Robb, any ideas on the trails? Will a stock 40 with 31s and a lockright or a 2.5" OME 60 open at both ends pass?

,

as long as its dry i would say either one if we get any rain the trail will change alot so then the locker its a pretty easy trail most of the way , im thinking maybe we should shoot for next weekend the 8th or the weekend after that the 15th im open what do you guys wanna do as after that looks like the next availabe weekend for me will be in Oct , with the tillamook run the 29th how many are going to go to that ?????????? and im going camping with my daughters 5 grade class from the 26th thru the 28th , its going to be a busy month let me know , TIA

I'm heading to Cruizin' the Woods too.

I don't know if I can make either but the 15th might work better for most as it gives everyone more planning time...

What is the difficulty of this trail? I have never wheeled the 80 before and it is bone stock.

Currently the tires are the stock Michelin's and IMO not really what I would call off-road capable. I will be getting new tires (285/75/16) in the very near future.

Tahuya may be the best place to try out your stock 80. Victor drove it without any trouble earlier this year. I will let Robb coment on using it at Naches.

OlympiaFJ60 · 08-31-07, 10:33 PM

Oh yeah, Ben did to, with mud flaps and running boards. No problems.

If you don't mind body damage take the 80 no problem. You will get some tree and root rash regardless.

The Seattle crew is doing the naches trail the first weekend in October. You guys are more than welcome to come. Let me know if you are interested

Oct 6th and 7th

Its a fairly easy trail and the one of the hardest parts is the 1st part of the trail but there is a bypass around that , i would hate to say bring it and then have something happen , as always it is up to the driver the trail is pretty mild , i joked once when on the trail with some jeep guys that my wifes stock volvo Sw could make it ,if we have a good turn out there maybe mt seats you could always park and ride with some one , do we want to do the 15th or should we put off until the 1st part of next month since we have the tillamook run this month , let me know have lots of things going on this month TIA

This sounds like lots of fun , what do you guys thinks should we wait until the 1st part of OCT and run with the big dogs

OlympiaFJ60 · 09-05-07, 10:00 PM

That could make a good outing, at least for one day of it. I don't know that I am going to have any more two day outings for the rest of the year. That would give me a little more time to get the exhaust manifold gasket fixed on the 40 and maybe a little rust repair/reinforcement.

bull · 09-07-07, 03:26 PM

Hey guys. We will be doing the run

October 5th 6th and 7th

Spending nights on the 5th and 6th...returning on the 7th. It is a really good time and hope you can all attend. There will be open seats too if you want to ride along
