IMO I think we should take the class 6 through greenfield to rose. It comes out right across the street and its a trail not just road so its more fun. However if there are stock trucks coming I dont know if they will hit or even be able to get through the water hole during spring(unless its dryed up some by may). Im willing to try but I dont know everyones expierence and comfort level going through something like that that is filled with twice the normal amount of water. We could take the dirt bike trail around it but then we would have to cross the swamp wich not only smells but has a nice rock pile at the end which can get pretty slick when wet and not to mention we have to climb that hill.
Anyways My quick idea Class 6 to Rose, Rose to where ever provided time.

The reason I mentioned that, the only design flaw on the Zu's I have seen so far, is the alternators, they are mounted NICE AND LOW..... thus we replace them a bit... some people haev it down to an art..anyone doen an alt ona early prelude... you know what I mean..

I agree with staying off the Private Property with a large group...

Other than that, I will have to trust to ya'lls judgement, you are the loclas..not me...I dont mind bringing spares and breaking stuff...as long as I can drive back to Springfield area afterwards <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Anyway, back to work..

I'm willing to try anything, but Like Monty said, I'm running stock, besides tires, so I have clearance issues. I'll be bringing a jerry can with me so whatever distance we need to do is fine by me, hopefully I can change my 13 mpg issue...lots of issues <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

As for trail spares, right now I've only accumulated a set of tierods, since finding an Amigo being parted out around here isn't easy.

Anyways, Chase hows it looking for your homecoming? still got the same date?

I'm still praying for getting the lift soon, but its looking dimmer and dimmer everyday.

ID be very surprised if you broke anythign on these trails. You have to almost try or the part has to be in very bad shape. IVe seen a yota with 31's do most of this stuff so you should be ok however well judge that on site.

(j/k max... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />) All rigs are created equal untill altered by others <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cyclops.gif" alt="" />....

I'm not racist, I'm make-ist <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

Really though, I'm excited to see vehicles I've never seen off-road before and can't wait to see how they do. I wont be making fun of any rigs except for Fords and Max's Nissan (which did ALMOST as well as my yota over the weekend. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />) Oh, and maybe a little Sh*tsub*tchy banter (between Kyle and i of course <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />)... wow am I asking for it.

Take all opinions of Isusu's from Chase's rig, unless your looking to see what a stock Isuzu can do. haha

Well, little update, I WILL be locked adn regeared by the time I get up there... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/nana.gif" alt="" />

Nick the dates are looking good, might even be home a little early, but I wont be able to start my leave until the date previousdly noted..which gives me about a week to regear, do the top end gaskets... new bumper and winch..etc..

man oh man... what a week thats gonna be... the worst part is gonna be getting the diffs done..too bad there is no one there to pull them for me.. anyway...

So, all things being equal...I shoudl be good to go..
