Cool, thinking about putting one of these in my ZR2 blazer. I've read where several have mentioned the "clicking" and "popping". Just wondering if it's worth doing. How many miles do you have it?

Went to Badlands Offroad Park in Attica IN for a shake down run and the radflo's did pretty well. Actually overall the truck really well. The new tires, shocks, coilovers, n such made for a great day on the trails. Not many pics from me as it was cold, but will add some if anyone else posts them on the other forum the trip originated through.

2-9-14 Return to Badlands

I went out for the day with 6 JKs. It was cold and solid ice under the snow, but fun. TB really impressed the people along. Everyone was 35s or 37 inch tires and at least one locker. My tires did amazing and managed every climb first try even when dual lockered rigs were needing a bypass after multiple attempts. I do know the 4.2s power was noticed a couple times and it really did help keep wheel speed when needed. I took very few pics and Jeep guys did not seem to want many of the TB, but here a few.

--For those that have been around Badlands and know the trails. We did the Orange Trail first. All the drops/hills/off-chamber is made even more interesting when frozen. Kinda wished I had my front swaybar hooked while in the little tllted s-turns. Supposedly there is some video, but who knows if it will ever surface.


Went up this hill first try. One of 3 of 7 to do it first try.

and Over


Actually made me happy to have the Radflo as there was a 10-12 inch bump at the bottom that hit hard and if you did not hit it about 15 mph, you did not make it. Guess the tires caught some air but I have not seen a pic yet.

Trails were pretty but treacherous and controlled slides were necessary.
















Couple random pics from a buddy's cabin we stayed at the night before. All hand built with native wood. No electric, just lanterns, woodstove, and a rain barrel for water.
