minimedic, So already your going to be bottoming out, wrecking your ****** pan, and getting stuck in the sand =) oh's no's! heck of a trip for ya there =p
AJ Chime in here pls if im off base... but im asuming this trail isnt very treterous and rocky, if its mostly sand, your better off w/ tow hooks than skids, sand is like pillows to your undercarriage. =)
keep in mind i ran back way to crown king (a trail not recomended w/ out a lift kit and full skids) stock, no skids w/ nerf bars (which stayed attached all the way through, despite the many side bets that at least one nerf bar would fall off hehehe) Its all how you drive and what you decide to get yourself into. Tho you cant put a price on piece of mind somtimes. but! w/ a level head, a bit of luck, patience, and a good spotter, yull be fine =) Tho w/ the skids ect... youll focused more on the beauty of the area than the bottom of your vehicle, hehehe. I missed 1/2 of crown king b/c i was under my jeep in my head 1/2 the time vs enjoying the beauty of the trail.
