im def. in this month havnt gone in a while!!

[Treewise]

Count me in, couldn't give a toss where we go just aslong as we go. Still got no rock rails, but never mind eh? Hey Xeon, can I count on your winching skills again when I get hung up and can't open the doors like two Sats ago? Looking forward to it............

[MYGOODNESS]

I'm in this month ....

[YMMV]

Depends on the date. I know I def can go the last Sat of the month.

[GreenMachine]

as long as it is not the 9th I'm in! no questions asked - I'm going.

[XEON]

Hey Xeon, can I count on your winching skills again when I get hung up and can't open the doors like two Sats ago? Looking forward to it............
Dont know if my skills will be availible. Not sure if I will be able to attend... Trying to get my Jeep out of the garage... Deadline is getting close.

[Treewise]

Don't worry if your Jeep ain't ready......you can ride shotgun with me and watch my face as you hear Mother Nature destroy more of the underside of the PW! In fact, fuck it bring your Ram. Ha Ha........

[gellio]

Ready to go anytime! Finally got the winch for those slight mistakes!

[jfrdog]

I'm coming for this one no doubt!

[bondo303]

I can go if it is the last Saturday in Dec.

[Victim Of Pain]

Virgin to wheelin here, but if you've got someone running greens and blues I'd like to join you. Depending on the date that is.

[Treewise]

I'm just down the road in Rockville Centre, lets get together for the Dec. trip. I'll hit some blues and greens with you.

[YMMV]

Dates? What dates are best for you guys. I was hoping for the last weekend in Dec.

[Victim Of Pain]

Cool, I'm right on the borderline of RVC, right off of Long Beach Road by the golf course. You're not the guy in the big H3 are you? Saw that truck the other day, had some big swampers on it, looked pretty bad ass.

[Treewise]

No not me mate, I'm the Limey in the grey Dodge Power Wagon with the TREEWISE plate. Does your band play 'round here? As for dates for this, I don't care really, I'm gonna try and tag along whenever it is.

[gellio]

CAN WE PICK A DATE FOR THIS MONTH'S TRIP!

Its December 5th already
Got to get out his month. :giveup:

[Treewise]

What ever date suits you, one of the Saturdays this month has to work for most people. The 9th, the16th, I'd even go on the 23rd. Lets SORT THIS OUT!! Or the 30th!!!!!

[Victim Of Pain]

Gotcha, well if I see you, I'll try and pull you over... Grey TJ here.

We've played in Freeport and Lindenhurst, but our following is mainly in Brooklyn, Queens, and in the city.

As for dates, I agree, figure something out, and I'll see if I can tag along as well. Maybe pay my sis a visit in PA as well, kill two birds.

[YMMV]

My vote goes for last Sat in Dec.

[snow2004]

i want to hit up RC

[gellio]

OK obviously we are going to PAP. (see poll)
What day? Need an admistrator to pick one.
Dying to get out this month.

Lookin for greens mabey a few blues :ntopic:

[XEON]

How does the 16th sound? Or the 30th? 16th I might be able to make it. 30th I cant at all.

[gellio]

16 th good for me. Mabey better than the 30th for some with the holidays.

[jfrdog]

I like the 16th because I might also be away on the 30th. Just my 2 cents.

[XEON]

How does the 16th sound? Or the 30th? 16th I might be able to make it. 30th I cant at all.
Bump. :dbeer:

[Treewise]

Is it the 16th or what? That works for me and I'll have my new 35 mudders on so lets do it!!!

[Victim Of Pain]

Looks like my maiden voyage will have to wait, blew out my master cylinder on my clutch Saturday night. Glad we didn't go wheeling Saturday Treewise, my wife would have definitely blamed it on that... :duh: It'll be fixed by then, but I have to catch up on all the crap I couldn't do this weekend.

[jfrdog]

Do we have a date yet? :duh:

[Treewise]

Your wife sounds like mine! Sorry to hear about your clutch, pain in the balls eh? Plus shelling out cash on your motor just before the silly season , and missing the Dec. run taboot. Lets try and do something a bit mild when you are up for it out in Suffolk. As for the Dec date, I'm hoping for this Sat the 16th.

[XEON]

Is it the 16th or what? That works for me and I'll have my new 35 mudders on so lets do it!!!

Does the 16th sound good to everyone??? We need more input. I will put up a vote.

[bondo303]

I can only go on the 30th. This is my busy season at work. If not the 30th, I will try to make the Jan run.

[jfrdog]

Does the 16th sound good to everyone??? We need more input. I will put up a vote.
I tried voting for the 30th but the poll wont let me :duh: ?

[XEON]

I tried voting for the 30th but the poll wont let me :duh: ?

Ahh damn. I think becuase I edited the old poll, people who voted before cant. Did you get an error? If you are, just post the date please.

[gellio]

Someone pick a date please!
16th - 30th any!

Can ya tell I want to wheel this month LOL

[YMMV]

Ahh damn. I think becuase I edited the old poll, people who voted before cant. Did you get an error? If you are, just post the date please.

Yep. I cant vote again. - Dec 30th.

[Treewise]

Just as long as it's not the 23rd, busy then. The 16th or the 30th both work for me, I'm just waiting for the tyre dealer to call me to slap those 35s M/T on the truck. I'll do this Sat or wait 'til the 30th, whatever. You boys pick a day!! and I'll be there.

[jfrdog]

Ahh damn. I think becuase I edited the old poll, people who voted before cant. Did you get an error? If you are, just post the date please.
It says you have already voted on this poll. I say shoot for the 30th.

[gellio]

Well since is already the 12 and no date, I guess the 30th is the best bet.

[XEON]

Ok. Well 30th sounds like its the one. I wont be able to make the trip. So we need either Scott or Rod to go on this trip. (Badzook or XTC Jpr13) This it to make it official.

You guys can still go. YMMV has been to Paragon a bunch of times and I am sure he would not mind to get people together.

Lets shoot for the 30th. No guarentees on it being an official Tri-State 4x4 run though. I will be out of town for New Years.

[YMMV]

Please reply back that you are a definite and maybe we can get a caravan going and a head count.

[XEON]

Please reply back that you are a definite and maybe we can get a caravan going and a head count.You guys can go on the 30th. I just dont know if it will be official. None of our reps are responding and I cant make it.

[jfrdog]

Please reply back that you are a definite and maybe we can get a caravan going and a head count.
Hey Sinclair I'm in no doubt! Did you end up still going offrding that Fri? :fftopic: I know, I know.

[sentinal02]

[XTC Jpr13]

i would like to and i know that i am free that day, i just gotta see how the money situationis forthat day. I amgoing to try and make it, but Im not 100% yet

[badzook]

Sorry, I'm out for December but should be in for January.

Happy Holidays to all Tri State Members............ :wtg:

[YMMV]

So far its me and jfrdog, anyone else? Gene (CSE)?

[mehret]

I just realized it's on a Saturday, and I can't get off work on Saturdays, so count me out. :mad:

[bondo303]

If it is the 30th, I will be there.

[Treewise]

I'll do the 30th. Coming from Long Island if anyone is interested, never been before so would appreciate any company.

[YMMV]

Me and jfrdog can meet you somewhere on rt 80 in NJ.

[Treewise]

sounds good, let me know where and if anyone else is coming with me from the Island we'll meet.

[Victim Of Pain]

Got the clutch fixed, but can't do the 30th, going to see Gov't Mule... :dbeer:

[jfrdog]

Sinclair I'm going to be coming out of Allentown, PN so I guess I'll meet you there. I'm going to be getting in at the airport the night before but my parents are going to drop off my jeep. See you then!

[Treewise]

Do love a bit of Govt Mule! Give me a shout in the new year. I'll try and find anyone else when I get there.

[XTC Jpr13]

OK guys, I am about 90% sure that I am going to make this trip, and then it can be official! Everyone that is going to be there, please PM with your real name and a cell phone number, that way if your running late or something I can get in contact with you. I will post up in a couple days if something happens and I can not make the trip! Also those going, if you could let me know what types or levels of trails you would like to run, that could help as well!

[gellio]

I'm in for the 30th. Coming up 80 in NJ lookin for greens
Love to caravan

[XTC Jpr13]

[Philly]

I'm in for the 30th! Looking forward to it!

Phil

[YMMV]

Head count?

[Treewise]

Sorry boys, can't do the 30th after all. Women, what can I say? I'll do the 6th of Jan though with 88sub4x4 if anyone else can do that rather than the 30th.

[waketek516]

[YMMV]

What kind of trails we looking to do?

BTW-Something just popped up so I will only be able to stay for half the day.

[XTC Jpr13]

gellio asked for greens, but he is ont 32's so he should be able to tackle some blues as well, so my guess is high green-mid blue's, if anyone has any specifc trails that they want to hit, post up and ill see if i can come up with a rough route throughout the park!

[bondo303]

You forgot about me (bondo303) Scott and I think Gene is going too (mygoodness)

[XTC Jpr13]

ok, no problem, i hadnt seen you post and hadnt gotten a pm from you so i wasnt sure!

[MYGOODNESS]

I just found out my weekend plans changed to WORK :mad:

I'm not going to make the run.

[XEON]

Scott, do you want me to put an official thread together?

Thanks Scott for putting this together. Hope you guys have a good time. If you guys take pictures, please email them to me so I can put them in the gallery.

[XTC Jpr13]

small groups can be good though. you cover a lot more ground that way :mrgreen:

[YMMV]

Looks like I got another truck joinning me so that makes 5. Like I said, I have to be outta there by 2 or so. For anyone who is new, you will have to watch a video so be there earlier then 8.

[Treewise]

Well I hate to say it but now I can't make it. I was offered extra work on Saturday and I really can't refuse. I should be in for next month.
Would you be interested in going on the 6th instead then? At the moment there seems to be about 4 or 5 Long Islanders heading out there then. Obviously, you're more than welcome, like I said, the more the merrier! Plus the fact I've never been there before.

[bondo303]

Hey Treewise....I would love to go on the 6th but the wife is working so that means I have to stay home and babysit. I am looking to go at the end of the Jan.

[YMMV]

XTC, me, a buddy of mine, and gellio will we meeting up at 5:30 at my place and caravaning. DO you want to meet us on rt 80? Maybe at the truck stop at exit 4 for Columbia? jfrdog will be meeting us at PAP.

[Treewise]

Hey Treewise....I would love to go on the 6th but the wife is working so that means I have to stay home and babysit. I am looking to go at the end of the Jan.
No problem. Anytime you do go to PAP though, or anywhere else, give me a shout. I'm up for mud just about any time. There are a couple of places on the Island that I go to every now and then, would be happy to go there with you. Maybe in the new year? or we'll get together for the end of Jan at PAP.

there are my pics from the day!

[MrZ71]

nice pics wish i could have come how did the ranger get stuck in the water ?

[XTC Jpr13]

if you know the section of the park, its down around outer spare tire, and it is thick goopy mud on the bottom. he tried once and didnt make it, so we told him he just need a bit more speed(this is after hiim reaching a whole arm into the much to attach the strap once) so of course he went for it again, and after not making it he decided it was better for his vehicle to just go around it. I will say that he was the only one to play in the mud though!

[jfrdog]

To bad about that tire swing of yours Scott. When do you get it back?

[XTC Jpr13]

i will most likely wait until i go down there on the 27-28, but it should be done befoore then, i dont know exactly when yet.

[NYWheeler]

What happened Scott? Did you blow out a ball joint, those first two picures show your passenger side wheel a little off.

[XTC Jpr13]

i am thinking its the bearing, ill get it aparts and look a little closer tomorrow

[gellio]

Had a great time Scott. Thanks to all. Hope your jeep is not hurt to bad. Sent you pics please post!

Hey guys how about that dual extraction technique!

[XTC Jpr13]

yup its just a wheel bearing, its pulled now and waiting for the replacement to come in!


I never got any pics?

[88sub4x4]

Looks like you guys had a great time ;-)

Thats the first time I've seen a later model ranger on the trails there. Kudo's to the guy driving it :wtg:

[gellio]

Re-sent the pics.
Had a great time.

[XTC Jpr13]

got them this time! will try and get them posted up tomorrow!

[YMMV]

Had a great time guys! Thanks to Scott for leading and coming. Glad it was just a wheel bearing. THanks to George and my buddy Mike (owner of the Ranger)for hanging around as I had to get to NYC. I will get my pics up ASAP. Had a great time as usual!
