Uwharrie National Forest " URE " permanent thread

No clue, haven't been.

 

I can attest, some of them mountain girls are nice!

 

So $30 a yr plus $10 everytime you ride. Or $35 for URE and no more charges after that. Plus I don't see much about the size other than only 7 miles of trails. FB only allows members to view stuff. Seems a little posh and probably the size of the flatts.

 

May be good for a shakedown run place for me.

I'll drop the posh level a few % points when I'm there

 

I just watched some videos and it didn't seem all too technical just lots of hill climbs mostly and not much of anything else.

 

I know my girl is getting the itch big time already. I keep reminding her that she needs her shocks rebuilt and other items. Hast even made the calls yet. I've been looking for a 1st gen 4wd so I can have some fun too (other than sitting/drinking "water" in passenger seat) cuz I'm not taking my semi-stock 2015 on the harder stuff.

Opening day is coming faster than I thought though

 

I posted in the local forum earlier but figured I'd try here as well

Copy and paste

So I'm putting this out here.

Burlington NC

GF needs these coilovers rebuilt. As you can see they've been through hell! Her friend/mechanic that has the right tools is slacking for months now. trying to get her vehicle ready for URE.
Can anyone recommend a shop to rebuild these beasts?


Edit- I also can't seem to find and part/serial numbers otherwise I would have already ordered new seals. Any guesses to where they are hidden? Maybe I should reach out to fox

 

ask the local Jeep club? Aren’t Jeep people good about giving each other a hand? Or maybe it was just handys...

 

I would also think jeep people are good at helping other jeep people hell they all wave at each other! She says most jeep people don't have coil overs, jk, and snotty (my words, hers were better put but not good for younger/other ears lol). I guess she knows a place/people in Charlotte that can make it happen but said Jeep has to be trailered then left there for work and trailered back. She understands she is kind of being lazy about it.

I'm going to contact fox I guess and try to figure out what seals , gaskets, bushings we need. I can't find any P/N or anything.

Her jeep is heavily modified in my book. Alot of it is modded with Ford parts. Front axle (44). Rear is a Ford 60 with a mustang 5.0 engine.

I guess jeep people are nice to your face but can't help when needed. I've done as much as I can maintaince wise

It seems like Toyota people help out a bit more but I wouldn't know cuz I'm not on jeep forums.

 

You could also try to contact Accutune or Filthy Motorsports...they deal with stuff like that. You’d probably get a better idea on what you need by speaking with them instead of Fox directly.

I wish I could help more, I’m basically useless at anything other than heckling from a distance

 

I think FOA is icon not sure

 

Hahaha
Thanks for that! My brain saw FO but never saw the last letter . I saw FO and mind said they are FOX's. I just know I don't have the experience or tools to rebuild these for sure.
Headed in the right direction at least now.

Good headsup!

 

Barnes 4x4 is just south of asheville, maybe they would do it?

 

I would go directly to them for the rebuild stuff.

What shock company was it that turned into or got swallowed by icon then

 

I think icon used to be the private label brand for toytech but I think it’s Radflo who makes their stuff now IIRC

 

Icons are such junk. Can’t believe people actually pay for that crap.

 

That's not who I'm thinking of there was an actual shock company other than some relabeling.

 

ADS is where its at

 

I beleive @SearArtist had a set of ADS's
