    took the vx out wheeling today.

    Sorry no pictures.
    Nice little trail up American fork canyon called forest lake trail. Nice medium level trail, probably beyond a stock vx, but just right for a modified one. This was the first time I was able to try out the terra low transfer case I installed. The 3.07 gears and the automatic work very well with each other. I managed to hole a side wall in one of my pro comp mud terrains, which sucked because the donut spare doesn't really work with 35's. I was able to plug up the hole with tire plugs to get out, but that tire is junk now.
    I was pretty impressed with the vx. The 784 springs flex out nicely and the short wheelbase sure allows more line choices than the troopers I'm used to. Now if I can just learn to stop smacking my head on door frame, I do miss the trooper headroom.
