Would love to go but, I am still a realtive newbie with just a stock rubicon. So, don't want to keep you guys with the experience and bigger rigs from going out and having fun.

But, as Jamal suggests above if you tame it down a little to get more people like me I would be in.

Thanks,

Jeff

So what's the consensus. I am up for a challenging trail but something I can do on 32" MTs and some experience

I'm in for the run.

Either one's fine for me. I'm putting my hardtop on tomorrow so mine doesn't end like Jamals.

Going to be exploring some new(to me) trails, maybe run northside top of the world, If you do decide to come out and have 32" tires driver skill will be necessary. So yes it open to experienced drivers with 32" or larger MT tires.

I'll probably be posting to go out next weekend and run fish east, Anyone who is interested PM me. I have no one confirmed yet so let me know if you want to!

So lets make it 9:30 am at the store

Usual requirements- No broke arse Jeeps or Durangos, Tow points, spare, and MT tires.

So was that a personal shot because I bought Toyos.  ;D I guess Colin and I will have to show you that they truly are the best tires since you refused to say it on camera  ;)

John, you do realise that MT stands for Mud Terrain. The full name for Toyo's are Toyo MT's...

Well, I have completed 10 runs now. So, I guess that means I have some experience/skill :-\

So, I guess I will come out and see if I can destroy my stock 2007 Wrangler Rubicon. Besides, who wants to live forever anyway? ;)

Hopefully, you guys will be available to give me advice and get me unstuck if necessary. It has been my experience that you guys are aways available for this. :)

See you all Saturday at 9:30am at the store...

Jeff

Cool I thought they came with 31's. Will I need more then a full tank, or bring a Jerry?

So I have to bow out of this one as I went to get an alignment today after the new shoes and it looks like the old girl needs to go to the doctor first.  I don't think a thrashing in the trails is a good idea with a weak front end. Have fun and be safe!
