19th Annual Toyota Takeover at Rausch Creek Offroad Park

I need an antenna... I believe it is specific to the unit in my truck.

 

I got one with my midland. A small 6 in magnet mount. Should be good for the gmrs frs bands, but I never transmitted with it so idk. Has

$43 pl259 USA made PL-259 improved double shielded rg-58u for firestik antenna K-8A 18-foot single cb/ham coax cable

pl259 male end

 

Might fit, if it does I'll throw you some cash

 

No cash needed sir, you're saving something from ending up in my junk bin.

 

I'll have a beer(s) with your name on it!

 

Mine has about an 1/8 inch of play, so it's probably only safe for 50mi or so; between that, and the rarity of a bearing failure on the trail, probably not worth it. I always carry a spare CV shaft, those fail far more frequently.

 

Yes, if you can.

 

Now that's an offer I cannot refuse.

 

Hurry up! I rebuilt my whole 3rd to be ready for this. Ha.

What day/time are you planning to be up there Mike?

And for anyone else, I'm bringing the family this time around (new to 4wheeling) so I'll mostly likely stick to blues, and a few blacks where they can get out and watch. Anybody getting together groups yet?

 

There's a greens group for Friday, and blues/blacks Saturday. But realistically it's who has their shit together at the same time in the morning.

 

That's likely my plan too, I can't get stuck there on this trip so I won't be going full hammer.

 

No worries but it's always fun to watch you go full hammer!

 

Anyone coming from close by that can bring firewood for the TW Ghetto at the campsite?

 

@Arcticelf
I'm going to bring some, and if we can get a few others to bring some, it should be good. I understand that they do sell firewood there, but I've never bought any.

 

sub'd for pics

That was a pretty good day IIRC, glad to see you're still kicking around buddy, how's CO treating you?

 

Likewise, my friend. Glad to see you're still at it too. I learned a lot from wise old Murph in the short time we wheeled together. That was an awesome trip indeed. I have a pile of pics from that weekend. As I recall you and I were the last to leave on Sunday after flexing on that ramp. That was officially my last weekend at rausch before the move. I really want to run rausch again someday when the truck makes it back east. I want redemption on trail 13 now that my truck is a bit more built.

I absolutely love Colorado. Wheeling PA was fun, but it doesn't hold a candle to Colorado. I'm in my happy place out here. The trails, the views, and the people I've met here are absolutely amazing. I do miss wheeling with you guys though. I stalk the PA threads occasionally just to see how you all are doing.

 

Neither have I, but I like that plan.

 

Looks like a good weekend to be in PA. It will be in the Mid 90’s south.
