In rod we truss...
Subscribe@Rob,
Did you think you really needed the arctec truss? I see you run 37s so that's a little more stressful than my 35s. I'm just trying to get a idea of how necessary the armor kit is

Yes I think its necessary for the trails I like to run. A friend of mine actually cracked his long side (JKUR D44) tube on Coyote Lake a couple months ago. I never saw him bounce and he had very little wheel spin but he still managed to break it. The LCA skids are something I wish I would have done right away. The LCA brackets are really thin and in a vulnerable position and made of really thin metal.Originally Posted by 2012Crusher

If I was only going to run Miller-like trails I would at the very least gusset the C's for any size tire. The thing is Ill bet once you go to bigger tires and have more time on trails you are going to start pushing into more challenging terrain.

If you arent going to do C's I would just try to watch your lines and use low range and low gears for better control. Try not to bounce or wedge the front and youll be fine. Miller has a couple optional lines that are fun but its not a hard trail by any means.
