Looking forward to Rigs & Coffee-WNC and the trail run today!

After the 4/18/25 meetup we will be doing a short (couple hours) run at the TN border, leaving Main Street Coffee about noon. Trail is about 8 miles, rated a 5 by onxoffroad. Good chance to get in the dirt!

Just a heads up for the monthly meetup. Yes, it's still on, I just had to delete it to get rid of all the attendees that were "Going" but were ghosts since day one. Please mark down if you are attending, but mark not attending if you're not next time. It just helps keep the attendee list realistic.

Monthly meetup in Burnsville View Rally Point

Replaced a broken yoke on the rear diff and rebuilt the ujoints.

What size charger did you use for the house batteries?

I use a redarc BCDC 50amp charger for my 200 ah lifepo4 battery. It has never caused an issue with the charging system, or the crank battery. The 50 amp may be overkill, but even from a flat battery a 4 or 5 hr trip caps it off.

Lol

Front is. I think the rears are also, but they vary from year to year as a direct bolt on.

Front-end components will swap with a same year f150. The rear end is different. You will have to be creative there.

Where is that old bridge at?

We will be skipping our December meet-up for Christmas break. Look forward to seeing everyone next year! Merry Christmas and a blessed new year.

I've never seen on mine. They are Zarges.

New build? How's that pretty shepherd doing ?

Once you turn off of hwy 19, most of the roads here could be classified as a moderate 6 to difficult. Not sure about the trails in this area, but I would try south of hwy 40. The areas here above 40 to tennessee are still in search and recovery mode.
