Next wheelin trip?

[jrgaylor]

Wonder if we can find this trail

 

[whitetrashfab]

Looks like a fun trail, I can think of a few trails that need that sign...

I bought a locker for my front axle today so I might have the front back together sometime this weekend, might even have some time to fix the back springs.

Looks like I should be able to make this trip. Ken knows about it too and I should be able to get a better answer from him on Sunday.

Liberty, right????

There is a separate thread for it http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=254884but everyone is posting here.


Who else will be coming to Liberty?

 

[whitetrashfab]

Anyone who wants to go to the rocks with Joe and I can meet up with us at the Kaner flats camp ground Saterday and Sunday. Chris , Forrest, and some other friends of ours with toyota's will be there also. The plan is to run some of the trails we ran on the last trip now that things are not so dry and dusty, maybe we will see some snow? Its going to be cold so dress warm!

 

[Albino 94LTD]

Naches it is

OK, seems like more folks want to go back to the Naches/Rimrock area than Liberty

Where do you want camp set up?

On the river as close to NFS1901 (the road we came down from the Kaner trail)?

I'll still be heading out Friday morning and should be there by noon.

 

[whitetrashfab]

Yeah, we were planing on staying in that area since its close to the trails. Glad you decided to come with us!

You will be there before me so I would guess that any place thats big enough for a lot trucks and trailers with a fire pit would be good. Joe and I were talking about the Kaner flats camp on the right side of the 1900 rd on the way up to where we camped last time. There will be at least 5, maybe 6 trucks and trailers going over with me.

I don't think they will allow OV's in the Kaner campground, also there isn't much room for big rigs and trailers in there.

Look for my EF flag and I'll try to paint up a big chunk of cardboard witha blue oval and EF in the middle.

Now I need to make an appointment at Randy's (wife is going to KILL me)

Not sure what this exactly means but ............

Reading into it more as long as you are technically "street legal" you are AOK. Found many reads on Kaner VERY popular with 4Wheelers & bikers

What's wrong with one of those free camping areas along the river? Looks like I should be able to scrounge up enough gas money for this, but I can't afford another $40 plus in camping fees.

Ken is out. He is going hunting the following weekend and can't afford both. I was supposed to go hunting with him but can't get my huter safety course done by then. Not sure if I'll bring both rigs this time or not.

 

[jrgaylor]

Free camping is fine with me, there looked like there was plenty of places for along the river in that area

 

[whitetrashfab]

Yeah, Im thinking free also... I was just ment in that area, closer to the trails the better.

 

[whitetrashfab]

A little snow would be fun...

Did anyone come up with a place to camp? I'll just drive down the road till I see everyone and pull in.

 

[Albino 94LTD]

I've been a little busy trying to break in the new gears.

I'll have the kid paint a big piece of cardboard, white background and blue oval with 'NWX' in the middle, plus I'll try to hang the EF flag and hope it doesn't grow feet and dissapear.

I still got to put about 200 miles on the gears, then change the fluid. Then comes the trailer towing break in

Got new shocks on the back of the Bronco, thats about all I am going to get done before this run

You guys with rig trailers better be bringing a LOT of firewood!

 

[jrgaylor]

If I can find a container for it I will bring about 20 Gallons of Glycerine, It will need a decent fire burning first before putting it on, but once it is lit it will take the chill off, it burns hot and no smoke

 

[whitetrashfab]

I will bring fire wood in the bed of my truck, I will tell others to do the same. Andy is trying to go now, he will get back in town early in the morning and driver over to meet us if he can. He is leaving the jeep at home and taking the samurai this time if he can make it.

What gears and locker did you end up going with Albino?

 

[Albino 94LTD]

4.56 Yukon's and an Aussie in back. It's a little loose on the highway around big sweeping curves when you get on and off the skinny pedal.

Only 150 more break-in miles until I change the fluid.
