Sounds like she could do Rattle Snake without too much trouble with the way she is setup. Let her give it a try at least and then we can head up to Constrictor.

:D

I remember this it terrymac said he couldn't make it at teh first but he was on the wrong line but his rig is capable of doing the trail. Shmoe if you couldn't get past the first part of AF canyon MB. then don't go. the first of RS looks the same. you need some lift on your sami then you would have it. But it would be fun to watch. From what I'ver heard a sami really can't do Constricter maybe one with bigger axles but i think it's mostly the wheelbase that stops sami's from doing it. BUt of course I've never seen ether trail. Just my $.02.

chris, it was just a bad day for my sammy...I went up to mineral basin last week in my samurai and went straight through the first part, no problems, just did the splits over the rocks(which is what I was trying to avoid the 1st time)and then I went straight through the rockgarden, getting hung up only 2x for very short periods of time, once on my rock rails and once on my driveline when I hit a rock with my front pumpkin cap which rolled it up into the front drive shaft.....It wasnt my clutch burning that day, it was someone elses, when I did mineral basin last week, there was no clutch smell at all, even though I was using it about the same as before...so anyway, mineral basin is a can do, if you are juding my sami's abliity to do RS by that.

I'm not bashing your sami at all man. I'm just going by what i saw on MB i was there when you made it past the first part just took a little while. thats cool if you made it last time you went. Half the clutch smell was from me so i have no argument. I posted asking what it took to run Constricture and everyone laughed that i wanted to know thinking i would take my sami on it my sami is not even close to being able to make constricture. i have no plans on running constricture.

less WB = more departure angle.

Why don't you take a pic of your rockers, driveline, and steering after that trail?

SCHMOE....you can run rattlesnake, EASY!!! rattlesnake is more like some sort of benign retarded garden snake.....there is little or no danger on rattlesnake...now constrictor, that is a different story, that trail is twisted!!

I might bring out the zuk for a bash-fest, I borrowed some tires and it will roll itself out there. I have a winch too!!

bring out the stock heigth zuk, I would like you to show these folks a thing or two about the power of determination and a stock heigth zuk!! rattlesnake will be CAKE!!!
