Climbing Big Ledges at Chili Challenge, Las Crusas, NM

Which atlas do you have? I am thinking real hard about the new 4 spd. in a 2.72, 3.8, and 10.3.
I was barely getting hung up on the 4' ers. Most i could roll through. So a little more belly height would be good.
My wheel base is 121". We lengthened it for better departure and approach. It worked great. On P's Revenge my rig and only two buggies out of 25 made it up the big waterfall.
Regarding belly height: I currently am running ORE double throwdowns at a 4" lift rather than the normal 6". Much better for the severe off camber stuff. To get increased belly I am getting 43" SS TSL/SX. After that we might redesign the gas tank. It hangs too low.
I like where my rig is at overall. It handles really well on roads and on trails.

915rubicon. You are right. Next time we'll come down with a few rigs and wheel. Lots of interesting trails there. Yesterday we were in one that started with 16 rigs. 7 broke. We got everyone out, but boy, was it a long day.

Biggy, this one I winched

I was last in line of 25 rigs. It was chewed up. The BLM officers who were watching wouldn't let us stack rocks.
The bigger ledges I crawled. The smaller ones I crawled then rolled through.
Fandango. I'll be around. Look me up.
