    Bruce that was a badass explanation! Is there anyway to dumb it down a little? If we can simplify it and make a couple laminated cards to pass out, then I can start calling out turns like this on certain trails. Not all trails though, but some of them.

    And on the cards I can also list the rocks; baseballs, boobs, watermelon, engine block etc

    @Rextinkleton93 sound familiar?

    We need to get you and the Uberfahrts on a run together so you and Bruce can give us some shot calling instruction and practice in the real world.

    Haha yeah. We keep it a little simpler. 1-5. 1 is 180, while 5 is essentially straight just veering one way or the other. Don’t call out distances unless it’s really dusty or is a 1 or 2. Then just call em tight or wide if they vary a bit.

    That shit up there is way too much to remember. More tailored towards rally driving it seems.

    Yup sorry i was trying to give the fundamentals and breakdown on where it started ... but my system is 1-6 direction first, no distance callout but obstacle call out.

    6 is like what you say just slight turns and 1 is hairpin or close... just like this pic

    3-1 level kit with add a leaf. 295/70/18r cooper max. Spider head light tail light and third brake light, tint, badges off, ladder racks, trd pro grill, color matched hood bulge, grab handle,coach builder +2, dv8 front bumper with winch, fender flares, bed cover....
    What about a trd pro suspension with the 2” sst lift. And atlas leaf pack plus 2 I live in pa real tight trails. It’s my dd and use it for construction but do end up in the woods at least a few times a month. I got a price 2100$ plus the leaf springs

    Personally I’d either go with the Icon stage 2 or the fox equivalent to please @osidepunker, pair those with the atlas leafs and you will have a solid setup that you can slowly upgrade as you can/want.

    I messed up, Icon stage 1 or fox equivalent to start out with paired with the atlas leafs you were already planning on buying.
