Looks like a killer time! Why do you think you prefer AOAA over Rausch?
@WheelinWithWallyСағат бұрын
If I remember right Rausch was way more expensive and much smaller. AOAA just seemed more fun. It was marked better, the trails were more fun, views were better and it just felt more like an adventure for some reason. That's just my opinion though. Both parks were still fun but if I could only go back to one I'd pick AOAA personally

I dont get it. Why are there bolts coming out of the bottom if they dont grip the skidplate?

@@dylandog1289 the bolts that come down do grip the skid plate with the nuts. My skid just has a recessed plate that's hard to see that allows the bolt heads to sit inside of the skid so they won't get caught on things off roading.

@@WheelinWithWally Ah, then different years have different plates. Mine is a single plate with no recessed secondary plate so my bolts are exposed a bit. I noticed my bolts are at the extreme of the slot in the plate indicsting possible misalignment. Every other photo ive seen has the bolts in the center of the slots.

@@dylandog1289 my skid is an aftermarket one. That could be but I wouldn't imagine that would be the cause. You could always put a jack under the transmission and support it. Then loosen the trans mount bolts and see how it looks. Mine is fairly smooth but I've added so many mods and large mud tires it's definitely not a Cadillac. Do you have a lift or aftermarket parts? I still wonder if something else is causing the vibration and now you are just feeling it more because the new trans mount is transferring vibration more than the old one.

Any idea what the route cause was? One positive for you, at least in the US you will be able to get parts fairly easily and find people to work on Wally, in the UK these days there really aren't many people willing to work on TJs. Anyway, hoping repairs go as smoothly as possible and best wishes from the UK.
