SO....... when is the next WA run ?

arisythila

No clue. After all the body damage, Not sure when were doing the next one. I found some weaknesses to the truck, and I will be coming back strong. Probably going to hit up 2 inch spacers on my wheels. and grab some rock sliders. Grab a ARB locker for the rear.

So we have atlease a month! :-) jk jk.

James I'll PM you the link for the guage pillar. I just remembered where I got them from. They've gone up in price since I bought mine but still not NEAR the price you mentioned.

Wow you guys are brave tackling Evans in those conditions! I won't take my rig there until I'm exo-d. I've run passanger there last Fall and within 15 minutes we had a truck flop LoL

No thanks! I like my straight cab! The crazy vertical switchback trail with all it's off camber fun had me on edge.

EFI helps to

Thanks for the good words everyone!! and thanks for the link. im stoked on the price of the pillar mount!!!!!

i plan on making another trip down to evans creek, towards the end of July. i plan on staying the entire weekend this time though. so i can run all the trails and see what else evens has to offer. i had alot of fun at the end of trail 520. at the sand/rock pit/crack/hill... anyways i will post up when i have a better idea on my time frame for the next trip

arisythila

Im sorry to tell you this, But I dont think a Exo is going to help you much. Most of the damage was done by thin tree roots that stuck out too much. I think whoever designed it, designed it to do body damage. Even tho i turned wide enough to NOT hit the tree root. What happened is someone put a rock in a place I didn't see, and it caused the car to jump towards that big root.

People say Evans is one of the hardest places. I think Evans is the hardest place to not sustain damage.

I spoke with my brother. He said upper 520 is suppose to be one of the hardest paths. We would have been better off taking 197 down, than 520 upper.

Idk I thought we did pretty well on 520!!

arisythila

yeah. I thought it was all pretty simple. I've never been there before, Jeff has been there more than acouple of times. His wheel fell off on 520 upper. (broke an axle).

I ordered some alum panties from Bud. I cant wait to get them on!
