Official Tennessee Thread

Aop works for me.

 

Much appreciation for considering Black Mountain date in planning. I'd like to see as many as possible make it there this year. Invite is open to all in this thread too.

 

Just a different motor....

 

Suggestions on brakes? Looking to do mine when I'm back in TN with my tools the week of the 4th. Creeping up on 75k and starting to get some squealing here and there. Wanting to upgrade pads and rotors and toss some new shoes in the rear.

 

I recently did full EBC Yellow. A quick stomp of the pedal will put you on the hood! Excellent stopping power. No fade when they get heated up. I do get a good bit of brake dust on front wheels. About 7500 miles so far. Cant say just uet how long they'll last. Pleased so far. I'm NOT a big fan of Auto Zone but got best price there using a discount card

 

I'm using the EDC Green pads with their slotted rotors. Stopping power is great, though the pads don't last as long as the OEM replacements.

This is the kit I ordered from Amazon. The picture shows red pads, but mine came with green.

I’m a fan of OEM any chance I get. I’ve had no luck with aftermarket rotors not warping on anything I own.

 

New to the thread. Where does everyone go to do light wheeling in the area?

 

Land between the lakes

 

Welcome, Land between the Lakes is pretty close to Ft Campbell. Lots and lots of mud, and there is a pretty good offroad park called Turkey Bay within LBL. I would not recommend going out by yourself, a lot of fun can be had out there. We have an annual meet out there every spring.

 

Yeah I’ve been wanting to go check out turkey bay. Not looking for anything too wild, just looking to have some fun.

 

Anyone need a good beater trial rig?

If you want company let me know , I'm only two hours away and enjoy the area at least once a month

 

I'm in on this

 

Rained on us every day this past weekend. we ended up doing railbed, lower damnation, hells revenge, fish bone (going down), and a few other class 4 trails. Had to winch on railbed and damnation.

 

1st and 2nd trips I made to Harlan were drier'n talcum powder on a saltine cracker. I cleaned up my truck with a leaf blower on #1. Last October was a washout.

I'm hoping for middle ground this fall.....

 

I'd also be down.

 

Just don’t wreck on the main road...

 

Unless your pads are thin enough to need to replace, just a good cleaning and fresh brake grease and fluid made mine feel a world better. Remove the pressed in baked in mud.

 

Sounds like a plan!
