Badlands/Attica Memorial Day weekend

[Jeepguy91]

Sounds good. Hopefully they change their mind and come memorial day weekend. Would like to see them powerwagons go down orange trail.:roflmao:

 

[Jeepguy91]

There is also a couple tj's coming this weekend from jeepforum.com.

Yeah, Scott said it best. Prices are the same, they are working on what looks to be a emergeny vehicle trail to parts of the orange trail. Also they are currently building a new MX track.

well it sounds like they have been hard at work there in Attica! good to hear! Its not like there was anything "wrong" with the way it was, but improvements can only help i suppose.

so it sounds like there will be quite a few trucks showing up that weekend, i'm sure there will be plenty of people to hit the trails with and it should be a fun time!

Well I am in for sure - probably be camping down there, and may even head done Friday afternoon / evening. Probably have a few power wagons on Saturday and will venture out with mine for a bit. Do we want to set some kind of time / place to meet in the morning. I have Ben's number - believe he is still planning on heading down Friday

 

[Jeepguy91]

Ya i am still planning on heading down friday afternoon. Need to get the jeep put back together now. Don't think i am gona be locked in the rear by this trip.

 

[FlexdXJ]

I would but the Jeep will be torn apart that weekend. Throwing my lift on and getting an alignment before i go anywhere

 

[philagony94xj]

Well if Jeepguy and 92XJT are planning on camping there friday night, we could probably meet in the Top parking lot right behind the Entrance building.

If there is anyone who is trying planning on going and in their travels has to pass the intersection of Rt.30 and Rt.41 in Schererville, maybe we could set up a spot early morning so we could all roll down together. I would like to leave that particular spot at about 6:30. that way we could make it down there at a good time right when it opens.

If anyone has any questions feel free to PM me or just type away on this thread!

 

[Jeepguy91]

Less than a week away. Everyone have their rigs ready?

 

[92XJT]

All ready and mostly packed too. MikeG from PS and two more jeeps going on Saturday as well, this will be his trial run after the build on his dodge.

 

[philagony94xj]

well i am ready exept that i have to put my SYE in yet. from what i've been told its not all that complicated. so it should only take a day or less. wednesday seems a good day to do it. either of you guys put one in?

 

[Jeepguy91]

I have put one into a buddies yj. Not that hard. We had it put in in an afternoon. Just left the t-case in the jeep.

 

[zjdxj]

I am going with a buddy of mine, has a tj, will be there friday night thru sunday, staying at the campground. Never been there before, only been to wellsville and silverlake. anyone meeting up? blue xj green tj ,
oh and leave the t'-case in, see you there

 

[Jeepguy91]

Well i think that we are meeting up behind the main office around 9 or so. Just look for a white xj with boggers and a roof rack.

 

[philagony94xj]

if you guys wanna hang for a little bit up there i wont be arriving til about 10 their (Attica) time. since there is a stupid time change even though i'm traveling straight south. i'll be leaving lowell/cedar lake @ 7am on saturday morning. should only take about 1.5 to 2 hrs. we'll see maybe i might be earlier.

I am going to leave the case in. did a quick look see today in the garage and it doesnt look like it will be too much trouble. (knock on wood)

see everyone there!

If you've never been before, its a good time and great place to have fun with your rig. Everyone is super cool too.

 

[Jeepguy91]

Sounds good. Will have the cb on channel 4. Mite mess around on the rti ramp to see what i can get.

 

[TheEddie]

Me and a buddy or two will be there on Saturday as well. I'm running a similar setup Phil so maybe we could hit some trails together. :wave:

I'll be in a white 98 4dr with 31s and a rack. I'll be on ch. 4 as well.

 

[92XJT]

Hey TheEddie, was that yours at the wash rack airin up at the end of the day???? We will all have to hook up and make a trip one day - me, Phil, and Jeepguy were talking about the Cliffs next time since it closer for most of us.

 

[philagony94xj]

TheEddie, i remember seeing two white XJ's that would be similar to yours but didnt get any response when i waved so i didnt think it was you. If you were there, did you have a green 2 dr. with you cause that one looked the closest to yours. I think you might have followed us in past McD's on the road in the morning. Mine was on a trailer so my buddy and i could split gas prices. Cause he did a little ATVing also. Like 92XJT said, we could hook up and run the Cliffs some weekend.
