We should b pulling in before midnight on Thursday (fingers crossed) with no BS on the way. 3 goosenecks, 6 rigs and a 30' camper
I swaped out my 12 bolt H1 set-ups (still with rubber runflats) with a buddy's stock Cummins wheels and tires .......went from 7.5mpg to 14.1mpg on my way home from his shop lol. Ready to pull the camper now

Fastback ......I know ur name cuz we've done some wheelin/partying at bubba's, but can't think of it now. Your more than welcome to tag along with us. none of us are bringing our kids so we tend to cut loose .......but we can probably maintain for the family lol

Just got back from Harlan. They pushed a bunch of dirt in front of the waterfall and covered about 3/4 of it. All you got now is all the way to the left by the tree.

They added a few more obsticals too. Hope you guys have better luck than we did. There was broken parts everywhere...

Power steering?

WTF are they doing? The right side was doable for someone on a fairly decent build. I know Harlan is a hardcore rig paradise, but how many seriously built up rigs are out there versus the mildly to mid built guys on 33-35" tires? There is nothing in Harlan anymore for anyone unless you're a minimum of 40s on tons... and that's pushing it. So if you're not hardcore, you're stuck riding around on smooth gravel roads. There is nothing in between. Last I heard even something as easy as Fish Fossil has gotten near impossible to get out on the exit.

I cracked a front main leaf on lower profanity. Everyone in the group had problems.

Yes, there was a huge group of JK's there. They were taking tons of pics of me dragging Terry's Jeep back with no front wheel. He broke at the top of upper profanity. Took 3hrs to get back to camp.

Instead of filling in at the waterfall, they should have filled in the giant wheel ruts at the exit of Fish Fossil. You need some monster tires to get out. Most of the #4 trails are doable by mild rigs. Some of the 4's are heading to 5's though.

i saw your truck there on our way to get gas in evarts saturday. I was with a large group of well built Yota's all locked on 37" + tires. we did many 4's in them, most were just an average build i would say still on leaves front and rear with axle upgrades. But i know i could not do most of what we did in my mild blazer. once i get it linked in the rear and locked up front i should be able to do most of the 4's i hope. however, nearly everyone in the group broke something at some point in the weekend. from high steer arms, to longfields, lockers, and a fuel pump.
