Hello! I bought a 94 FZJ80 a few months ago to get offroad and do some camping / mountain biking. Advertised as "california truck, no rust, no issues", picked it up, then...
removed all the rusty parts from the truck, fixed a few small surface rust spots, rebuilt the knuckles, replaced diff fluids, fixed some electrical issues, a vacuum leak and some water leaks. So now I'm excited to get the truck out on the trails.
Other than some offroad in my buddy's CJ7 back in high school and an XJ I had for a couple years in the 90s, I haven't been anywhere more difficult than some north GA fire roads in a car. Can anyone point a new guy to some local trails to get a feel for a stock truck and some trails where I can do some camping? I'm thinking Uwharrie is probably a good start, but I don't know what trails would be good for a beginner.
Thanks!
