So we got plenty to Tellico chatter in the thread so lets start some here. I for one plan to go to Tellico in Dec but will probably be on the easy trails as I dont see much going on with the Wrangler..... Unless we hit it big in Vegas!
Anyways, sad we wont get a piece of this:
Slickrock, December 29th, 2007.

Atleast you got to do slickrock. I never got a chance! Shame too! I forgot how freakin awesome lower 2 was as well! We stopped and walked down to the rock garden. :'( :'( I almost cried. Man I will miss tellico. Jerm, you can ride co-pilot with me up the bus, heli and the rail. You have got to see those trails before they are gone!
-
deal and I can take more pictures than you can say "jump on my front bumper!"
-
I really want another wack at Slickrock. :'(

As long as there's no rain. This trip was ridiculous! Chris and I vowed to never hit Tellico wet again :D I'd love to do the easy trails in snow though. :)
-

SEXY!

you know, hearing Ben talk about walking the old trails. I might hike up to Slick Rock. Think it is still legal to walk the old trails? It would be cool and wierd to go take a picture at the same spot as the one I posted, a year later.
-
Jerm, let's hook up for a day to do this. I would be all for a hike up to slickrock, peckerwood and rock garden.
-
Jerm, let's hook up. I would be all for a hike up on to your peckerwood.
:o
Can you say...
BROKE
BACK

Ben when ever you are ready. I am going to call the Ranger district to confirm hiking is ok to do. How far down the trails is it blocked off to get to Slick Rock? Just on that trail or further down 8? Just wondering how long it would take to hike in December.
-
I think you can still get real close to the top od slickrock. The other entrance is gated. Chris= 8==D
-
Looks like some folks from Pirate 4x4 are trying to put together a Pirate at Tellico weekend in December before the FS makes their final decision on the 18th. Ill keep yall updated

I didn't get to ride with you guys on that trip in 12/07, but I was about 20 rigs behind you at Slickrock. I got to watch most of y'all that day. I broke another stock driver's side axle in my Dana 44 front end that day and I have been waiting every since for a set of Superior Evolution axles for it!! Mac from Superior said that they should have been shipped out today (only 10 months later) so maybe I can make it out to ride WITH y'all this time. {cool}

10 months waiting? No wheeling? Ugh.

Well you can drive that stock LJ right behind my stock JK! I am going up all stock to ride. The ride is "exclusive" so if you have not already submit your membership info here: http://www.gatrailriders.com/GTRForums/index.php?topic=132.0
Matt will aprove it and then you can sign up. Most of us wheel our DD's so we keep damage and breaks to a minimum.

I better go home and take the pictures I've been meaning to then!
Hopefully the pregnant one will be okay without me for a day!
Thanks Jerm!

I am running a Midland 1001z that I got from Amazon for under $30! Then just get an antenna and mount. The mount I got came with 18' of cable. Fry's sells SWR tuners for $10 and your good to go!
-
get the whole setup cb, mount, antenna wire, swr, everything you need at one place one time for under a hundie.. wit great customer service...
-
Well, unless I can find another stock axle for my waggy axle, looks like I will be sitting out another ride! >:( Mac (vice president of Superior axle) assured me that my axles would be shipping out yesterday. Today I find out that the stub axles are ready, but the inners still aren't ready yet..........I ordered these January 4th of this year. I don't know if I will EVER get to ride again. :'(
-
That is a bit crazy there! Waiting almost a full year???????? Why not can the order and go else where?
-
Alloy USA's have a 10 year warranty, but they are not made in the USA...also, they are backordered also. Yukon's are junk, they have a good warranty, but that does no good when they break on the trail. Superior's are the best by far. Their splines are rolled, not cut and their 4340 chrome moly is better quality than their competitor's which is made in India. They are American made with a lifetime warranty and they are the same price as the others that I feel are inferior quality. Superior axles are the standard that all others are compared to, so why not get the best!! But on the down side is the amount of time that I have had to wait. :'(
-
I run superiors in mine as well but that wait is insane! I can't believe nobody has a set somewhere to ship!!!!! :P
-
Tell me about it. I have been watching a thread on Pirate, and I am not the only one having problems. http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=666899&highlight=Alloy+USA+axles I have even been dealing with Mac McMillan who is the new Vice President of Superior Axle since about June. He replaced Mike Jr. somewhere around April of this year.

What day is the tellico ride in decemeber? Is it 12-14? We need to get a head count of who is going from GATR. I am now interested in this since beasley got washed out.
-
The main shibang is on the 13th saturday. Cookout etc. I want to head up a few days early to camp and chill. Yeah, we need a head count for it to save some spots at crawfords.
