Awesome pictures, thanks for sharing.

I’m curious about your wheel/tire setup. What size Kendas? Do you have a lift? Need to use spacers to get tire clearance?

I have a Sasquatch Big Bend I want to put Black Diamond steelies on with -35” tires. I’m finding different opinions on fitment and fibbing without spacers.

@orion Great photos…...and memories. I ran Lockhart S -> N two years ago in a ‘96 Land Cruiser. Wondering which way you went and if you encountered any problems with your Bronco along the way?

That's what I like about so much of the western U.S. once you get out of the cities and major agricultural valleys - wide open spaces, grand vistas, and lots of elbow room. Thanks for sharing.

Went north to south. No problems at all really.

This spot had me puckering a little due to the drop to the passenger side, and driver tire climbing the rock coming up out of the wash. Plus no spotter...

A pic that shows what I'm talking about better.

This was probably the toughest part and did have to use both lockers.

And some flex.

Yeah, it is awesome going hours without seeing another soul! It wasn't until 3/4 of the way I ran across two mountain bikers! Next time I'll be camping instead of a hotel room. Too cold at night right now...

The tires are 35x10.50R17's Kenda Klevers. They are awesome thus far. I have the Eibach Pro Truck 2.0 Coilovers probably sitting at a 2" lift maybe at where I have them set. I have the JKS Max Tire Clearance kit installed, just because I want to go 37's in the future. I don't think I needed it with my setup as is. And finally, 1.25" wheel spacers only because I wanted to keep my Scrub Radius as stock as possible. I don't think they need to be run with the skinnier tires.

Love a good dump!

It looks like some great terrain with plenty of scenery, nice!

You left off your Ford Performance rear diff cover, but I get it. I hear all the cool kids are painting theirs.

That's like painting your finger (and toe?) nails ... for the Starbucks parking lot bro-flex crowd.


(says the guy who has only been "offroad" this decade when dragging trees around to be processed for firewood. Lol)


Awesome pics OP.
There looks to be some sketchy trails out there.
It'd be funny to leave a pool of beef blood at the bottom of one of those obstacles.
Scare the crap outta the next guy through.... lol.

I left you some cairns at the end next to the cave being held up with chain link fence. If you go deep enough, there is a stash of Chuck E Cheese tokens...a $2.75 value.

Considering the location, I thought it was more like:

Lockheart basin is a wild trail. Looove it. Bring gas

What in the actual fuck?

I will never view painted and jeweled diff plugs the same.
