I am planning on this trip, never been to Windrock but have heard good things, looking forward to seeing a new park.

I would like to go in on a cabin, they hold 4 so I need three more to fill one up.  Anyone interested.  I am flexible as far as staying Friday and Saturday night or just Saturday night.

Ok the cabins in the park are all booked up. I have been searching around all day and the best thing I am finding is the Comfort INN   1-865-481-8200 which is about a 15 minute drive to the park. They do offer a free breakfast. They offer  a discount if you mention Windrock/Coal Creek. I am also working with the managment and trying to get a GATR group discount. So far prices are $70 night for a room with 2 queens or 1 King..Please post up if your going and want to stay in a hotel or Tent Camping. There are plenty of tent sites and RV sites open.

Don't think we'll be making this one.  :fu(
Dawn's gona be in Washington that week, so most of our play $ is going to that. Even if I were able to go, I'd only be able to do Sat to Sun. and it'd be next to impossible to get approval from my unit to go such a distance because of my on going mission.

There is always at least some slight chance though. But I'm not betting on it.

I'll be taking the jeep to Allsouth Tuesday and let Danny hook a brotha up installing the kit. It's only a 3.25" that I swapped with, but I'm putting on better control arms all around and I'll be putting on that duel steering stabe as well, so should prove to be a MAJOR improvement overall. I'll take before and after pics and be sure to post when done.

Not sure I will make this ride.  Turns out I busted my new alternator this past weekend, as right front tire when stuffed pushes the coilover into the alt. case, which broke and shorted.  The only solution appears to be moving the top of the shock mounts outbound an inch or so.  I was planning to replace the front shocks in any case, but this is "irritating", esp. as the interference didn't show up when flex testing after the engine swap.  Can't move the mounts until the new shocks arrive.  I'll also need to see if the alternator can be rebuilt or needs to be replaced.

Well, suspension and sterring stabs installed. This rig's ready to GO!!  </ROCKIN/>

My only hang up is I had to put my spare tire on because I discovered yesterday as I was leaving Allsouth that one of my main ones has a busted belt insude. So, now I have that as a trail spare, but that's about all it's good for. Not sweating it though.

Danny you got those pics you took yesterday man? I'd love to see em.

^^haha, i don't think any of us considered the possibility of the ram not being totaled. Don't let the insurance company take advantage of you. I've had them try to get me before. "oh, i didn't know it was 4wd. I guess we owe you some more money".....bs

For sure bro. Those insurance guys will cut corners on you and low ball the living "H E" Double hocky sticks" out of your Jeep if you let em.
I honsitly am amazed the thing isn't completely totaled yet though, because if they deem it road worthy, and if fails causing another accident, it's their ass on the line.

Don't let the insurance company "forget" to pay you for Diminished Value. Some won't pay if you don't ask.

I have camp site P-14 reserved for Friday and Saturday (next door to Kent in P-13). Kent, I read somewhere that you're planning on bringing some fire wood, but I bet it will be cold so I'll bring some too and worse case we'll have a big fire.

DO NOT SPEED TROUGH OAK RIDGE. They have radar detectors on the stop lights. I was up there a few weeks ago and just got a $50 speeding ticket with a pic of my truck and tag enclosed in the envolope in the mail. I was doing 44 in a 35 somewhere in town.

Sounds like hot group breakfast at your site.  What can i bring?

Sounds like a plan to me! Im good with whatever, except Bobby has to bring those crazy cheese grits. I could make those omelets.

I can definately bring up some fresh eggs for Omelets.  {letseat}

Very nice pic's and videos. 

I will prob. stay safe this weekend. after watching the videos , i could prob. do alot of the trials, but some of the places, i will prob. pass.  to much rocks and i dont have lockers, nor the clearance
for some of those rocks.  also...  this is my Daily Driver and i have to make it back to snellville, GA for work monday, so.  I will be a chicken , but will enjoy watching others flop, and bust stuff.   {hihi}

I did get new lights and my PS skido installed via , allsouth on Friday.  so i do feel better.  for some reason, new stuff on my jeep makes me feel better. 

now why is that?

(865) 435-1251 ‎

i put this into google maps, and it pulled up the same map as on http://www.windrockpark.com/directions/  which is the actual. site for the park. 

i guess if i key this into my TOmTom it will get me to the same place.

not sure if i get my site at the main office, and then on my way i pass the .. snack shop and get my permit and maps?

Really? after looking at google maps, as i come in on windrock road, i can take a right? which takes me toward the sites.  is the snack shack past wilderness sites, as you head into the trails?  the address pulls up the main office as on windrock road, .. see the tab below on the link marked "A"   anyway. i guess ill figure it out.  i got a jeep, ill just go over it if i have too.  lol

If you look at the Google map link I posted a few posts ago, it shows the entrance to the camp ground as B, and the parking lot at the Shack as C. 

If you go to earth view/satellite view you can see the camp sites up in the woods a bit from the entrance in the clearings, and you can see the back road from the camp sites to the parking lot.

Here it is:  http://goo.gl/maps/R5VLk

I guess a place called Windrock is a good place for a windmill. I hope we get a chance to see this up close. I've been out west and seen many from the roadside but never up close.

(http://img443.imageshack.us/img443/805/windmilly.jpg)

Each wind mill located at Windrock is as tall as a 26-story building, and rises 262 feet in the air. To get an idea of just how big this is, look at the base of the windmill, and you will see a person standing there. The white blades weigh seven tons, are 135-feet-long and can be seen for miles as they slowly turn in a gentle sweep.

It's official, we're not going to make it this time. My sister is stopping in this weekend on her way to the okenfenokee swamp, so I guess I have to stay home and visit. You all have a great time and take lots of pics.  Maybe we will make the core ride next month!

I'll handle the eggs. Planning to have cheese and sausage for them too. Feel free to bring whatever else you want to cook. Bobby might bring some bad ass cheese grits too.

I'm trying to get an idea for who all will be eating.

We are gonna have a handful of kids with us. 4 boys (ages between 7-9)

You can bring whatever else that can go with omelets. Maybe hashbrowns or something, doesn't matter. I'll have three burners inside, small gas grill, and another coleman stove. Should have plenty of room to cook.

It's definately got some damage to the front drivers side, and doors. So I'm waiting on the insurance guy to get here to evaluate the damage repair cost. Problem is, I don't know if he's gona be here today, tomorrow, or next week some time.   WTF

We have rebuilt the entire vehicle & don't want to "test run" it at such a big park. It will be a bitch if something doesn't go right.

Post by: Danny Kinder on November 12, 2012, 09:38:24 AM
Very sorry I couldn't make it guys! As some of you know I parted out my XJ because I am starting a new project.

The new rig will be a TJ : 18" ORI Struts front - 16" King Coil-overs rear - front and rear 60's - 5.2 Magnum V8 - everything else new.

But, in the meantime I traded a few ATV's and some cash for a Suzuki/Toyota buggy, so that I could still go wheeling every month :fu(
Well, once I started looking further into the buggy I saw some sketchy work!!! Mainly some wiring issues and bad welds. Soooo, as I always do, we took EVERYTHING a part. We re-built everything from the engine to the body panels! We also installed 6.5-1 gear reduction and a evil-t twin stick. Once everything was installed and ready to test drive (7:45 Friday night) We drove it & everything looked good! We decided to drive it one last time before we loaded up to leave for WindRock - that's when Bryan noticed the front input shaft (for the mid shaft) was moving about an inch. This is probably the only part of the vehicle that we did not check or replace!! Mostly because the drive-shaft in that section is less than a foot long. Needless to say I could not take it wheeling at this point!!!
I am just now starting to cool off enough to get back on the forum! I couldn't look on here all weekend! I went directly home Friday night and posted the buggy on CL! I will just have to pull some late nights working on the TJ and get it done! I would rather start my own project from scratch than try and clean up someone else's mess for a month!
