Thank you very much @Gaurav 🙏

Hope you've not had a huge jump in the desert, small situational ones are fine. If it's an accident, like a huge jump that caused the crack, replacing the OEM will be fine. If it's not an accident, then upgrading to performance arms will be better for regular off-roading.

Hello Frederic , Thank you for your remark . My application for Fewbie was still opened, missing gear proof . I just submitted real photos of the gear for review by the team 🙏 I will see you soon on the next drive . wishing you a fun drive and hope to seeing you soon!!

You will be rewarded by the target terrain

Oh boy! Reaching the meeting point itself would be one adventure

@Abu Muhammad I always revise the tape post drive , then you realize details that was overlooked when you are relaxed at home . I believe this is the best way to learn , in other words I always get my home work done before the next drive . And as a community I like to share it so others can learn too . In my opinion the theory supported by real Audiovisual Pre and especially post drive is essential if not crucial . i hope you got your steering power issue sorted out eventually . cheers 🚙👍🙏🏻

@Luke K PI am told the arm has cracks and I can feel and hear the front left tyre side restricted and struggling (along with noise which sounds like I am driving post a pop out) during an aggressive pickup and also during full acceleration when turning in the sands I have got the tyres and wheels checked already.
