I need a head count on who will be attending this run in Bradenburgh on the 21 ST of Nov. Lunch will be provided by K&I Four Wheelers That is why the head count is needed. Also the meet time is 0745 that morning at the intersection of 60 and 144 if anyone needs directions to that intersection just send me a message. Also 10 dollar unwrapped toy is the admission for this run. No toy will cost you 20 to run the trails.

What would you mean as full size? One guy has a stock bronco and the other is a 90's toyota on 35's.

A Friend of mine Broke both back windows in his K5 blazer there 2 weeks ago. Just let them know it can get a little tight on the bigger rigs. Ask wagonburner it even gets tight on the JK at times.

ya just a bit, you can make it as long as you dont love your fenders :D , some places you will have to do a 2 or 3 point turn but be warned that if you dont have rockers you will be in for a surprize, i used min from rock cralling to pivoting around trees. with that said you dont want to miss this trip

Just got the waiver that everyone has to sign. I will have them at the staging area Sat Morning. Everyone bring a pen will speed up the process greatly. Also just shooting this out is anyone interested in camping Sat night and doing some night wheeling. Steve the owner has not made a finale decision on this so more info to come. Also don't forget to pick up your toys (1 10$ toy per vehicle) no toy 20$ charge to run the property. It looks like we may have 30 + rigs at this event should be a great time. I will be at the intersection of 60 and 144 by 0730 pulling out by 0745 so don't be late.

Im definitely up for night wheeling. Gona have my new 100watt offroad lights hooked up and they should be lighting up the world. lol
armymedic

In a large group all the extra lights are a pain. Last time we did night wheeling we all were running rock lights and parking lights. When your running large lights your spotter cant see what is going on. There is several locations on this farm were you will need a spotter. :D

I believe camping is out for Sat night now, But it's on for tomorrow night if anyone is interested.

Just so you all know how crazy this bunch can get here is what's going on in the thread at the Kifourwheelers.com website.
THE MOAB BOULDER DASH
So here's the deal MOAB OFFROAD is having a relay race on the "Boulder Road" at the toys for tots event
The race will consist of 2 sections a lower and upper. Each section will be timed. This is a 2 vehicle per team race, one completing the lower and the other completing the upper. (imagine a relay race) You may do the race as a 1 vehicle team, however you will have a 5 minute penalty and must switch drivers going into the upper section. You may get a bonus for doing the lower section in reverse, blindfolded forward, and or in full costume. http://www.kifourwheelers.com/forum/Smileys//default/afro.gif
RULES:
2 vehicles per team
4 person max.
2 person min.
5 minute penalty for a 1 vehicle team (driver and spotter must switch starting the upper section)
Time clock starts when a vehicle or spotter crosses the start line into the course
Spotter may stack rocks
Spotter may use a spotter line or strap to help vehicle
Spotter CANNOT TOUCH MOVING VEHICLE http://www.kifourwheelers.com/forum/Smileys//default/evil.gif doing so will result in a DQ for that section
Vehicle stuck for more than 5 min. per section will result in a DQ
Spotter may leave course for winching but vehicle cannot or will be DQ
10 minute bonus for starting and completing lower section in reverse or blind folded forward
1 minute bonus for each team member in FULL costume!!!! Be creative. http://www.kifourwheelers.com/forum/Smileys//default/banana.gif
There will be 1st 2nd and 3rd place prizes for the best times
All questions will be answered at the drivers meeting during lunch. Event will start around 3 PM. http://www.kifourwheelers.com/forum/Smileys//default/cool.gif
Unless your running 37's or bigger i would stay out of this.
What is the intell for camping Friday night?
Cancel the passenger, it will just be me.

Not real sure on what time i will be heading up there. I need to see if wagonburner can lead the group up Sat morning if i camp. Don't really want to have to drive back down the next morning. The owner is going to call me tomorrow and let me know what time he's heading down.I know this is not a lot of info but it's all I've got for now.

does it make the noise when you turn the wheels back and forth? what you can do is take a long screw driver and start touching things while it is running, like the power stearing pump, alternator, idler pully, AC. if you can feel a vibraration in something that matches the sound, then that should be your problem. or bring it by my place friday after work and I can listen to it.

Ill be there. I dont get done with final till around 1630 so Ill be headed there afterwards. Mainly just need to adjust my front axle. I might do the rear blocks and see if we cant figure out what is making my belt squeel sometimes. I think it is the power steering because I just got back from pt and it didnt squeel at all till I tried to turn into the barracks parking lot. But main thing tonight is to shift the front axle left and install my rear blocks if thats not a problem. I dont wana be up too late cuz im meeting a guy at bearclaw at 7 tomorrow for the toys for tots run. Also dont see your address in your sig.
