fer the record Cadalic is no easy ride its gonna take some skill to drive it every year the trail gets worse due to winter runnoff so dont go alone and be careful 

[weirdtimes_7]

Oh i won't... i meet some MC peeps before we even head to the trail, and then start asking around to see if anyone really minds hauling me outta places i cant get out of... or over... or backwards...

I know it's going to be hard, i just want to get so bad, i think i would have fun no matter what i can or can't do....

Just ask FFC about that

[weirdtimes_7]

ok... my Blazer it nothing but, NOT STOCK and I had some trouble in some spots now granted it was a little big fer the trail but it made it in and out, coming out I did bend a front main spring and couldnt turn right but it eventualy flattened out and I made it home, 3 hr drive it was fun so just be careful and have fur and REMEMBER   SAFETY FIRST !!!

[weirdtimes_7]

I am prolly going to trailer it down there with my other truck, cause if it breaks, then at least i still have a ride back to utah with my broken truck...

I still have a question about the roll cage issue... some people are saying the least you need is a roof over your head. I thought you HAD TO HAVE a roll cage or roll bar... i don't have either, but i do have a roof on my truck, haha

im not sure its rewquired, i have a "stock" roll bar in the runner, but its useless.

it would certainly be a good idea to take safety steps, but to specifically answer your question, i dont think its required-again, i rolled the con in a subaru station wagon last year .....the black one in the middle

[weirdtimes_7]

ok ok... cause i wanna go, but i don't have a welder on hand, or else i would just build one myself. I don't wanna get down there and be turned away cause i have no internal or external cage...

military_stang

[*** YELLER ***]

ok hold on  you took the black one through the Con and everybody told my nephew he couldnt take his through 'cause it wouldnt make it

now I'm just confused how did you and this wouldnt




PS hey Dan 

[weirdtimes_7]

That thing is pretty sweet...

PS hey Dan 

i didnt tell him he couldnt..hell i think i was givin the thumbs while this conversation was happening

the black one had a 3 inch lift.  and a locked rear diff with lots of skidpltes

a good driver can get anythin 4wd through i had to be pulled 3 times, once at the bottom of cadillac, once where marlin sets up camp, and once at the begining of gatekeeper..it had 27 inch ats and now has alot of body damage

[weirdtimes_7]

Now knowing this info... i am pretty sure i can do it with my truck.... i just need alittle bit of lift??? i wanna put a 3 inch body lift till i do my SAS, but am i really going to need it to run MRC???

military_stang

[crawlerdan]

id stay away from the body lift man, useless unless you are trying to stuff a big ass motor in it

wheel it as is with a lincoln locker and you will be fine

and old yeller, that brat has dual cases right?? and is locked f/r? i think i remember reading that...anyway, he would walk through 99% easier then half the jeeps i see out there. no prob at all. justy make sure hes got a few key spares and a good tow rope

[weirdtimes_7]

So no need for the body lift... ok... as long as i have someone in front and back of me that doesn't mind helping, then i think i'll be set.

Hey, crawlerdan... you going this year to MRC6???

well the kid is thinking about Balzer running gear now so he just confuses me  I dont know what he is gonna do but I think he wants to go to the round up you think he would have no problem and what parts should he bring

sorry fer the hijack

My older brother had a friend in high school that did the con in a 91 S10 with bumpers, sliders , rear welded and 30 inch tires.  He got out with no body damage as well.  It can be done and you should be fine with a good tow rope and some friends.
