I ride stock suspension also. I only rub on my hitch and a rock i wasnt paying attention on. Skid plates do there job. Just a few of narrow brush filled parts. So if your worried about scratches than its up to you. Lol only one trail i wont do and thats called Rons Run do to huge rock.

Well...I'm building my Jeep for overland and trips, not rock crawling. So, I also do not have skid plates under it, just the one in the front that came with the LoD bumper. Also not very thrilled about pin stripes.

If I can pick trails or lines that are not very "wild" I'm in. ;-)

I believe Emmelijk is planning Walker this coming Sunday. No clue of where it is. Will be driving from Lynnwood, so I need directions from there.

I'm also open for Rainier in case of change in plans. ;-)

I just have to shave my calipers a bit on Sunday (taking spacers off) and replace ball joints for a fellow jeeper.

If anyone wants to stop bye for a beer and some wrenching, let me know...
