Hollister Hills July 4th - VIDEO IS UP!

MiniSimp · June 20, 2006, 01:12:05 PM

Anybody up for it?
I'd like to test out my truck (except tank trap).

8Snaces · June 20, 2006, 03:47:52 PM

I would love to go! How many rigs do u have that can go? Tank trap should be dry that weekend. There is only 1 real wall u have to deal with in No Mans Land. If thats the truck ur gonna run (in ur profile pic) u should have no problems. I will spot u if u want. I will spread the word to my buddies and see how many yotas i can get out there.

MiniSimp · June 20, 2006, 03:53:27 PM

So far it's me, myself, and I.
I don't think I'll be able to do tank trap, but if you've done it, you can probably tell me.
Keep in mind, I've only got worn out 35's.

8Snaces · June 20, 2006, 04:02:06 PM

I havent driven it.. but i have spotted many rigs thru there... like i said.. there is only the one spot u have to worry about. what r ur gears? are u locked or open?

*FFC* · June 20, 2006, 04:10:24 PM

Kyle, you can do it on 35's... and you gotta be locked

MiniSimp · June 20, 2006, 04:28:24 PM

Locked F/R dual 2.28 and 4.10's.

Wermz84 · June 20, 2006, 04:28:37 PM

I'm down...

It will be a blast. I work monday and wednesday, so a full packed day on the 4th of wheeling will be sweet..

MiniSimp · June 20, 2006, 04:31:44 PM

You know I can't make it, My diffs are locked Open!!

good idea starting a thread. wasnt sure if youd see my question in the shout box, and I didn't want to pollute your thread anymore..

MiniSimp · June 20, 2006, 05:07:57 PM

This was Tank Trap 2 weeks ago, I really don't want to end up like this.
What about Jungle over by Sycamore camp to start with?

toyotajoe · June 20, 2006, 05:10:47 PM

Mini that was a fun recovery. It took us 2 1/2 hours to get him out of the way and then 3 or so hours to get him back to camp. Joe

Wermz84 · June 20, 2006, 05:12:50 PM

how'd he do that? that's a nice pic.

Yeah, exactly! That is what I don't want!

Wermz84 · June 20, 2006, 06:38:37 PM

OK, I wanna come for the fun and to learn more..

So what time are we talking about? Early?

MiniSimp · June 20, 2006, 07:00:12 PM

9ish

desertboy · June 20, 2006, 09:42:59 PM

i may be down have to see thoug, if so i'll do tank trap with you no winch here but 37's locked front and rear and have a strap. If it's dry i'm down for it, my rig is my home downpayment so i want to use it before i lose it. i;ll let you know as it becomes closer

MiniSimp · June 20, 2006, 09:45:51 PM

Yeah, I'll walk it first since TTC just happened. All 7 pits might be full.

*FFC* · June 20, 2006, 11:31:21 PM

I would so be there, but I already made plans for the American River

The only pit I was not wanting to go in last weekend was the 7th hole. But other than that we walked all of it on sunday. Winched twice from taking a dumb line and was on my side. Later Joe

8Snaces · June 21, 2006, 03:00:45 PM

TTC..thats rite. I forgot about that. U should be pretty good. If u can get one or 2 rigs in front of you, u should be ok to roll thru it. We have done an 8 man winch team b4... take8 guys, they get on 1 end of the strap.... the other end on the front of the rig..... 1,..2...4 and away u go! Jungle would be a fairly easy one for u on 35's lok'd f/r. As long as u dont care about ur driver side.. u will be fine... u almost have to drop in hard driver side to get thru one of the early parts of it.. unless u can get a tire WAAYY up on the wall. U CAN DO IT!!! Its a toyota! HAHA!

8Snaces · June 21, 2006, 03:02:17 PM

I will be there for sure!! I will get a group of my buddies together and well have some crazy fun!

MiniSimp · June 21, 2006, 03:08:17 PM

Jungle sounds cool

Wermz84 · June 21, 2006, 03:13:48 PM

You can do jungle fer sure, just watch out for that Poison Oak!!! It's terrrible in Jungle. When I was out there in May you couldn't walk on the side of the trail it was so overgrown.

MiniSimp · June 30, 2006, 08:15:55 AM

I should be there around 9am.
Look for a beat up chevy towing my junk to the Day Use area.

8Snaces · June 30, 2006, 02:14:12 PM

Ok. I'll head down on sat for a lil while... i will be driving a red s-10 with a 10foot CB whip and a ton of stickers on the back window. A day trip i can do.. sunday im goin to go pick up my new truck......

Wermz84 · July 03, 2006, 08:20:03 AM

$I\'m Down$ Doesn't look Like I'm going to be able to make it! My truck just started making a horrible ticking, clicking noise under acceleration. Not the timing, Going to check the valves tonight (Just checked them 2months ago as part of maintenance), I fear it is the timing chain guide.

It's loud and comming from the front of the engine. So if this is the case I'll be working on it instead of Wheeling with you guys, sorry.

8Snaces · July 03, 2006, 01:25:47 PM

Hey mini.. did u go on sat? Or just goin on tues?? Lemme know.. i picked up my 84 and started tearin into .... needs a lil lovin... mostly just a motor though...

Wermz84 · July 03, 2006, 02:13:13 PM

MiniSimp · July 03, 2006, 03:17:24 PM
