Serious offroaders have them backwards posers have them forwards :whistle:


serious off roaders know how to wade properly so would make no difference which was it faces, as you should match your bow wave speed not fly through it,

on a different note i have mine backwards as is sounds better :p

Didnt specificaly mean during wading :whistle:

less likely to get the top ripped off by low hanging branches with it backwards, as the rear of the head is curved rather than catchin on the flat grill at the front ;)

My winch works :) went down the forest with my cousin and drove into bog up to the door sills in mud, strapped it to a tree and dragged me straight out, no problems. :cheer:

Had a nasty wheel wobble after that so checked it over when I got home, found a rock stuck to the dish of the rim along with a load of mud, couldn't believe it but hopefully that's all it was.

Very happy and ready for pay and play tomorow hopefully someone will get some pics the course is going to be messy with all the rain we've had.

Removed ARB while I had the bumper off and strengthened recovery points. Cut the bottom hole off and used a 2 Ton d-link in the big hole at the top which hangs down the same as before. Hopefully no more bending recovery points.
