MaBell - MaBell is moderate to hard in difficulty. The trail has multiple rock ledges all the way to the top & back down. You must have lift & protection to run this trail. Lockers would help, but not required. Expect skids/sliders to scrape rock in some places.


Question...driving ability aside (I would trust my friend with my truck on ANY trail and he's actually been to MaBell a couple times)...I might be able to do a 2" body & 3" suspension lift along with 33's - possibly 35's, sliders, and armor...I already have lockers...should I be all set with that?

With 33s, a lift, sliders & skids, you should be good. I did it with my 1st gen on 32s but had protection all around so wasn't afraid of scraping & bumping.

:-) so you decided on 33s or 35s yet?

Also, make sure you have frame mounted tow points front & rear.

Not yet need to get together with Will and make a list...when I bought my truck I got free tires for life up to $175 a tire, I pay the difference...so I figure I might as well go as big as I can

Not sure if I'm going to get bumpers yet, but hopefully can throw some hooks in front & rear...

You probably have a tow hook in the front already. A trailer hitch with a D-ring attachment thing works well for the rear.

Just because my truck might be capable of running harder trails doesn't mean my driving ability is...I've got a LOT to learn before I start breaking stuff
