    I got a Leer topper with a ladder rack and locking doors. It has a bracket bolted on that relocates your camera or unbolt it if you dont have one. Have the key to all doors. Really looking for 2nd gen tailgate and a little beer money for it. It is from a 2013 AC on Asheville area

    Anyone got any good areas around buzzards roost to camp at? Looking like three trucks one with a trailer. The rest of us will be in RTT. Mainly looking for a camping spot with a good view. Looking for Friday and Saturday I was gonna do big creek but was told it is really packed and tents only

    If y'all wanna run Hurricane Creek Rd, there's two camping spots that will fit your group. The trailer might be a challenge. The view would be of a creek though, not mountain vista. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/hurricane-creek.603300/

    There might be some camping spots in the Harmon's Den/Max Patch area, but I can't remember.

    Not sure is 105 is open back up but they have some good spots if I remember correctly. There are also some creekside spots that are fairly large of the Harmon Den Horse camp exit on I-40 just up from the hurricane creek entrance.

    I believe Pisgah is open, just have to be off the road 1000’ (I believe). Too many rules! Roseboro Rd and surrounding areas were packed a couple weeks ago..

    Just drove around Crumpler/Grassy creek area. I hope I can buy a house up around that way some day...many roads are only 4WD accessible.

    151145F2-0355-47EE-8AC7-D6F3F5890398.jpg Anybody around Hendersonville gotten a CMC done? Just got these 295/70r17s in, getting 2.5inch coils put on the 5100s next Wednesday and bought the CMC plates that Total Chaos sells. Thought about going to U-Joint OffRoad in cane creek I’m sure they’d be do some good looking welds.

    Ogre off-road does some good work. I had him install my All-Pro expo leaf springs and he had some pretty gnarly projects going on.

    If you don't mind, post back after you get it done. I may need one in the future as well and would like to know where to go if I don't try it myself.

    I’ve got some 1.5inch toytec/Eibach coil springs, a set of predator steps, stock headlights off a 2015 and some 285/70r17 Nitto Terra Grappler g2s that have a little life left in them if anyone’s interested

    I mentioned this road before, but at the end of Black Balsam Rd. off the Blue Ridge Parkway, is an old fire road. Gate should/supposed to be open as of August 15 every year, and close January 1. Only about 1 1/2 miles. Problem is it is getting overgrown with vegetation. I would love to get a group together to trim out ( if allowed by forest service). A lot of hikers though. Some think you shouldn't be able to drive it but you can. VERY, very technical! All rock and no mud. Some of the road borders the Shining Rock Wilderness area. If you've never drove it try it out. It will beat your brains out!

    Is it Black Balsam Knob Road? I believe I found it on the apple maps and the fire road loops back around onto the parkway? I may have to wait on that one to get my cab mounts chop done EDIT: I looked at it on satellite and the what I thought was a road that loops back into the parkway has got to be a walking trail do you just dead end on the trail you speak of and just turn around? I may check it out one day this week

    It does dead end. I drove my stock OffRoad around it last year. The short beds would be better than a long bed. But yes it is probably Black Balsam Knob. Weekends are very crowded at the end of the pavement.
