Full size on Independence

[Lars915]

After almost a year of mods, I finally got my truck onto Independence a few weeks ago. It was by far the best technical trail ride I've ever been on! It took us about 6 hours to get two Jeeps and my Bronco cab truck all the way through and out Patriot with the only carnage being a broken brake line fitting and a blown winch on the exit.

I posted a video of the drop in at: (~34Mb)

so when did you knock out your headlight?

On the big block right at the exit. It pounded flat on the second try. I don't consider most sheet metal damage to be carnage, it just shows me what needs to be removed or relocated.

how'd you get a blown winch?

POS Milemarker blew the drum brake on power out with no load. Too fragile for me, I'll be replacing it with a Warn as soon as I can.

I loved watching the mirror get blown off on the first drop. :P I guess you know where that needs to be "relocated" to. ;)
