NE area wheeling trip plans

It was pretty challenging on a motorcycle. Miles of sugar sand, some of that sand was like 10" deep. Then coming up to where the trail would turn to water for as far as you can see. I just did my best, stood on the pegs and tried to stay out of ruts. Even then, sometimes the water would reach your knees. It's a cool area.

 

Or simply run the TNJT.

Ya definitely eventually going to 4.56 but I have the 6spd so I'm pretty sure I'll be able to limp around for a while till I can re-gear and while I'm spending money I'm gonna give my base model with some locker loving and go ARB front and rear. $$$$$$ so probably not for a while but hey it's paid off in less than a year which is wicked awesome hahaha

 

I'm in

 

That sounds awesome that's next on my list I need a dual sport I'm looking at either a KTM 500/450 exc or a Husky fe501s

 

I'll be planning ahead for regearing and a rear locker, but I also have the 6spd and she's been perfectly fine with 33's as far as power and ratios.

 

Ya mine feels pretty good to for on 33's

 

Either of those would be great bikes. I rode the BMW F650GS Twin from central PA to NJ with stock dual-sport tires, rode the sand roads of the Pine Barrens all weekend, then rode home. A lighter ds bike would be a lot more fun in that area.

 

Worth it. With 6-12 inches of snow and then more on trail day it should make for a verh interesting run.

EDIT: So long as you dont get in trouble presumably.

 

I got the Deluxe ARB recovery kit for Xmas that I want to try out if the TREDS don't work. Although I still don't have my winch wired or set up yet, but its mounted lol.

 

Nah. As long as I don't call out too often, it's fine.

 

Good then, Im pretty sure we will have a good time. Although we wont, but you could spend hours back there. The sand pit area is the funnest if you havent been yet.

 

I have no problem spending most of the day screwing around out there

 

I would stick with the 33s until you can do the regear. I have the 6 speed, 33s, and close to 700lbs in armor, there is no way I am going to a bigger tire with out regearing. You'll end up murdering that clutch.

 

Guys, a ton of TW guys from NJ and PA go to the Toyota Takeover with us the last few years. Tons of fun! Here's a thread for this years takeover

Here's the thread on it from last year

Ya I'm definitely going this year so ready to check out rausch

 

Fair enough, I hadn't accounted for the armor I plan on adding in the near future

 

Same, and I've got two of my jeep buddies who are planning on coming with me

 

I just installed a Pelfreybilt front plate bumper and winch on my truck, had 650 springs and there is defiantly some front end sag. I have 700lbs springs sitting in my garage ready to mount, hopefully Friday, and then come play on Saturday. I'll let you know the difference in height once I get the 700s mounted and installed.

 

I keep trying to get my jeep buddy to go, always has excuses why he can't.
