Badlands Park Trip

Just got back from a great weekend at the Badlands Off Road Park in Attica, IN. What an awesome place!! This place has every kind of terrain you could ever want: rocks, mud, sand, open spaces, tight trails, creeks...it had it all. I was real impressed with the runner as this was my first real test for it. However while I was fully stuffed, I would get some rubbing. What is the best way to correct this problem? Possibly a body lift? I had so much fun I think I'm going to go and spend more money on the truck What would you guys reccomend? I was thinking ARB rear locker...or front bumper w/ winch...or some sliders? I was also considering purchasing an 85 P/U w/solid axle for a trail only rig. Oh well...I highly reccomend The Badlands. Awesome place!! I'll try and attach a few pics.

Ohh man are you in trouble for not telling us you were going!!!!!!! There are quite a few guys on here that visit Attica regularly...Im sure mike and rob would have shown up.

Ohh well...get yourself a locker and some sliders. Throw on a body lift to get rid of the rub, or just pound away on your pinch welds and cut your fenders.

No doubt. I probably could have made it last weekend. The next 2 months are about booked up for me...

shoot...they were just working. It is near Lafayette. About an hour northwest of Indianapolis. It took me about 3.5 hrs from Columbus. I highly reccomend it. I am going to be back in June sometime. Some of us midwesterners should meet out there. It is awesome!!! Hopefully the pics will be back up soon. damn webshots!

you suck. HAHA Poboy is right, definitely should have told us about it. Even though I'm 5 hrs away from it right now, i'd still go if it was a big meet. We should definitely plan something. All you midwesterners should show up

i have a really strange school schedule. i alternate school and co-op job every 3 months. i go to classes in spring and fall and am working as an engineer in winters and summers. i'm nearing the end of my spring term, (school term) which i think is done on june 19th. i move home probably the next day, and then any weekend after that, all summer long, let's plan it!
