RATE (Run Across The East)

[slravene]

whats the mods you ahve done to your ex? are the ones in your signature all you got, or are there more "secrets" under that bad boy

 

[big351bronc]

Yeah, thats all Ive got now. However Ill be doing a 2" body, 32" or 33" MT's, new shocks, a winch and hopefully a locker. But Ive got a while to work on it so it should all be done.

 

[slravene]

lock it first.... it makes a WORLD of a difference

 

[big351bronc]

Im assuming you like your Aussie Locker

 

[slravene]

love it...it more than doubled my capabilities.

 

[big351bronc]

are you gonna do anything else to your explorer before this run??

 

[slravene]

yea, ill be on 33s or 35s, have my sliders done, regeared, and possibly even a locked front end.

 

[nissanboy]

There is a remote possibility that I will get my Solid axle under the truck before the run but most likely not.

I agree with with Slravene... Lock the rear axle then gears and bigger tires.

 

[big351bronc]

Alright, thanks for the advice. I think Im gonna go with the Aussie locker as well - its in my price range

 

[slravene]

buy it before you buy anything else. You will not regret it.

Slravene and I were talking tonight abotu making it to the Attica run and came up with this great idea. We are going to try to pull together a 7 day even out of the Attica run.

Sounds like a great trip - count me in. I was planning on going to Crozet, and with this plan thougth I might as well do Attica too!

I'll plan to meet you at Uwharie and go from there...

Bump just to let some new eyes read it.

I would like to be part of the windrock portion of the ride. I live pretty close to there and can help with directions, lodging info and anything else. I will not be able to continue on anywhere else to wheel though.

 

[nissanboy]

Thats cool, feel free to stop in on any section of the run.

I am wanting to hit the more difficult trails at each stop. Traveling a long way to wheel means i dont want to piddle around on gravel roads when i get there.

A group of disco's and a few heeps went to windrock last weekend. Looks like they had a good ride check out the pictures at this link. http://www.4x4grace.com/board/viewtopic.php?t=2098

Boo for the mud trails... I like heading for the rocks. and the water. There is one section where you have to cross a creek that came up on my hood when I was on 33's.

Matt your alive?

 

[N2FORD]

I have pm'd him with no response, I was beginning to think he had left the board. I have been wanting to see what he is up to. So are you planning on going up rattle rock since you want to head for the rocks?

 

[nissanboy]
