The brush guards and snorkel are on the D1. A few short weeks, the lift, tires, diff guards and sliders will be on and it will be time to play!

I'd be willing to go this weekend for a day trip as long as we just do the kiddie trails.

(aka nothing requiring skid plates or body damage)

(and yes I am a fucking pussy)

dude, i drove a stock spankin jeep grand cherokee and toyota 4runner on every single trail at unf, NO body damage as long as your careful, and only go down daniel (and MAYBE kodak).

really its not the body damage I'm worried about, I can fix any dents in my cladding with a heat gun.

its the lack of skid plates I'm worried about. I had a couple dents in my ole troop's skids last time I went out there and it had more clearance than the VX (but a much longer wheelbase, so who knows I might be ok)

I really want to give the nitto's a try offroad.

yall shouldn't really be worried about body damage. if you're not trying harder lines and you take bypasses you should be fine, in my opinion

yeah ive done it and seen it done in more than a couple cars with open diffs....its all about the finesse, momentum, and dropping the foot when you need to....lockers on any normal vehicle (not a trail specific one) are pretty stupid in my opinion
