I didn't even think of that, I will see if I can figure out how to do that. I am new to this forum.

None of the trails are difficult, aside from little Daniel on dickey bell and Daniel trail being what I would consider moderately difficult. Lots of water breaks though, so it might be interesting in a rig as long as yours...

Made it down to Richland road today. It was a spur of the moment, can't do what I had planned today so let's go for a drive thing. It was a little more difficult than I remembered , but fun in a stock truck. This video was the first section , where the road goes into the creek and this is the...

Thank you! Hope to have it finished up in a few weeks!!

Got the new wheels and tires finally mounted up. Ended up going with 31 mud tires. Next up is the lock n roll hitch.....

Unibody vehicles like xj, zj, and wjs will work off road, but using unibody bracing is a very good idea in the long run. When used hard the unibody over time will become tweaked, happened to the old xj I had years ago...

Awesome! Unfortunately that is the only weekend in April we can make it.

I am planning on camping on the trail, not sure exactly where yet. People could meet up for a trail ride if they camp different places.

Welcome! Live right down the road from linville. I have spent many nights in the gorge and in Wilson's creek. Let me know if you would like to see some of the milder wheeling spots in this area, I am always down for a ride. I am planning a trip to uwharrie the second weekend of april, not sure...

A full size should have a dana 44 front center section and 8.8 rear end. Both should be strong enough to handle a locker and 33s. The big difference between a lunch box locker and full case locker or Lsd is that the ring and pinion will have to be reset with the full case diffs. If you have...

Is it a full size Bronco or a Bronco II ? And I guess your choices really come down to budget. The labor to have someone install a full case locker isn't cheap, that is assuming you aren't regearing at the same time and that you aren't able to set up the ring and pinion yourself.

I guess I will add a few bits of my limited knowledge ..... Technically the front and rear ring and pinion gears do not have to be the same. An example is my jeep from the factory came with 4.11 ratio in the front and 4.10 in the rear. To awnser you second question, a front locker helps in...

If it was me, I would sell the truck and rav4 and buy a different vehicle that could replace both . Maybe a larger truck based suv with more aftermarket support, and the ability to handle more terrain if you ever get to that point. A small utility trailer means you could haul stuff without...

Hello. I am right up the hill from you in boone. Nice disco and bike!

Looks like lots of fun. Definitely want to run that trail. Glad everyone had fun!!

Thanks! Lots more to do still . Hope to get the tires mounted on the new wheels this weekend and figure out which lock n roll hitch I need.

Thanks! It will end up on 31" bfg a/s, just used that wheel in the picture to figure backspacing for new wheels.

Wilson creek is a must see in this area, pick up a map at the mast store in valle cruicis, or boone. Very nice area. And if you need recommendations on places to camp and see stuff in this area let me know. I have spent roughly 300 nights in the area.

So, I have been planing a uwharrie trip for this spring, and it looks like the weekend I will be free is april 7th and 8th. Not ideal, as I am sure it will be crowded, but it is what it is. We plan to head down Friday afternoon, and leave Sunday afternoon . Anyone down for some trail ridding...

I have never been, planned on going if I have my heep fixed in time. I did meet several people at the flats open ride this past fall who had been. They said that park is similar to the flats, mostly geared toward large tire buggies. The flats was a fun ride, and I imagine the shop would be also.
