Another fun day in the woods today! went up the surprise lake trail (easy rocky trail with one tough section that is notorious for bending sheet metal
Trail details
Surprise Lake Trail
Made it up the trail no problem, couple scraps on the front skid plate but the truck did great.
coming through the rocks and tree stump
got to the top of the trail with out any issue but when it cam time to turn around 5 rigs in in a tiny space. came to be my turn and I dropped the front end into a hole and went to back up, wheels started slipping on a snowy wet rock pulled forward to bump the rock with the wheels turned a little too much and the driver side CV let go. (again for those keeping track)
got the truck turned around (winch maxtrax and rear locker work wonders) and down to a more open area to survey the damage
busted the rest of the CV out.
oh yes we used the winch to remove the center shaft
my trophy
Had to winch up one snowy climb that I could not quite get up in 2wheel low lol
still a great day on the trail,
