Attica Badlands Tentative Run March 12th

Hey, a couple guys from work want to go to the Badlands either the weekend of March 5th or March 12th. Will most likely be the 12th. Anybody more than welcome to come along. "Ahem MIKE LIN"

Located in Attica, Indiana. Be a good chance for any of the new IN, OH, KY, or MO people to come.

What a coincidence! I'm down for the 12th of March for sure. My buddy Vince and his truggy (yota sas) will come out if you guys are gonna be there.


We were thinking a Cinco de Mayo (sp?) run last weekend of April and may use this as a "breakin' in the winter mods" run. Winter in Ohio is getting old!

Kick ass

And Jutty this isn't confirmed yet, cuz I might be busy that weekend. Maybe the 5th will be better. We'll have to wait and see when I get my Tundra coils on.

I can do either really, but will keep an eye on this thread for sure. Vince and I tow so we can be there with relative ease.

If it doesn't work out, keep in mind the last of April. That place is too much fun.

Of course! That's my wheeler/daily driver I just tow it to the trails. We just like to wheel so if there's a group goin' it will be a blast on all the trails.

How about on or around Cinqo? I agree though, we should plan a rock solid date for a get together.

ok guys, I'm out.

So my 4wd problem turns out to be bad bearings in my front ring and pinion. And the dealer quoted me 1076 for fixing it. Of course i'm not gonna pay that, so it'll take me some time to get it fixed by an independent shop. You guys should still go though. I'll just be 2wd for a while.

Thats a kick in the pants.

But i have to ask, is it just the carrier bearings? Or pinion? Either one wouldnt be bad to do yourself.

I'm still intrested in going. I know joez said he was going there on the 12th. Unfortunately, the 12th is not going to work for me.

How does the 5th sound to everyone else intrested?

It shouldn't be a problem here, but let me double check with the wife and my wheeling partner (not the same person )

Just FYI, the 5th is NAXJA's Winterfest, Badlands is gonna be packed with XJ's. Not a good crowd if your not in a jeep.
