You refering to upper 311 Wes? Yeah, it was a little more difficult then 520, but you did just fine. That is why I didn't suggest upper 311 to the OP. I guess what these guys are saying OP. Take my advise with a grain of salt....

Anything in Evans is going to result in some scratches you just need to accept that if you wheel in there. As long as you take things slow and use a spotter you could do quite a bit without resulting in damage to your rig. But things happen, wheels slip and rocks slide... thats what Northridge and beer is for! If it wasn't for you Mark I wouldn't have my sweet corner armor

Dang. I've been wanting to get out, but I've resolved not to venture too far or too deep on these slick little stock tires. I've been up Tinkham when there isn't any snow up there and I can already see how I'd get into trouble really quickly. I've got a plan for a lift and new tires but I'm apparently waiting on AEV to ship more springs for the 2.5" 2-door lift kit. --taps fingers on desk-- Good things come in time.

Ah yes, the anticipation of building up and being able to go out with big boys; remember it well myself. Looking forward to seeing your build and running with you.

As to the run this weekend, no dice for me. I'm super busy the rest of this month. Next month however is a different story; enjoy
