Looked like a muddy mess but looked like fun
It was slick. Required 2nd efforts and picking good lines. A good training day for all.
I didn't get to say bye but to a few as I had to get on the road to home and repack and get on the road to the lake and pick up 1 if the girls from a friends family. Seems they were dining at the Ritz at Lake Oconee Reynolds Plantation so I'm not sure she was ready to go.
But had a great time with everyone.
Was great to meet some new folks.
We should do introductions before we ride as we are growing so fast and have so many new folks. We are so glad to have you new folks and I hope you all felt very welcome.

That place is really nice, especially when it dries up. After the morning sun and breeze hit the trails they were so much better. It was my first trip to Gulches and most certainly wont be my last. Was able to tackle I think it was called TnT or something like that. Every time I take a trip with you guys I am more and more amazed at what these rigs can do. I cant wait to see everyones pics from Saturday. Sadly I had to bail around 5pm due to family issues and missed the backwards night ride. :'( :'( :'( Oh well next time fo sho.
Thanks so much to all the GATR staff that set these rides up. It sure beats riding alone.
Got a few vids will have them up when I get a chance.

Saturday really started drying up after lunch

Thanks Jay and Tony for leading the way and for getting us to push ourselves on some of the black trails, which for me resulted in learning alot more about what can be done with the right equipment and a steady hand.
-
just got home so when we get a chance we will post up the pics and I think a few vids that marie got. but had a blast it was great meeting and riding with everyone. the only damage I got this time was a bent drag link and some scratches on the paint and bumper get pics so far keep them coming

I implemented a new rule when we got home. I said who ever drove the Jeep had to help clean. Man the was the fastest I ever had outside washed inside vacuumed and wiped down. Since all 4 of us drove this trip.

^^ Nice ^^
In the middle of cleaning now. Plan to upload the photos I got and post the good ones over the next day or so.

Great weekend, weather was perfect, even if it was "hoot of 2013 Friday night" (blur Wes). Great seeing everybody again and meeting all the new guys around. Ready for the next ride. Glad to be part of such a great club with so many great people.

Great pics Tony

As usual, Gulches didn't disappoint! Weather turned out fine, and the park was plenty dry given how much rain came on Thursday.
This trip became more about getting my son comfortable with being on the trails. I didn't even get to run Palmetto Crossing! But I had a blast with him and the night ride on Saturday was great.
Glad to see the group is growing. Amazing how many rigs we took on that night ride...!
-
GREAT pics we had a blast. Cant even to describe the hospitality of everyone made it a very enjoyable trip //SLAMIN//

I didn't get many pics but will get them posted tomorrow.

Here are some of the photo's I got:

My website is fighting me this evening and I don't have the patience for it, so I created a Photobucket account. Let me know if this doesn't show up for anyone else. Have some more, but any uploading of them will have to wait.
It was great to meet everyone this weekend. Thank you for Bobby for leading our group around. It was great to finally learn how the Jeep handles off road. We look forward to future rides.

Anybody do shipwreck?

Some wicked pictures there everyone! I'm glad it turned out well and no serious carnage. At least that I've heard of anyway. {cheers2} {cheers2} {cheers2} Hope to make the next one for sure.

Yep trail wasn't clear to pass so they said just go over the pipes and I toldum I would belly and it happened. Wasn't a surprise. Factory skids are the suck.
But don't mention I walked the trail to that point. :-)
And that's the only photo of me I've seen. Lol

Had a great time this weekend, met some new people, wish I could have been on the trails driving more. Thanks to Scott and AJ for helping me get the carb running and back on the trails.
I spoke to gotpropane.com this morning and will be installing a propane system within the next month. I look forward to heading back to Gulches soon!!!

Good pics Todd.. I mean Marie! You can tell when the pics were taken by how clean a rig was in the Friday pics compared to late Saturday.

Once you go propane... I'm out... the extent of my help with that is grilling burgers! </LMAO/>
It was my pleasure to help you, no rig left behind! I too will throw a big Thank You to Scott for jumping in and helping.

Thanks Matt! If planned properly, I will bring the cooker and

Wish we could have gotten you up and running better, but now you are going to be all set when you get the propane up and running.
Had a great time, it was good meeting more people and seeing those again from last month.
Since the wife wasn't there I couldn't take her pics and claim them as my own. I looked after I got home and realized I only took two pics and they were not even good ones.

Passenger side front axle leaking gear oil

Matt, you need this shirt!(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/04/10/5upyduda.jpg)

Lol!
-
Carnage... well beside busting all but 2 clips to hold on my L/F flare, I think my front axle is tweaked.... and by tweaked, I think it's bent. Not sure yet on that but need to get it on an alignment rack to check it... I think.
I had the ESP light come on after leaving Gulches. I just pulled the code and it appears it's just because my steering wheel is so far off center from the tie rod being so bent. Not a hard fix, I just need to figure out if anyone makes a high steer tie rod for the JK. It looks like there is only a D/link flip but no Tie Rod flip so I will most likely go with a RK Tie Rod.
I was thinking... what other vehicle besides a Jeep (Wrangler) can you buy, get strangers waving at you as soon as you drive off the car lot, wheel it for days and drive it back home and still get 17+ mpg. Man I love my Jeep!

Couldnt put it better myself. I had a little bit of carnage as well. Pulled a little rod out of the firewall attached to my clutch. Easy trail fix was to put a "limiter strap" on it so it cant pull out of the firewall again. Thought about replacing it when I got back but under further observation its fine just broke the silly plastic piece holding it on the firewall. Silly jeep engineers.
Dave & Kelly where is the video of me on TnT ive been dieing to see it. And thanks for watching Gibson while I was on the obstacle.

100% agreed! 12-14 is my average for our trips @ 70 mph.
AJ, what did you hit?
-
I guess I hit a big rock. But this wasn't just one hit, my tie rod has been in sad shape for some time.
Here is my hwy avg... It does drop to 16.5 when I get over 75-80.

do the JKs come with the same hollow tie rod the TJs came with? I have 500$ waiting on mine to bend so I can get a new setup. I have seen doug, tony and a few others with the aluminum one...i think i heard them say it will bend to a point...i wish they made one like that for the TJ.

I was close to that when I pulled off the lot with a stock JKU last October. With the lift, 35-inch tires, heavier bumpers, and winch, I'm now getting about 14-15 highway, but averaging 13.5 city/highway combination.

You can get the one off a grand cherokee (I will double check this) and it is a direct bolt up. It is a solid tie rod. Suppose to be a very good upgrade for a fairly cheap price. I will get more info for you though.

It has to be a V8 Grand Cherokee for the solid
bar tie rod........I think around a 96 model.

AJ, It is hard top beat the RK Tie Rod. Solid Aluminum and will flat out take a beating. Mine has flexed all the way to the pumpkin on more than one occasion and it pops right back with no permanent bend. There are a number of others that are Chromoly; synergy and currie. But I am completely satisfied with my RK.
No true high steer conversion for the JK until you go with a totally different axle. The high steer that most talk about is the drag link flip.
-
I sleeved my TJ tierod along time ago and have smacked it on everything (shown by the many scars, scratches and coats of paint). Its still very straight. I have given away all of my spare tie rods and sold a HD Rugged Ridge tie rod (back up spare for my sleeved tie rod) to someone on a ride. This did not cost me anything but time. I would like to flip it soon, but I dont see replacing it anytime soon.

Computers lie. What's the hand calculated mileage? Did you change the computer set up for tire size and if you did a regear? Otherwise the computer won't be right.

Always got to be a naysayer in the crowd.... Lets take them one by one
Computers lie. - since your reading this on a computer... it's a lie
What's the hand calculated mileage? 16.5 - 16.9 combined city/hwy
Did you change the computer set up for tire size and if you did a regear? Yes, Superchip adjustment for tires (still has me 5mph fast, speedo 70 = moving 65). Did not regear still running factory 4.10
Otherwise the computer won't be right. - Slightly off but not 7 mpg

Thanks Tony! I already did the d/link flip so going with the RK Tie Rod sounds like the best option since Chromoly will bend and the RK springs back. I just wasn't sure if there was an option to raise the Tie Rod, I didn't find anything on that unless you have different knuckles.

What a great ride everyone! Truly enjoyed it and can't wait to get back. See you at Beasley Knob.
Thomas, Sorry about the delay with the video, I need to get the video off of daves phone and onto my mac. I will try to get that rolling tonight. I swear I won't forget! I am not sure how to load it on here but I will work on it for sure.

That was a crazy fun obstacle. Honestly every time I go out and try something harder it amazes me what these vehicles can do. Did anyone take some photos of us going up I think it was Radical Ravine the one beside Shipwreck when Ben went to check it out and we kept on straight, after lunch on saturday? I had my doubts about making it up without pulling line but I guess I will no longer be doubting myself or my rigs capabilities after this trip.

Alright, finally got all of my pics uploaded. Couldn't find a pic sharing website that would handle the enormous amoutn of pics I have, without having to pay for it. So here it is.
There are over 600 shots in total. These are action stills, so if they look like the same shot over and over, they are not. Let me know if you can't access them. I also posted a link to them in GATR Facebook page.

Is the stabilization all done by the camera or is there a gravity mount?
Actually most of the stabilization is done by YouTube. It was pretty shaky before the auto stabilize mode "fixed" it. All of my shots are with a Gopro. I have started using a monopod and extending the camera out over the trail in some shots. Part two will have a few more of this type of shot.
