Big Bear Run 13 AUG

[Josh JP]

i am getting the lowest of the low, soft top, roll down windows, no A/C. i want nothing on it cause i'm have a idea for it so to answer your question i have the "willy's" model haha. I had navagation, leather, heated seats, the works in the hummer and i hated it.

[chuckanut105]

Umm I would say maybe????? Its a pretty good trail and a stock jeep would be a chalange.

[Josh JP]

well i am going to purchase tires for sure (maybe get a new set of wheels) & i should also have a lift on by then. hopefully that will be good enough.

[chuckanut105]

All I have is a 3.5"lift lift and some 35s with stock 3.21 gears and a manual trans. I had some trouble at a couple spots but like I said there are bypasses and alternate lines I used them. But you need the clearance most of all I think.

[RyanSBCA]

I only have a 1 3/4" lift and 33's... come on Josh... lets go!

on a side note... I have some chrome 18" rims with 32 in tires (I believe their 32s) on them that I need to sell
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1680
First picture has the rims I need to sell still

[Josh JP]

well today i get the jeep and im selling my travel trailer so i will have some extra cash, let me see what set up i can pull off with the cash i have.

[chuckanut105]

Ill be the first one to say you can go cheap and wheel with the beat of them. I have the budget loft from RE and it works great spend your money on shocks I have the 9000s and they work great as well. With the Jk you can go cheap and still have a pretty capable wheeler. You don't have to be like brad or DD and spend a million dollars to wheel for most trails.

Whatever.

JB and Holcomb may give you lockerless a bit of a problem. No worries, ya all have winches.

It's going to be interesting to see driver skills with open diffs on jb and holcomb. My buddy hit holcomb last week, open diffs with 31's and said he needed a tug two times. Tilly and myself are in and maybe a few more trucks.

SWEET!!! 35s and no lockers ill be fine.

It would be great to see some full size Chevys on the trail. Its sad it has to come from Bako.

fuck yeah!

Yes... It'd be nice to see Kirk out. But... These tickets aren't from the dale, they come from SGV. So.... Show some respect.


We might need more camping spots.

[chuckanut105]

Ok sorry bout the bako thing. Well then they are on there own if they have more than 3 rigs sorry guys but the group camp was booked.

Ill pay for one spot and go camp in the woods if there are too many...

I gotta get me some Tilly love.

[chuckanut105]

The other thing if we can find a yellow post spot you can have a fire and camp 200' off the trail. I couldnt find one close to the route we are running.

[Josh JP]

so i havent been there but everyone is really on these "spots" is there no area close by off the "camp ground" that after hanging out and stuff we cant camp at...and...is it where you cant go in this camp ground unless you have a spot, cause if it is that anal...cant we find a place out of the way that we all can fit in



important part is the trails and the rigs not where your sleeping. you will sleep when you get back home

[K-Rich]

We'll see what i can come up with. My truck is suppose to be in the shop the beginning of August, but we'll see if that happens.

Any one comming in the Ventura/ Oxnard chapter let me know if you want fire wood I can grab some from base. Ill even chop it for you for a nominal price of a 6-pack of good beer. Its a lot cheaper than buying the stuff from the store.

[aldo90731]

Count me in! I finally got a CB mounted too. Now just need to get the antenna tuned.

I doubt I'll be camping, though. Which day you guys recommend? Saturday or Sunday?

[chuckanut105]

Aldo either day I don't think either day is gonna be harder then the other. I would say if you gonna come up on Sunday meet jus at crab flat camp ground at about 8 then we can have a irish coffee and get on our way.

Once again.... fuck yeah! This is going to be great.

Ill let Pete answer your question on which day, but I believe he plans on running the top on Saturday (john bull, Holcomb, gold mtn) and the bottom Sunday (dishpan, 2n17x, cleghorn) .

Aldo... I can bring my antenna tuner if you like... I have the nice rat shack one.... actually, might have a cheepie around too... if so, you can have it.

Okay Aldo... there you go. Pete doesn't recommend?

But... IMO, Saturday will be the more difficult day. JB and Holcomb are likely the hardest trails worth running and Cleghorn and 2n17x are the easiest. We also have lots of rigs without lockers. This could prove interesting on the harder obstacles, but they have lots of winches and don't care about body damage (I have successfully tricked them into thinking that chicks dig body damage... what a bunch of gullible tikes!) .

BTW... that recent video of me... that was really JB, so you now know what to expect. :stirpot:

[chuckanut105]

What ever.

[RyanSBCA]

I will be getting a new antenna this week... will need help tuning it if someone is willing (Brad?)

Also, Caravan from VTA Area? What time would we leave/meetup?

Sure... when you want to come by?

Pete.... meetup? Please one locally, one in the Valley, and one near Pasadena (ask BOBBED BURB or APESHIT where is a good spot and if they want to carravan). From my house... about 3.5 hours to get there.
