NE area wheeling trip plans

Looked around and haven't found a fabber that uses 1/4" for T-case skid in fact, it seems like ATO is the only one out there using 1/4" for any skid. The All Pro T-case skid is nice because it doesn't need mod to install and the cross members spread out impact forces.

 

Would be great. Shoot me a pm with a #. Maybe we can make it work soon. Thx

 

For the difference in weight I'm surprised a lot of manufacturers just don't step up to 1/4". One of these days I'll have a nice MIG setup and a plasma cutter so it won't matter anymore.

 

I might be interested. I have to check when I am off my phone to see if they would be the same

 

I'm thinking cardboard for templates since they are not as complicated as a bumper would be. No need to be the prettiest things as they are under the truck and like a sacrificial part that's gonna get beat up with time. Thoughts?

 

A heavy cardboard might work or some luan

 

I have one picture from the clean up my club had on the 20th of april Only one bag fell out

 

Tire gate came out nice Fran . Is that in Taunton ?

 

Im pretty happy with the gate, minus the added drag on the highway. Yea its in taunton we found a field off the main trail where it was used as a construction dumpsite. We think someone gutted an Rv there to. Is also a shooting range with easily 10k bullet shells lying around.

 

That much brass could be one hell of a slush fund for aftermarket goodies.

 

we filled a truck bed with mostly shells/dirt. The problem is lots of them are shotgun shells. It would take you such a long time to sift them and dump the dirt out of them. Hmm unless we get a water powered dredge like the gold digging guys

 

Hell, some 1/4" mesh on a 2x4 frame with a garden hose and you're all set.

 

Anyone wheeling this weekend ?

 

I am. Dont know where, dont know who im going with. But my truck will be in the woods. I am thinking about night wheeling on the local water company property or i might be down for a trip on sunday

 

I would like to invite any one interested in joining NTC for a meet and greet in Sturbridge MA. We will Meet:Saturday May 18 at 10;00 AM at
The Traveler Restaurant
1257 Buckley Highway, Union, CT
and wheel a local piece of private property to follow.

Wheeling will be easy to moderate. Requirements are front and rear tow points.
There is a $20 donation per rig for the land owner.

If anyone has any questions, PM me, or post them up.
I hope this gives plenty of time for anyone interested to mark thier calendar.
Post up if you plan on attending so I can get a head count.

 

Please review these documents if you plan on coming to the meet and greet.

Wow, reading their rules was fun. Just like the Army, each rule was written because some asshole did something stupid.

 

Yup, the rules were def written with a purpose.

 

Gave me the impression they've had some serious boneheads role out on the trail with them. How is NTC as a group? Looks like they've figured out how to organize.

 

I love it. They are a great group of people who are always willing to help out. I am on of the officers this year. Mach1Man, JohnnyM, 64Wildcat, Erik65, 650H1, and possibly a few others are members as well. It is a huge plus to be part of one of the local clubs if you want to get out wheeling. They have access to some very nice private property.
