetings.
We had a suggestion for a new category here for an off road only section that pertains to the build up of rigs for off roading.
No wax, no cleaning, so stereo posts should go here.
That's what the other sections are for since we have a very diverse crowd here at YotaTech.

YotaTech is growing, and we are getting a very large amount of different users here.

Not all take their rigs off road who do have the 4x4 option on their rigs, and those who do a large amount of off roading could benefit from a new section where the talk is basically on the build up of a rig for the purpose of taking it off road.

If this section sees little usage, then the posts will be combined in the future back to the main SUV & Truck category.

Depending on how well this area takes off will a deciding factor if it stays up or not.

Neat idea! Unfortunately, I don't have 4wd, but maybe this new section will farther convince me to get one. Looking forward to seeing some threads about the trail rigs.

Have fun all.

BTW, I just had to say something so I could be first to post in this section.

Fantastic! I have just the topic in mind, I'll write and post it when I get home tonight. Thanks Corey, I believe this will be a very popular forum for those who wheel hard and for those who would like to understand more of the dynamics to pushing their rigs further.

OK fellow 4X'ers, Corey threw down the gauntlet, I guess it's up to us to keep it alive! Super!

Mike

Good idea. I hope to post my on-dirt experiences following my Lock Right 1620 install last Saturday. So far it has excellent on-road manners. I did end up sideways taking a corner this morning with too much GO-pedal though!

nice idea for a section. i'm sure we'll still see off road stuff in both areas, but at least people can come here for exclusive 4x4 content.

This is a great idea, and I already feel techified again because I actually have read most of the posts in this section. I really had to weed through the other sections to find useful info (for me).

Yeehhaaaww!
