Thanks BlossomCA, ya my 4WD tech background is limited as well as i'm more of a motocross guy just getting into the wheel'n thing.
Time to take on a hobby that's a bit easier on the body!!

I've had a few 4wd rigs but have only used them on fairly groomed trails and getting around in the snow.

All my buddies have mod'd jeeps but i'm not much of a follower so why do the same ... right!

Ya, i've seen a few trucks with the bobbed or dovetail boxes which are effective in tight spots but I think I like the runner idea for haul'n more people and keep'n gear dry. Besides, you can't put a canopy on a dovetailed box anyway.

Rockrails are for sure tops on my list. I'm kinda particular about keep'n my rig as strait as possible and they help move you along as well.

Have not made the purchase yet as there is no hurry to do so. Thanks again for all the input, i'll be following you guys in the forum to educate myself a bit more before i commit.

Cheers,

Rick
