Yep, always more to learn. At this point, my focus is prevention, as my knowledge of the X grows (need to get a service manual - hopefully digital and continue to watch/read/do), it'll be about bringing spares too. I've built a toolkit I feel pretty good about based on other recommendations, but...

Tha Thanks!

Good suggestion. I should have mentioned suspension is going to be evaluated the whole way as weights change. I've done a baseline weight (empty and ready to roll) and have a pretty good feel. I agree, though, definitely, if I do bumpers, rails, and skidplates, changes will be needed. As a side...

Thank you!
