Default Second Discovery Trip

Picked up a used hitch-mounted cycle carrier off Craigslist to haul my dirtbike. Went camping and riding at Pipestone OHV area on the Continental Divide in Montana.

Not my video but here's some

With the OME 2" springs and lift there was almost 0 sag in the rear and it rode fine even at 70 mph. At that speed the front got slightly twitchy but not much (and I have big skinny tires).

Was this Mr Cronin's old truck? I recollect his Disco migrated to Montana. It looks very familiar. His truck received celebrity status amongst the Pacific NW overlanders

Yep. He did all the work. I'm reaping all the rewards!
