you could replace your shocks with air-helper shocks for selectively getting a little more clearance
ill whore myself out to sit in the back of your truck for added traction as well
For those who have gone before, how much wheeling is actually done? I need to figure out how many propane tanks I'll need. I average a tank a day, but that drops if I do alot of crawling. Looking at how long we'll be up there, I would guess three tanks would be enough, but just barely. Can you night wheel there, and does anyone ever do it if so (or is it to freakin cold)?
BTW, do you'll think it may be a good idea to rig up some kinda snorkel?
Always

night wheeling is definately a must... last year we did three stage... hopefully scott's patrol won't light wires on fire this year
P.S. Hopefully my pile doesn't do the same!

id say there is alot of wheeling done, we get up (sober up pretty early ~8-9) and hit the trails and your pretty much gone all day... i think that first friday last year it was dark by the time we got back. and then again night wheeling... some times its an hour... unless your doing snakepit after a SWFWDA meeting and your drunk and leave at 10 and roll back up to the campsite about 4:30. and yes it gets cold, ice and frost pretty much cover the vehicles when they are sitting there at night.... just bring alot of jack and you wont even feel it though
hmm, maybe I should see if I can rent a 10 gallon tank or two, or at least grab four 8 gallon tanks. They wouldn't have a place there that you could refill propane tanks, would they?
what kind of tanks do you need?

forklift propane tanks. I have an account with brazos welding supply, so I'm gonna see if they can get me some 10 gallon tanks versus the 8 gallon tanks I normally run.
It's in much better shape than before - ready to go, wire wise...night wheeling is definately a must... last year we did three stage... hopefully scott's patrol won't light wires on fire this year

The office sucks - I wanna go wheeling!
Well I'm sitting at my house back home, I came down to take care of the horses while everyone's out of town. I'm making a last push this weekend to finish up the heap before it's sent off for the cage and steering. Hopefully I'll get everything buttoned up and take it for a drive this weekend.

I agree that night wheeling is awesome but lets not get the bright idea to run snake pit at midnight.night wheeling is definately a must... last year we did three stage... hopefully scott's patrol won't light wires on fire this year
