Took the 89 for a Shake down run on its first "difficult" run this weekend. I was pleased. With the new fan clutch and the Dual condenser fans the Temp guage never moved. The crawler gears take the rig to a new level. I was able to move through tight turns with ease and with the SWB and 33's never touched a skidplate or a slider. Granted, Pinion mountain is a Difficult trail but on the bottom end of "difficult" in my opinion. The real test will be Holcomb/John bull/Gold moutain trifecta in the spring. I need to get busy on the gas tank skid.

The wife bought me a carpet kit for Christmas so I'll be putting that in soon and getting rid of the blue stuff. Anyone tried Dynamat to reduce road noise?
