Hill climbs

I've got plenty of spare sammi parts...

I'm needing some upgrade parts eventually...

I'm still unclear as to 'where' you guys are talking about...

And even if I were to upgrade to yota axles... I have no misconceptions about it curing my 'breaking stuff' problems.. All it's gonna do is turn it's attention to elsewhere on the rig... But... I think that's just my style of driving showing up... I think, no matter what I had... I'm gonna thrash my stuff... I'll do my best to prevent problems(as much as I am able)... Repair on the trail as fast as I can... Or limp back to the trailer under my own power...

I mean hey... How much fun would I be to wheel with if I always took the safe route... Or always took the side trails around obstacles... Or winched every time my tires lost traction... I would rather switch gears and pin the throttle.. Just to see what happens!! I wanna go everywhere I can... And even places I can't!

Liberty has long, loose hill climbs and rocky ravines. Sort of a funny little town. Felt like we were driving thru a movie set for Little House on the Prairie! July 4th we are planning to head to Naches. The 4th falls on a Thursday so we will probably head out on Wed to get a decent spot on Little Naches Road along the river.

Not a good place to break stuff...

Oh come on...It's not that bad! :haha:

Well, if you do upgrade to Toys, at least your focus on breakage will be on another weak link, and not the axles... My guess would be the T-case mounting area, but I don't speak from exp or nuttin'...:redneck:

liberty is awesome, especially up behind the ranger station. With the fires last year is it even going to be open this summer?Ive got a good friend who lives in liberty, very cool old town.:beer:

My understanding is Liberty will be open, and it will be up to the users to clear/open trails back up (burn/blow downs, etc...)... I WILL, however, get confirmation of this BEFORE heading over...
