Need opinions, on fender flares, save weight and go with aluminum??? Or go steel for strength and not care about weight.
Totals about 110 lbs difference.
Trailmods removable fenders. Has street and trail mode. Pricey but so is everything else. When I go 37, I may go this route. This way I wont have to deal with cutting my flares and will have the added clearance I need.

What's sad is Chris, DStack, and Jayson wouldn't hesitate an instant to jump on this, but I'd be too chicken.
I'm in.... Not so much sad as WE ARE CRAZY

I may try to make this one as I missed last year's gathering. Need to get my Currie tie rod and drag link repaired prior to the ride however - stuff is belching grease, rusting, and all twisted up due to the design of the TREs.

Like this renowned 4x4 guru who I'm told lives in the caves up in the mountains. Sightings of the guy are fairly rare. Hear he has a big rig that he drives around at night without the lights on . . . got eyes like a cat - wears heavily shaded glasses in the day to protect them.

Update: Heard he doesn't use his cat eyes anymore at night now that he's running several Rigid Industries LED configurations. Just lights up the night like it's daytime - still wears his shades, especially at night since it's so bright.

Wilbur got to play with nine (9) other 2DRs yesterday. He found some trails he can't wait to show to his 4DR friends.

Bryan took the below shot of a 2DR playing in the mud - Wilbur wasn't up for a mud bath so I skipped the slop where possible.



Some pics I took of yesterday's adventure:

Climbing out of the creek area.



We got stretched out on the trails at times. I'm in the middle with probably six guys behind and five or six ahead of me.



Some of the new folks navigating the trails.



We picked up the Mango JK (at the intersection) while out roaming through the meadows.



Sky was clear and blue, and temperatures were warm enough for short sleeves.
