Ill Try and Make it out. Nice Meeting you At Max's

Updates from the adventures of Will. Last we left off, I had just finished the hammock setup and had discovered the flaw that thin wall tubing didn't have the shear strength I needed. So, I have since redone the mounts to use 1" square hitch matierial and started with a rear 2" hitch for...

Great to hear guys, and Its stock vehicle friendly, so you all will have a great time out there. We are doing a trip to potts mountain Sept 8th. If anyone is interested. Its a little harder of a trail. But I'll be taking my sidekick

Big Dogs is A LOT OF FUN, but its more of a huge drinking party. I'll only go back if I had another buggy. There aren't as many fun ride around trails when all the hardcore buggy guys are trying to have fun and get their broken rigs out.

I recommend Switzer lake to Flagpole knob as the easier trail out of the bunch. But still a hike from Morgan town.

Hi all,. Sorry I missed the last Meetup, had some previous stuff planned. Anyways, I'm hosting 2 clubs for a camping trip to potts mountain Sept 8th. If anyone is interested please let me know. Also, Scott at dinoot is a heck of a stand up guy.

Well, I learned so much after camping out in thw hammock last weekend. First of which, the hammock mounts in round tube are not the right thing. I'll have to cut the ends off and weld some square tubing in there. Second is that I needed additional ground supports. The cars spare jack worked...

Well, I finally got a vehical with a hammock side mount. And it holds all of little old me

More goodies from sidetracked off-road!! I'm a big fan of overkill for lights, but trying to keep it light (pun intended), I'll be doing a lot of dual purpose stuff. These LEDs are clear white, and Amber orange. The whites will help with deer sighting, and the Amber's really help in fog...

Well the post man came today, but forgot a few packages.... So I'll be waiting til Sunday to put some stuff on. New vent visors, and the most important mod every vehical needs....

I'll be going to Overland East too. I was thinking that or go down early and have a night and day wheel Uwharrie, too. Good luck with this months meetup.

No work on the Sidekick this week. I just ordered some more stuff for it this week. But in substitute, here are some pics of a scout I did a roll cage in.

Just from experience. Great for Wheeling, Not great wtih Johnny Law in certain states. But, you can do it! I just want a 12 valve Cummins powered 5 speed swapped Grand Wagoneer with wood paneling, 1 ton axle swapped, Atlas Transfer case and 35's.

I have 3 sets of tires and rims. 1 set of big mud tires, 1 set of stock AT's (on the dd now), and 1 set for snow. Yes, I still have more tires, But those are for other projects. Yes, I know have a problem.

It all depends on how hard of terrain you want to go over. I like the idea of finding weak links closer to home, but you will never know at what moment something will break on the vehicle. I'm doing up a sidekick now. Winch and bumper where the first things, Then its rock sliders to keep...

Every few years, of Going to a free campground in NC, we would find people similar to this. Most of the times they would have a 93 Buick LeSable and/or a Ford Ranger, 8-15 kids, and always would walk through the campground asked for plates and silverware for their kids. More than once I...

Didnt get to much done because I slept in, but I and decided to finally put together my new awning. No, it's not one of the cool wrap around ones, but it only cost me $30. And I don't have to put it back if I'm staying at the same campsite for a few days. So I pulled it out of its plastic...

Very nice. I do like tacos. Eventually, I'll be building a 4 door verison, with a Toyota SAS, but that is a few years down the road.

Good looking tracker!! They did tend to have funny colors on these things. Have you added any lockers on yours yet? My personal favorite is the Suzuki Purple.

Time to start back on the front bumper, I'd like to thank Warn Industries for thier support in this build. I hadn't expected for them to step up like they did, so again huge shout out to them. A brand new Warn VR-8 winch showed up at my door this afternoon, and with tomorrow off, so tomorrow...
