  • Rush Trailclearing, April 7th-9th

    Our spring Rush trip is right around the corner!

    We'll do a little trail work, and a lot of wheeling. Open to all sizes and shapes, if we have to split into over and under 35s, we will. Solid tow points are always appreciated.

    I personally won't head down til early Saturday, and I'll be bringing at least a few Tristate guys with me.

    I assume we'll camp in the same spot we always do?

    Who else is planning on it, and what did we have in mind for trail work? At the Feb meeting, we talked about HalfPipe?

    Thursday night or Friday morning:
    Kevin
    Mark
    Jeff & Zac
    Jim B
    Jim C
    Scott
    Chris
    Definite maybe Tony Flint

    Saturday Morning:
    Me
    Adam
    Sam and Zach
    Jeff and Allie
    Eric J
    Jacob
    And still a handful of maybes, but not likely...

    I'm in. A few of us will probably head down Friday morning like we always do.

    The camp spot will depend on the rain. I'm not sure how sloppy that spot by 5 guys gets if its wet.

      I didn't think we'd camped down there for a few years. I was thinking up on the other side, where we were last March and August.

      I'll let you guys decide when you get there, and then just invite myself to join you!

      I'll bring firewood, so save me a spot by the pit for my trailer.

            Added a preliminary list, will update...

            There's at least a few of us planning to convoy down Saturday morning. Rendezvous point and departure time TBD, once we know who all is coming from where.

                  Had major trouble wheelin' today when I had front driveshaft turning but no front wheel rotation despite the ARB locker engaged. I have not even pulled the diff cover but I can not imagine the situation without catastrophic failure in the front diff. The only good thing is that I didn't hear any CHUNKing of metal in the front dif.

                  Regardless, will take the relatively stock jeep as backup to the trail cleaning and camping if I can't fix the facta non verba in time.

                    I will most likely be rolling out Friday Morning also, got a few things to fix on the rig but shouldn't be a problem.

                        Yes. a 1000, and possibly mine. If you go, I will definitely bring mine. You ain't boating in April, so no excuses for not going.

                              Tomorrow, I'm pulling the front dif cover hoping not to find an exploded ARB locker or broken axle shafts. Last time out had the front drive shaft turning but the tires didn't spin. Both tires. Never ever saw that happen.

                              I am still in but with reservations. I'm lucky to have a backup jeep.
