Title: Digginfool's Ride Post by: digginfool on June 10, 2006, 01:16:19 PM This is my '02 Raptor. It's got CT Racing pipe, AC nerfs, bumper and grab bar, GYTR skids, Laeger +2 a-arms, TCS long travel triple rate shocks with rezzies, Lonestar Axcalibar axle, Renthal bars, steering damper, bead locks and tons of fun. No comments about the front tires; I know they're on 'backwards.' I had read an article about mounting them backwards for more bite in sand. I was at Croom and flipped them to check it out. Really didn't notice that much of a difference although it took about an hour to leave the sand pit, ride to the campground, flip the tires and ride back. By then, not sure I really remembered what it was like. Anyway, it's a great combination. For those of you who ride Croom, with the Laeger/TCS setup, I can ride the wide whooped trail along the fence in 4th gear; that's somewhere around 50 mph, at least If you have ever thought about going wide, I highly recommend it. I'm thinking about going +2 on the swing when I do the TCS rear shock upgrade. One thing about wide, though, it really raises the pucker-factor in the woods. Those gaps between the trees start looking really skinny! :o
