Myself and a couple of other guys are heading down Thursday...FYI. I may camp at Byrds or maybe down the road at Redding campgrounds. More than likely we'll be at Byrds.

I just wanted to mention to everyone that I, in no way shape or form, want to lead all the trail rides. I honestly have only been on a couple trails through the Nat'l Forest. Most of what I've done is across from Byrds. So if any one wants to lead a trail for the day or even just for a couple of hours I fully invite you to. I really just started this thing up to spend a little time in the Jeep with my son. So the more time we spend shiny side up the better

Guys, if anyone has a chain saw or other tools needed for tree removal please bring them. I've been told by members of Rockcrawlers4x4 that there are some trees blocking quite a few of the trails. We may need to cut those out in order to pass.

Thanks,
Brad

We can all meet up at 09:00 at the main pavilion around the bathrooms I guess or maybe out in the field. The rockcrawlers group will be lining up in the field by the entrance. I believe they will have quite a few running that day also.

I won't be arriving until Friday afternoon. I hurt my back Monday at a working structure fire in Bentonville. I have a follow-up doctor's visit Friday morning in Lowell. I plan on heading out right after that.

Here's a pic of my Jeep if you want to find me:

Well I have my rear 3rd that I'll be installing tomorrow and I ordered a front 3rd that should be here Friday. If I have time I'll weld up the sliders and diff armor but I need brakes first. If I can get 3rds installed and brakes that work by Friday afternoon I'll try and come down and have some fun. Oh and I moved my axle forward 2" or so and decided I'm not lifting it other than a little shackle action.

Well guys I put my gears and locker in the rear axle tonight. My 4.88 front 3rd was scheduled to be here Friday but I just got a call (while I was installing my rear 3rd member) from the company I ordered my front 3rd from and they said they were sorry but my order got screwed up and won't be here until tuesday.

Anyone know if I could wheel with 4.88's in the rear and 4.10's (or whatever is stock gearing) in the front?

Put 31"s on the front... that would bring the aspect ratio back together. keep the 37s where ever you have the 4.88 and 31s with the 4.10.

What Cory said. Even off road at 10% mismatch is noticeable, I think 19% would be too much. I had to run a 11% mismatch is some deep snow last winter for short distances, and it worked OK, but I wouldn't try it on dirt/rocks.
