because this happened to me on the weekend i thought i would post it here so that people would know.

a hitch is not considered a proper tow point.


in order for it to be a proper tow point you need to have a reciever shackle. this is so that we can properly connect a winch cable to your hitch. like so.


these are inexpensive and can come in many different varieties.
this one from princess auto is also acceptable.


perhaps we can get a section together on proper tow points in the frequently asked questions.

i will be checking all jeeps for proper towpoints and other general issues before we head out on sat. the main thing we are concerned about is peoples saftey and we want every one to come out and have a good time. this should be a really good run and i look forward to seeing every one on the trail.

the hitch and a hitch pin is fine( Kevin and Blair )
put the loop in the hitch pin it and giver. If you need to winch off it put a tree saver in it..
Don't use the safety chain tab for recovery

ok so far it looks like we have 27 confirmed jeeps.  :o and a bunch of unconfirmed. if you dont see your name in the first post that means as far as i know you have not confirmed if you are comming.

i was out last sat and ran the trail that we are taking, it differs from the original that i had planned but due to the snow in the mountains i have had to change it up a bit.

we will be splitting up to possibly 3 groups. remeber to please payattention to the requirements.

also due to the large number of people showing interest i will be at the mclean store about 7:30 and if you can show up early to air down and get ready please do so. i would like to leave promptly at 8:30, this will be a fairly long trail run and i want to allow people the chance to get back to the city for their other engagements or the chance to do another trail.


see you all out there!
