new england wheelin trip CHECK OUT THE PICS AND VIDS ON LAST FEW PAGES

[NEK5]

Sure we can do it earlier

How about 10:30?
Its about 40 mins to get throught the whole thing without really stopping.

that sounds perferct....does that work for you dirtyjim???

so an hour and a half to 2 hours would be perfect for the whole run with stops???do you usually stop or just go right through? i think a 5 minute stop once in a while would be cool

ill bring my digital camera if you want. its going to take me a long time to get down there. my truck is chugging when it get warmed up, plus my tires are unballanced. good thing my uncle runs a junkyard in bellingham.

Sounds awsome! I just got my brake lines today and I will install them on saturday so I can really flex the suspention that is without worring about snapping a line. As soon as I get my radiator, rain or shine I'll put it in but my leaky radiator won't stop me from wheelin on sunday.

May I make a request that we meet next to the ATM in the parking lot because on Sundays the Market Basket section of the parking lot fills up quickly with all the soccer mom minivans and SUVs.

WooT!!! I can't wait to flog the crap out of my truck.

Someone want to bring a digital video camera for some even better footage than pics?

Easy to find... follow the directions I gave you before

1-2 min clips are all you need to film someone floggin down a mud pit.

i got a hi-8 digital video camera with digital editing on my comp. maybe i can use my college degree for something after all.

Sweet! I've got to get video of me doing donuts in the sand pit

 

[Chevy305]

Ok I might have a problem with my radiator...

As you know my radiator has been leaking and now the leak got worse today to the point of spraying. So if I don't get the new radiator from LMC then I might have to take jurastic measures...

like cracking an egg in the radiator
or saudering the mo-fo till it bleeds



I'll do what ever it takes to make sure I can wheel the thing on Sunday

Hey guys we are planing a east coast get together in July 2007 at Rausch Creek Off Road Park in eastern PA. We would love to have you. Here is forum
title:

National Get together of K-5s (or EAST Coast)

They have several types of trails from mild to wild also they have primitive camping areas * no built up privy's*. Please check out the post and give any input you have. I am working on getting some companies to come also.

This is not a long trip but would be a great over nighter for you and would be a great road trip.

yeah i was there today checking it out. had to go to my uncles junk yard and took a walk around. i saw those deep water holes off that road out the back of the sand pit. looked like a pretty solid bottom.

 

[DirtyJim]

would but i dont have a way to get my truck down there.

Yeah they are pretty deep and we are expected to get 2-3 inches of rain tonight and tomorrow . Sunday will be the perfect day for wheelin!!!

EDIT: I should add that this is the hardest part of the trail. The reason I am working under my hood is because I water locked my engine by going way too fast into that water hole.
