s'ko Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 mmm... I think I am game, have to check w/other 1/2 and then decide which soob to take. This would be a good shakedown trip for the BRAT. But OBS is more reliable. We'll see.. BW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooinater Posted March 2, 2007 Author Share Posted March 2, 2007 plenty of sand and there's some rocky trails we'll be scouting also. bring the brat, it's got a lift right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuBrat84 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I might have to go in a Jeep if I can't get my axles and driveshaft done for the brat before then.... but I think I could use some good primitive camping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s'ko Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 plenty of sand and there's some rocky trails we'll be scouting also. bring the brat, it's got a lift right? The lift is almost done. I have to iron out some remaining issues and get it started. BW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s'ko Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 mid april works a lot better. I am having problems with the camber and I have decide to go with custom control arm. Have a friend who can TIG helping me out. We are kicking around some pretty sweet ideas here in SOCAL. Like long travel rear trailing arms and stuff. Most of our terrain here is rolling dunes and desert so articulation and low gearing is not a must. Suspension travel for Bajaing is what is needed.

s'ko Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 right on. Looks like we are the only two here that are going. I might be able to convince a friend to come and drive my wagon and I will take the BRAT. BW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuBrat84 Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Still have not found anyone to do my axles yet. I really doubt the brat will be ready in a week. I still want to take the Jeep. Hope the wifey is okay with going since I have to go to phx this weekend with her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuBrat84 Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Not going to make it. Couldn't get my axles fabbed and the Jeep is having overheating problems on the freeway. If it wasn't a couple of hundred miles I would take the jeep... but ... oh well. Being broke down on I-10 last weekend SUCKED. Not looking for a repeat. *Bummed* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
