I would be willing to drag (lead) a group around Aenta. I just ask that the folks that come to be ready to hang out an have a good time wheelin. It will be the mix of trails from hard to easy. I am going to bring a few folks from NAXJA too. I will be avoiding as much of the mud as possible.
Cracker Barrel at 9:30 am October 11th.

-
This the weekend naxja is having the flog up there?
Yeah, but it's not a flog. It's a Meet & Greet.
-
Sorry! I'll get my P's and Q's straight next time. I'm sure I'll make some sort of appearance that weekend. Mind state still uncertain.

Oh lawd! Game on!

Is Aetna now open? Old post back in May said it was closed. Any details on what has happened?
Thanks.

Thanks.
It is open and legal. Short story is the "big shot" land guy tried to illegally put up a gate on a public county road that would have lock out other land owners from thier land. One of the other land owners showed up on the day they where going put up the gate with a court order from a gudge saying "it is against the law for you to do that". There are a couple news items on The Chattanooga news free press's website about all of it.
-
Thanks, again.
-
those excavators are really doing some work at the base
-

They have to leave the road open. IF we can't park at the bottom then we will park at Belico and drive in.
-
I'm might be up for it if its dry.
If its wet I might ride with my cousin if I can get him to go or ride my Husky!
I got a bit of a to-do list before then but I'll try to make it.
-
Come on all you need is a front drive shaft.
-
LOL. I have no rear bumper as of tonight.
Making a hitch/bumper/D-ring mount thing LOL.
Ill slam on it thi week and maybe have it done by next weekish.
I'm using the stock bumper but adding a hitch that fits up against the bottom of the bumper and mounting some Clevis's thru the bumper then putting the reciever thru the bumper too.
You going Drew?
-
ya im in.
-
Nice...
I'll try...
DO the required GATR stuff apply to this ride? I done exactly have a "working" parking brake. Little release button is busted.
-
You're fine.
-
Aight because I've never used my parking brake wheeling before. Guy I bought the Jeep from told me the stealership quoted them $300 bucks to fix it. I might can rig up something on it. It'll engage just not diengage.
I'm going to buy a fire extinquisher at the industrial supply place and mount it somewhere cool.
I hope the weather cooperates dang it. Looks like we ahve several people going too. Looked on NAXJA. Got like 5 over there wanting to go for sure.
WHat time we meeting where?
-
I'm scheduled to work that day but I may see what I can do to make it up there.
-
Come on witcha bad self then.
Did you get my PM Derrick?
-
Yup
-
I'd love to come out and run with you guys that weekend. My only concern is that my Jeep still doesn't have a lift kit or 32's. (Won't get that stuff til March most likely.) Is Aetna stock Jeep friendly? Just to come spectate the bigger obstacles and start meeting you guys is all I really wanna do. But I don't wanna be the guy you're stopping to help every 5 minutes. :P
-
Nice...

This is not an Offical ride. But the more stuff you have on the "list" the better off you are on any ride.
-
Yeah I know that lt99ls1 but I was just chacking. I have a CB(installing soon), picking up a fire extinquisher and I got front and rear recovery. Working on the hi-lift and parking brake thing.
I talked to my cousin he thinks him and my buddy will have his XJ done by then. I can get a TJ to go too.
-
I am going to try to be there.....I guess I need to get my CB fixed, I tore the antenna off when I smashed the rear bumper on the 4RNR at mountainside.
-
So are we meeting at the base of the mountain?
Looks like there will be alot of us up there togther. Maybe meet at Cracker Barrel or something instead so we dont take up parking spots?
-
I changed meeting place to the Cracker barrel.
-
Cool sounds like a plan. See yall there. Cant freaking wait.
-
I'm going to try to take that day off.
-
I'm really hoping that one group will be the DDing stocker/closem to stock rigs and the other be the non dders and those who don care to get it scratched. That way everyone can have fun without risking too much and the bigger rigs wont have to crawl thru the crappy easy stuff LOL.
My shit aint broke and I want it to stay that way so I wanna take it easy on its first run out.
That cool?

There should be bypasses for most everything. I understand not wanting to hurt a DD.
-
Ive been up there an we found the not so good bypasses. I'm not sure which way we're planning on going but we went up the public trail out to where you got across 2 powerlines and come out to Ball's Hill. It was rough but I saw several stockers playin in Peanut Butter Hole and have no idea how they wouldve gotten through there. I did see alot of bypasses out in the open but it was raining the night before and everything was crazy slick.
I was on a 2wd 250 4wheeler but at that time I couldnt even think of taking my XJ thru there. My cousin tried with a rear locker and 33" TSls and had to winch 4 times before we came out to where the big pic is of all the rigs at Aetna last year or whenever. We parked hime there and let him eride his dirt bike. He was pissed LOL. Hes going back with the understanding that yall know the better ways to run and will get us DDers thru without much trouble.
P.S. got my rear recovery(modified hitch bumper) almost done. Might start on some sliders. I've got 3 weeks I can gettem done to keep my trim looking decent LOL.
-
Wait, he didnt get stuck trying to climb the steep hill to the big flat spot did he?
-
Yeah, I remember that one... in the middle of a hurricane!!!!! :o
-
Is there a decent hotel nearby, I half way prommised the wife a trip to Nasheville that weekend end, but I maybe able to change the destination, not sure but the sucking up can start now if there is a Hotel not to far.
-
Plenty. Google it.
-

I think there are cabins on Racoon mountain too. But I do not know what all they come with.
-
All I know is we camped at the top of the mountain on the powerlines(you could see the big industrial building below us) and we went back the way we came bout 1/2 mile and went to the left towards what we were told was peanut butter hole. Is was absolutely nasty. I really dont know how to explain it LOL.
We ended up in a swamp bottom and there was like 4 other stuck rigs around us. If we had kept to the right we wouldve came out right below Ball's Hill. We came out on top.
-
Bump!
-
Anyone going close to my height? Or will I be looking like a hot wheels while yall are Tonka Jeeps? LOL
Good news one more thing is off the lsit. Hitch. Still A lot more to go.
But Ill be there for sure. Forecast's showing no rain all next week so it should be pretty dry which is good for Aetna. Im sure theres still some sticky stuff though.
I got Friday off again I think so all the other stuff is going in and getting ready to go.

We're in...

Thanks Guy
-
Got the front driveshaft today and the hitch done. Installing it all that and the leaf packs today. Ill be ready to go.
-
I got the yeep put back togeather today.I am ready.
-
Driveline vibes?
-
Who me? Nope SYE!
If not me then oh well.
Got bashed on NAXJA about the welds on my hitch but Ive seen some pretty gnarly welds that hold up and a gorilla welded(looks like shit but holds like a gorilla) mine. Ill be aight I reckon. I dont think I did too bad for it being the first build Ive done all by myself.
Welder was set at 20 and 395ish. Recommended 1/4" welding on the Miller 251 I used. Oh well.
-
Man if it was welded twice you will not be able to see the botoom weld. I always try to put as much stress on my welds as I can before I use the item. I say hook it to a tree and snatch not too hard but enough to know it will either break or hold up. Or have someone hook a wench cable and pull you in park. Either would put alot of stress on the whole assembely.
Ps post the link next time it took me forever to find yo post ;)
-
Made a new rear drive shaft, installed a new trans filter, trans gasket, straighten the belly up skid plate (nothing like droping a truck on the bely up to fix it :D ), tighting the trans mount and mounted the York.

-
ima try and make this ride also. waiting for new winchline for jeep and softtop. if it comes in time, im definitely game.
-
Hey Larry, I think your skid was a little bent :D
-
I put in a cb today, might ride till like 1 or so, gotta get back for the georgia game...
I'm running a cheap wal mart set up on CB, I don't know if the antenna will do any good on the mtn though, anyone use the $10 one they have there? my buddy already had one and gave it to me, it works alright on the highway, but I might have to upgrade..
-
for some reason now, after running the antenna cable from the back bumper to the cb mounted on the dash, the cb only gets a signal when the jeep is running? it was working with just the battery turned on
-
Ground problems, probably at the antenna mount.
-
ya its a magnetic antenna, but now it is working without running the engine, and I'm picking up some truckers from my driveway with the volume at about full blast, which the freeway is a good 3 miles from my house
-
So how many people are coming for sure?
Yall meeting at Cracker Barrel or at the base of the mountain?
-
I'm not sure where we will end up meeting.
-

I've only been there 100 times. Yes, if you want mud, there will be some, but the route I take doesnt get much mud.
-
You guys have a great time! I am bowing out on this ride. Not a good weekend for me. Also still need to drop my fuel tank(3ed time) and fix the leak. This time will epoxy the seal that holds the gage sending unit. :-\.
Knuckle
-
:D Man you guys bust me up! I'm not going to jump on the band wagon on this one since I haven't meet any of you. Far as I'm concerned though you can call me whatever on the CB.....just expect something in return. 8)

the mountain really isn't hard to get up as long as you have a decent set of tires, it's just the ruts and stuff all the way back to the PB hole that might give you trouble, but it really isn't as bad as people make it out to be after a rain IMO
-
Yo bronco I have ran all over aetna on 31's wet,dry,snow its possible. The way Chris goes in is a cake walk. Dude nothing is hard there are a gazillion lines. Follow me I'll be takin the pretty in pink trails.

-
YA I know we just took the shitty lines and completely wrong trails when we were coming up.
Came out parked my cousins XJ while it cooled from overheating(couldnt tell what color it or we were). And saw stockish XJs running by us with very little mud on the tires LOL.
Ill follow you Jeremy. I know my cousin only knows a few of the trails that he says are tight so pretty in pink trails for me too LOL.
Drew I saw the pics from aetna I know Ill be good. Aint worried about it at all.

I'm only on 30's and open/open.....then again I like to drive a little crazy. 8)
My 13 year old also drives so look out. Don't let him show ya up. ;)

-
nwcj5- You the guy that got out and looked at the lines with me and two other guys when everyone turned around? Which way did you end up going? Never seen you after that.

we had no problems with taking the power lines to the hole. the main trail up sucks when its really muddy like that. got a few of the stock tj's a little tipsy. the one stock xj i was with did better than i would have expected. i think we had 2 tj's 2 wj's & 4 xj's.
-
arrrrg u guys are killing me i havent been out for a ride for over a year now i'm thinking reallly hard bout haveing the truck fully ready for a nice tellico trip or even up to aetna I hope everyone had a great safe weekend ;D
-
nwcj5- You the guy that got out and looked at the lines with me and two other guys when everyone turned around? Which way did you end up going? Never seen you after that.
ya that was me, I stayed on the main trail for the most part, I definitely did my share of articulating through the side trails, but it was a little challenging and fun, got stuck going through a hole I had no business in but the guy with that crazy cj7 winched me out, they gave me a hard about it though but it was all sh*#s and giggles...I'll try and get a pic up of my junk stuck....
lt99, you got any background info on trevor's rig he was driving?
-
Juan, this is Shawn, the guy in the stock WK. My wife was in the stock TJ. I didn't see it, but I heard you guys had to stand on her bumper as she lifted two wheels coming down that left turn from the power lines. Thanks for all of your help yesterday. It was really great riding with folks that are into teamwork and communication. You should've seen some of the stuff we did later in the day following Billy out. I wish we had video of it, but we were all busy negotiating stuff some of the lifted guys were going around. Look forward to riding with you again!

no problem buddy! ;D i am always nervous at aetna, the environment changes on a daily basis there. we usually come up where we made that sharp left where we all got a spotter. that can right turn coming up is really scary. it was much easier coming around it the way we did. just give us a shout if yall ever want to go up again. we'll go up usually on the drop of a dime!

me and my buddy that was on the four wheeler are probably goin up next sat...he'll be in his truck, we got it running sunday..just to let ya'll know if you wanna go you won't be the only one there..

there are usually people there. were you the one that just stopped while we were just starting out and said you were'nt with us?

nwcj5 are you talkin about the zuk Trevor was in ?

nwcj5 do you speak of the white one with the GA trail riders stickers on the side window and offcamber4wd windshield banner? If so, that is mine. Why?
Thanks again Juan for helping Shawn, his wife Niki and my wife out! They did great wheeling. Sorry I got split up from ya. I thought everyone would wait up the top of the hill as I did the first obstacle. I think my mall crawling gang wheeled great especially for this being the first real time my wife has wheeled and Shawn and Niki that was about there 2nd or 3rd time out.
I do believe I wheeled the pee out of my 30's! I hope someone saw me in the peanut butter hole going up the one side! ;D
Thanks to Chris and the others who set everything up. Good to meet everyone!
My pic links are in the NAXJA thread.

Trevors zuki is 99 3/4 inchs of WB, 5 to 1 tcase and I don't remember the rest.
Sorry I had to leave out early, breakin pinnion in the dana 70 that put an end to my day.I got to be a little more gentle and quit drive like a mad man.
I think next time the Aenta ride will be a little smaller.

it's kind of sad, there's only been a handful of trucks and jeeps up there on the weekends, as opposed to what it was like before the gate thing..
zukbilly, ya we already covered this in the other thread
bman, I saw your jeep but the one I'm talking about I'm pretty sure had the gatrailriders banner in the back window, I was just curious as to who it was

Yeah, I really want to get back up there before it's too late. Hopefully I can make it to ride with you at Tellico in November. We need to get Glen out somewhere while he's back.
