    For sure. Hit me up with a PM whenever you feel like heading up here. I've been exploring a lot of the FRs around Sedona and many of them are excellent moderate trails with enjoyable but not damaging obstacles.

    It's nice to be able to run trails all day and be home in 20 minutes when done.

    Broken Arrow is fun but will only keep you occupied for two hours or so, and that's stopping to get out and look around at all the vistas and playing on the slickrock slabs for a while.

    I'm finding a lot of other interesting stuff just by grabbing a National Forest Motor Vehicle Use Map for Coconino/Prescott NF and heading out exploring. Already found quite a bit local that I haven't found *anything* about while googling. The locals might know about it, but I doubt the wider world does.

    Sweet ass build! I'm going to dig more once I get to my laptop. Another member sent me this link and I'm glad he did. I'm about to put on some 1st gen Tundy wheels like you had and some Toyo ATIIs in 285x75r17. My question is did you have to trim fender? Or was the CMC and pinch weld enough?

    Thanks in advance

    We live like a mile from the 172 gate.

    Yeah, life happens. I got married and bought a house and shit and theres a lot less time for fucking around on trails than there used to be.

    What brings you out to NC?

    That seems to be a familiar trend, family and other things come up and wheeling has to take a backseat to those things.

    Well shit man if you ever wanna grab a beer sometime give me a shout.

    I lived here for 25 years before going to Arizona. All I did was come home.

    I've been lurking pretty much forever, but really after a while there's only so many 'what wheels should I get' and 'why does the 3gen motor suck so much?' threads you can bother with.

    So I'm a dad now. That'll cut down on truck futzin.

    Also we grabbed the wife a new 2019 Horunner for her Baby Bus.
