But if you're wheelin with a club whose rigs are all mashed to hell, chances are you might be in for a setup. Knowing your enemies is half the battle.

Don't get pressured or taunted to do anything you're not comfortable with.



I wheel with all sorts of modded rigs just to keep my senses sharp. They're a rough but good bunch of peeps. And we love great mountain views.

it's an east coast trail (im in Maryland)
it's prolly gonna be somewhere in Va or Pa
A friend of mine runs her jeep with them all the time and it's stock except for tires. she just put graphics on the side so im fairly confident that rubs and scrapes should be at a minimum.

I doubt seriously that i'll need to adjust tire pressure, although it would be nice to "pop the collar" and let some air out knowing i can air myself along the way (she allways gripes that she needs to find someone with an air tank)
as i said...the is a first for me< if i remember correctly their next run is in december so snow....mixed with a lil mud....mixed with a few logs....mixed with rocks. I have my hands full

Snow runs are so much fun but in some cases, more difficult. Depending on the trail rating, it's almost imposible to pic the right line on the first try being the snow covers everything. I'm going on a snow run up to Whistler in two weeks. Nothing technical, mostly logging roads and pure white scenery.

Good luck and be careful. Don't forget your emergency gear.

You should have no problem following a stock jeep no matter what tires they put on(unless you are talking about a rubi with an experience driver). You will have to take different lines than them but your truck handles side slopes like a champ. BTM is your friend and will allow you to tackle obstacles much smoother.

Great input there Hoss. I've edited the link for you.


Here's the info you needed ECHO ECHO ECHO ECHO.....

Be sure to know how the different 4wd buttons work and how to BTM.

Have fun.

ALWAYS air down for off-road.
