Bronco Rack gets wrecked on Papa Smurf Winter Jamboree 2025 Kickoff
On today’s episode we Kickoff Winter Jamboree with a trail that is new to us called Papa Smurf. Papa Smurf is rated an 8 in Sand Hollow which requires some experience behind the wheel and I would say a decently built rig. The group was small and during the week we had the trail to ourselves so kick back and enjoy as we rip through Day 1 and Winter Jamboree…

      @TrailMilitia 6 годин тому

      Great question, I thought I stated it but we paid full boat for the 74 Welds and we were going to buy the Werewolf’s but exchanged some background work and support with building a complete set in exchange. Now to keep it clear we went into this without any script or any sort of regulations about what we can say or do. Big reason why even though only one was cash we paid for both theoretically. This whole process is to really shine light on 2 things the best kit and if portals are even worth the squeeze. We will be learning as the process continues just like you everything is documented and transparent.

    Did you watch the video that 74Weld made about materials and why they use what they do? They said Loren Healy rolled a bronco off a trailer at 70mph…vehicle was completely destroyed and the portals were pulled from that vehicle and bolted right on to another Bronco. Doesn’t seem like they need the brace

    • @TrailMilitia
      @TrailMilitia 6 годин тому

      Yeah I did see that and I actually wheel and talk to Healy from time to time regarding the brace that one incident wont cover the constant pounding over time. Bracing doesn’t necessarily mean they will break or anything significant will happen but they will leak and cause issues. Right now to be fair its all hear say till we go out and find out… because they may be right it might not be needed.

    If you ever get something damaged in shipment like a bent stud just contact us. We would happily send you a replacement free of charge. It seems like you didn’t get vent hose. That should have been in the kit and if not that is totally our mistake. A phone call and we would have had you hose the next day.

    They are cool for trying to fit 40s but they can never replace good suspension. They offer clearance but not better ride quality or support if carrying heavy gear.

    • @TrailMilitia
      @TrailMilitia 5 годин тому

      This is something we continue to test and figure out. We also do think a good set of coilovers with proper spring rates is a must but the gearing will definitely help with carrying extra gear.

    • @TrailMilitia
      @TrailMilitia 5 годин тому

      I recently got the weight although I do not believe it matters significantly. Fronts 74 are 70LBs and Wolfs are 110LBs the rears are pretty close. It’s not rotational although we do believe it might cause some adjustment of spring rates and things of that nature our BRO science till we go out and test a little more seems like the extra weight should help settle the front a bit.
