Anyone Intrested in a run on Sunday the 28th? I was thinking squeeze or something around there! just did sycamore on last sunday and that was fun but want something a bit harder than that! I have run sqeeze twice and love it so i would be up for doing it again. I can lead sqeeze but if anyone has other ideas i would be up for anything!

[Jeep4thefun]

Would you be intrested in doing this on sat. Night.. ?
If not i might be able to go on sunday....

[Cronoh]

I'm down for a Saturday night run, but my rig (look in my sig) can only handle like 3.0, MAYBE 3.5 with many attempts and some good spotting and me not gettign nervous and being unable to control the vehicle :D

[RokNRich]

Too cold for night run, :o

I'm looking for a little shakedown run Saturday or Sunday, don't matter, just not at night, prefer FJ.

[Crawldad]

Sounds like your sporting your new Creepy's.
I might be able to get out Sat. FJ sounds good, let me know.

Holy crap, you still have your Jeep :D

I seen the other post about TM, not sure I'm up for that again, Lance is crazy and everytime I wheel with him I break something. :cool:

I was seriously thinking of doing something a bit more tame. Besides, TM adds about 3 hours to my play time and the wife is borderline psycho with all the Jeep stuff I've been doing lately.

What do you want to run ?

[TheJeepGuy]

I'm looking to get out on Sunday at FJ. I was thinking about doing H2H. Any takers?

[RokNRich]

LOL

What are you running ?

[RokNRich]

Nice. :cool: For a minute there I thought it might be a yellow Sport ;)

You available Saturday ? Just visiting ? Ran these before ?

I might just get out both days this weekend, JD's math got me thinking........

[TheJeepGuy]

Nope, no Barbie Jeep here.

I'm not available on Saturday, Sunday only. I recently moved here and now I'm in Queen Creek...nice & close to FJ. I've run quite a few trails out there, but not everything...yet ;) I've done upper woodpecker, UA, Martinez, Elvis, Box, Coke, and that's about it in FJ. I've wanted to do H2H for years now, pretty much every time I pass by it after UW. That and Xtacy are on my tick list out there.

Yeah, I hear you. I'd like to get out but don't want to break before Moab.
Something a little more tame sounds good to me. Ajax? or Whatever.
Thanks for the tip on the Bighorn lodge. We changed our reservations & saved $120.

Hey Pirate 16 Iwant to run squeeze on the 28th. I was tail gunner on the SC run last sunday. Did not get to meet you, large group. Never ran squeeze so lets go! George

[Jeep4thefun]

So Sat. or Sun. ? its getting close guys...
I want to go with but can only do sat. run at night or any time sunday...
Let me know thanks guys hope to join you all...
Thats if you all think my rig is good enough...
I did elvis... But thats not saying very much i guess... lol

[pirate16]

hey george!!! i talked to you a bit, i was the dark red jeep about 3 in front of you. yea sure lets run squeeze on sunday. and chris sure you can come squeeze is a little difficult with out at least one locker but it can be done with some spotting, 2 inches of lift might have some scrapping but i don't think there will be any damage. what time works best for you guys i can do when ever. i will be out of town till sat night so if i don't respond right away that is why. I was thinking 9 am or 10 am it worked well last weekend.

any more are welcome to come!!!

[Number 7]

9:30 at the Baja Gas (across Beeline from Casino).

See you there.

[TanTJJim]

Do you guys know if the mud pit in the middle of the trail still has water in it?

[hoffyinaz]

I'd love to go, but my exhaust is broke off right before cat and is loud...........

[Number 7]

The report I got , mud but no standing water. That was two weeks ago.

[SHNIPE]

It was full of water when we went. not sure but usually when its cooler that water doesnt disappear quickly. If its still there go around or make a run back :D Ill see if i can make cory go!

[pirate16]

9:30 sounds great!!! shnipe it would be great if you could come also.

looking at it last weekend it looks like we will have to go past the entrance because of the construction on 87 but we will just come back to it.

I have never tried the bypass of the water hole but we will see what it looks like!

[TanTJJim]

I might try to make it out there if there's room. I'm trying to convince a friend to come too. He's stock on 31's, I have taken him out there and we made it to the mud hole and turned around. If the mud hole is passable I know we could do the rest of the trail and if not we'll have to turn around but I'm familiar with the area. Do you guys mind if we come too?

[pirate16]

sure jim come on with, it should be fun.

ANYONE HERAD FROM JUNKIE???

i know he dosen't miss many squeeze runs!!

[sunroom2004]

Sounds like it won't be a problem, but I just want to confirm if my rig is up to specs for this trail.

33" BFG AT
4.56 open front / detroit rear
2.5" lift (well worn TC skid :D)
QD front sway bar

[TanTJJim]

Cool, see you guys there!

[Number 7]

You will do fine with that setup Frank. See you at 9:30

[sunroom2004]

The trail rating said: Squeeze Rock (3.5 - 4.5), but maybe that's only if you have a big mud pit.

I'd like to meet at the airdown spot...is it the same as last Sunday's Sycamore Creek run?

thanks!

[TanTJJim]

There are alot of different lines through Squeeze from mild to wild. If the mud hole is filled with water the bypass is pretty crazy. I just turn around if the mud hole is too bad. There are a couple pictures in the trails section, you should check them out. What's your setup?

The airdown spot is at the entrance to Sycamore creek not Sugarloaf mountain which was the airdown last Sunday. Sycamore is where we came out last week.

The pics are what got me interested. The trails section doesn't clarify why it's sometime 3.5 and sometimes 4.5.

I didn't want to show up "under-equipped"...especially after reading a 12 page thread on that topic....:rolleyes:

I'm setup pretty good for most 3.5 trails, but I can dig to china in deep sand. :D

[TanTJJim]

If I was paying attention I would have caught that:rolleyes: I think the 4.5 part of the rating is the bypass around the mud hole and some of the very optional lines. If the mud hole is clear you can take a stock tj through the whole trail if they're not too afraid of damage, you'll be fine. If YJunk comes out just don't take the lines he does:)

its not 3.5 some times and 4.5 others. its 3.5 AND 4.5 all the time depending on the lines you take. I could get you pretty jacked up on some lines if you wanted but most people like ot take the easy lines.

Junky is probably busy working. Hes been workin on lining up more work to pay for his pretty atlas. I think it should be broken in. Ill give him a ring.

[ohiotj]

Hey guys, this would be my first run out there and sounds like fun. Is there room for one more jeep?? Just me and this wife... maybe a dog. Thanks

[Number 7]

You are welcome to join in on the fun Ohio.

[kemolewis]

Man this will be the third squeeze run I miss but I havent got my new tires yet and just dont want to press my luck anymore than I have to. Besides I wanted to see if I could do the left line open on 33's since I couldnt do it on 31's

[Jeep4thefun]

[pirate16]

[daniel]

Why are we meeting at the gas station???????

[ohiotj]

Ryan

[TanTJJim]

I had a good time out there today guys, thanks for setting this up! I think I might have gotten a couple "are you crazy looks" but I had fun. I hope someone posts up picks of Ohiotj coming down that rock right before we left, that was bad arse!

[Jeep4thefun]

Any pics ?

[TanTJJim]

I only got 1 picture and it's such a pita to transfer them from my phone to my computer it's not worth it. I saw a bunch of other people snapping some pics though, we're waiting......:)

[daniel]

yoooooo jim thx for letting me ride with you it was noce to get out :D I got to get my jeep fix. I had a good time always good to meet new ppl

[TanTJJim]

You're welcome anytime I've got an open seat Daniel. When you get everything set up in your rig I'll have to drag you out to FJ. Always good to see some new faces too, you guys should come back out when the mudhole isn't filled with water, the rest of the trail is pretty cool too.

[Number 7]

Hey you guys, good time today. Sorry, got caught up in all the drama on the boards, will have to post up pics in the morning. . .

Mark & Jim, thanks for helping me out of the sand hole unscathed! Mark, sorry for almost getting you stuck in the top of the sand hole while getting me unstuck from the bottom of the sand hole. :eek:

Pics in the AM, promise!

[TanTJJim]

Great seeing you out there today George and Diane! Glad we got you out of that sand hole unscathed. That stuff was evil! Looking forward to the pics, I know we had a couple other shutterbugs out there, where are they at?

[GRUNT]

Pics, I need pics like a fat kid need cake! :D

[TanTJJim]

Haha, you crack me up Allen. Okay, here is the ONE picture I managed to take all day. I was all crazy like aaargh, I'm going to make it up this rock, it was so crazy you can see Daniel jumping out of the way so I don't run him over, because I don't care who's in my way:D j/k, this was as far as I was going to make it up that obstacle and I had to at least get out and take a pic.

[daniel]

Thank alot jim for putting that crap up

[TanTJJim]

[daniel]

and i look REALLY fat in that pic :(

[ohiotj]

My wife took some pics but they are not good. Plus i don't know how to post them. We had a good time. Sorry we left early but she was ready to go. Thanks for the spots. I needed a few of them bad. Only damage was a scuffed stock bumper. All in all a good day. And i got to use my powerplant for the first time to air up. Worked great. Thanks all.

[pirate16]

It was a great time!! George i was glad we were able to get you out without a scratch!! its fine that i got stuck also its always the play time when someone gets stuck, it seemed so easy but it wasnt!!! we need to set up some more runs! Ryan that was a great route that you were able to do it looked awesome!! Dan i would love to go riding with you guys once you get yours going again!!

[kemolewis]

Jim you needed to go a little more passenger on that on "jk" looks like you almost made that left line. How was the water hole?

[daniel]

so was that the right line? cuzz thats the line i took with dennisput me on1

[Number 7]

I started a new thread above with the pics I took:

[TanTJJim]

Jim you needed to go a little more passenger on that on "jk" looks like you almost made that left line. How was the water hole?

I was riding the rock face hard on the drivers side, it was definitely the right line. The problem was the rock that my passenger rear tire was on was slick and at an angle. If I went up it any further it would have slid and my passengers door would have met the rock in a bad way. If I had tires just a little bigger and some more protection on my rockers I think I'd be good. Next time....

[kemolewis]

You are correct Jim that was the right line and that is exactly what you do and then use your door as a pivot unless you can ride it even higher like John did when we went out there
