Hey as the title says I'm going out to browns on this coming Sunday the 5th. My rig is lifted on 33's and so is the other XJ coming with me. Anyone is welcome, but I want to try and run fire break five, hogs back, and whatever else we come on depending on conditions.

Ill be getting to the staging area right off the highway around 8:30 am.

I don't know my way around there and would love some experienced guys to come out to lead the way!
 
Where is Browns camp? I still need to cut out my fenders and if I can get time this week to do that I might be able to make it. Though I'm open open on 3.5" lift and 32's

Your set up is do-able for a lot of place at browns camp. Important things to have with that set up is recovery points front and rear and patience. Pick the line that puts the most contact with the ground as possible. Make sure to remove your sway bars as that will help your articulation and ground contact.
 
If I get my fenders cut out in time, sure! But I still don't know where Browns camp is. It would also be a shake down run for me too since getting the lift on.
 
going to look at why one of my control arms is making a clunking noise, but after the wife kid and I might make it out there for a little wheeling .

Thanks for the info, I'll make note of it for the future. It's a bit further than I thought it might be so I'll have to pass on it this time. Hope everyone has a great time!

No problem man, it was a bit late to get a group together I know.

Anyone else who knows the trails well able/want to come?
 
We haven't been to either of those trails but have a map and are willing to explore and hunt them down . I don't think they will be hard to find .

I don't think they should be. I've only been out to browns a handful of times but we should be able to find them!
 
Tempting, this week has been crazy busy. It'd be nice to get out, but I don't think I can swing three weekends in a row.

If you got a map, and have a basic sense of direction, TSF is really easy to navigate.
