Hi All,

Thanks for you input, Humjay and 2 Xtreme if you ever want to go wheel'n just hit me up with a PM. I would definately hit the mounds again it was great but I would probably go when it is just a tad less wet

Still waiting to hear back from the dealership but the manager and service department do sound in my corner so fingers crossed but like I said I will go to small claims court if needed. Like Hummjay said the radio chatter was horrible and they would say watch out for this obstical you need to stay high and to the right...heck I was 15 trucks and at least 5 turns back from what they were talking about. I have lots of off-road time in dune buggies so I wasn't totally lost but these were definately not novice trails and once your in your all in because you can't just jump out of line in the woods.

I totally agree the wheel'n breaks stuff...will I do it yep, will I pay for it, probably not with a smile but yep, but this time not with out a fight because in my opinion I didn't make the mistake or do anything stupid \ wrong.

More updates to come.

Ok, this may be a little "out there" but might these "sponsors" be setting customers up to damage vehicles in order to reap the repair costs?

Regardless, is there some type of alternator splash guard that could resolve some of these issues or is the alternator literally being submerged?

Not being an alternator expert, is there a "sealed" alternator out there?

And I agree about the wheel well cracks if it was done off road. Offroading trashes things. HOWEVER - if these are cracking under normal driving conditions, soemthing is up. I haven;t damaged anything on mine yet and winter is qickly approaching. I will keep an eye on mine to see how they hold up to the harsh winter conditions here, especially the freezing rain storms...
