Small update till I get back from crawling...
Replaced the rear axle support with... Yep, some CF!



A little more beef towards the motor an less sticking out the rear to catch..

Then just my balance point with the Switch..



Ok, ill be back in a few hours with crawl pics..

As promised.. this is just the start of the hiking/crawling...





Then I found this, thought it looked tough enough..







Up an over.., dig around an hit the second spot of the rock..







Then I saw a line that looked crazy! With one slip I woulda went crazy!... Hahaha







Then I did a tire change.. Bc's on for some testing.. they are very smooth! I'm not sure they have convinced me yet.. but I didn't have them at the normal crawl appt yet either..







Then the hikers made it back down the mountain, so I got cut off, but this is where I was heading..



More testing tomm.. ill try an get some video at some point.. never tried..

That place is sick! I wish I had something like that close by me. I'm drooling all over the place right now. Nice pics man. Keep 'em coming. Rig looks sweet too. So fun to see builds come together and then evolve over time.

Thanks, ya know tho.. I do the same thing over some of the other guys pics.. lol.. its bout 20mins away an I just don't get there much.. there is lots an lots more there, its "rock run" hours an hours an days of rock! It one of my best friend an I's favorite hiking spots. Wait till I crawl it in the winter an lost pics of that! It's stuff you seen on posters an in calendars.. got out for a couple hours today, too busy crawling for pics.. testing the boss claws some more.. I do like them! Better on The course rock an smooth reaction an crawling.. I'm still not sure they out weigh the rovers.. but I'm still getting use to the rig, so switching tires an testing how they work while I'm still trying the Switch... Not sure I'm goin to get all the right feel of the tires.. all I know is the Switch works its arse off an does it looking good the whole time! This Sat will be the real test.. COMP!

Here's were I got them.... Well Dr. Frank wanted me to order some and ship them to him so this was the cheapest I found. You can order them individually for $.08 each even though it says sold in quantity of 50.... Hope this helps

Edit: Wow didn't realize I forgot the link Here it is.... Brass Inserts

I tried running the Boss Claws here in PA. Too much dirt and leaf litter for my liking. They don't clean out as well as the Sedonas or Rovers. Can't wait to see your rig on Sat.

Give them a shot at Actives, you never know. I never ran them up there. Glad to help with the MT4 set up when you get squared away.

I think I may, once I get there tomm.. there on, what the hell..

Got out yesterday, got 3 pics an snap bucket went to crap on me..
A little spot we like..







Well, fun fun, that's it.. the Switch did make it around that rock.. the first time I tried it.. left front tire just wouldn't let go! Then the next 20 tries where no good.. lol . Too much thinking involved or trying too hard. Anywho.. its Brian an I's main test spot. Has a little of everything.

Thought I would try a little something tonight, as I wasn't getting enough tire to the ground on some climbs, like trying to catch an edge while standing on the back tires.. nothing new, just new to me..




Best part, most of the weight under the axle at vertical..



Just barely fits with the .475 slw hubs.. the inside edge just touched the wheel, so I took a sharpining stone to it an knocked the edge off.. fits perfect..
