Two weekends ago, after this little incident, I came to the conclusion I was at the end of borrowed time not having some front end protection.

Last weekend, I visted Joe at TRC and he bent some tube for me. I took it home, trimmed it, notched it and glued it on.

There are no plans as of yet to tie it to the firewall or cage.

Big thanks again Joe! The fit was great!

Looks good Chris. Sorry couldnt get my bender up and running in time. Maybe by the time you tie those into the firewall I will have mine done.

There is no way to keep me from rolling over apparently, but the tubes will protect the radiator. Not exactly an Autozone part

What is the hill east of the GH? The picture was on the optional red wall on trail 5 at Raucsh Creek.

And yes it would have gone farther without that tree

GH= German House looks like that spot just up the road fron it on the hill.

But looking at the 2nd pic I can tell it is not where I was thinking.


Glad it worked out for you.
