Truckhaven is not a large area. It is a fun playground for about an hour or so but I am not sure one should plan to make a day of it. There are a few short climbs and man-made obstacles but it is a pretty small area. If you are in the area anyway, it is a fun place to play around, especially if you are trying to get used to your Jeep. Ocotillo Wells is a fun place to drive around, much better on a motorcycle or in a side by side or sand rail but a Jeep can have fun in the canyons and on the hills.

Felt like I was straight up vertical, I wasn't!

If I can ever get my Death Wobble solved, I would love to get out on the trails again!

Is there like any actual chance a Jeep can get over that?
I mean my Gladiator would probably straddle it, but a wrangler??

Just put a steering stabilizer on it, that should buy you a couple weeks worth of wheeling ?
I already put on a new Fox stabilizer. I wish that was the issue. Going in to the shop on Monday for my 3rd try at a worth destination to fix the issue!! (not including 2 other places that have done alignments)

I don't think a traditional Jeep would get over that. It is a buggy thing, at least seems that way to me. It is so steep and I ad nowhere near the guts to climb higher then. I might be able to make it a bit higher now but not even close to the top!

I don’t think pinyon seems that much of a challenge flex-wise. As long as your nuts are tight enough not to fall off you’ll be fine:rock:
My nuts will be pretty tight going through the squeeze:bandit:

Hmmm so now I'm starting to see rain at the end of the week. Might need to keep an eye on that.
