Nice thanks @fourtrax !

Hey @fourtrax is FS 576 the stretch you were talking about with some sites along the side?

Thanks for the insight... I gotta find that Forest Road on the map. I know Pisgah has a bunch of service road camp sites, but I don't feel like wandering around looking for them when I get there. Do you know if ALL/most of the service roads have random campsites? Or is it just that one...

Looking for any recommended camp spots on forest service roads in Uwharrie. I'll be passing through for my first time on Friday night, regular camp sites are booked up, and I don't mind primitive. I just don't know my way around. I think OHV are closed still, but Forest Service roads are...

Proof that the white 55 from North Carolina (me) made it from the Atlantic 900 miles to the gathering - I'm still only half way back today. Sorry to have missed the photo lineups and trail drive - wasn’t in the cards for me. I count myself lucky enough to have made the journey without incident...

Made it to Bowling Green for the night. 10mpg going through the mountains. Oooof. One more leg to go.

Jeez - scrapdaddy - I didn't know we were talking about such classy workmanship :cool:. I did all of my work with an angle grinder and cutoff wheel dreaming of a podium. Is there a Sport class I could enter instead?

Finally on the move! Spartan locker in, dashboard done. Leg 1 of 2 complete. Made it from the coast to Asheville. Looking forward to meeting everyone.

So I can think of no better symbol of a man's commitment to an idea than to buy a t-shirt. I bought 2 of those pig shirts. And a Spartan auto-locker for the back. Fortune favors the bold. Somebody bring some extra tow straps. Hope to see you all there :)

72 FJ55 - my old 6 spline Warn hubs are seized methinks. Allen heads seized - can't open either... already ripped the head off of one allen. Anybody got a working pair of Asins or Warns?

HAHHAHAHA... dont think I wasn't already thinking about that Kleatus. Throw it in the back and see what happens when a couple cases of beer appear.

Hello all - just discovered this event - looks awesome - never done a group thing before...what's the attendance like? What kind of trails are you looking at? I am running 2WD ( lost my front diff this summer ) and a very saggy set of leaf springs :( - dont know if I can get a new diff in...

The starter I have now is a GRS from an old FJ60. I seem to recall seeing it at 200rpm+ when cranking in the past, but never locked it in to the memory banks. I was thinking it could have just started slowing down over time until it wouldn't go, and I don't think I have a good enough ear to...

I'm trying to diagnose a no start. Battery is fresh, grounds are good. About to check fuel and spark - but just noticed its only cranking at 150rpm with a full charge. ( and I've googled it to death, but I can't seem to find much data on this ). Can anyone tell me how fast a 2F needs to...
