I'm in St. Louis, but I'm out of wheeling until I'm out of school and have enough money to buy a dedicated rig. Learned the lesson with my last truck (the one in my avatar) on having a DD/wheeler- having to fix whatever broke got old. :(

But I DD an 86 f-150 on 35's that sees an occaisonal trail and mudhole. I typically play recovery vehicle, learned the lesson on body damage with my last truck as well. 12K winch, detroit locker front end, twinstick 205, NP435

I am a little north of STL. I live in St. Charles but have property in Troy. I am heading to Disney this weekend. I was wanting another rig to go since I had an empty spot on my trailer. Leaving tomorrow morning around 7 or 8. Best wheeling I have ever done no mud like the other places unless you want that then there is plenty. Mud ruins to much stuff rocks just bend things a big hammer can fix.

I'm close enough to St. Louis, I'm over in Alton, IL. Got a fullsize bronco 1988. I usually just watch at most of the events around here, since my bronco always seems to be broke down.

Custom Differentials - Dutch Mud (brighton, IL) - Buchanan Mud Fest - Flintland 4x4 - Going to Brownstown this year, and want to check out XRRA at Hannibal when it comes up.

I have seen both of you two driving around the City. I have a shop over at the corner of Watson & Arsenal, & occasionally keep my Jeep up there.

Big Blue, You would not happen to be a teacher over @ Bayless would you?

I live 2 hours east of you in Carbondale, IL. Check out our club website GAORC.COM. We usually wheel at Tellico (not anymore), Flat Nasty, or Harlan. We are going to Flat Nasty over memorial day and will likely go to Harlan, Clayton, and Hannibal at some point this season. Vehicles in our group range from TJ's on 33's to rigs running rockwells and 44" tires. We also attend a few competitions each year as spectators, last year we made it to XRRA Grey Rock, WE Rock finals in Hannibal, and King of the Hammers. Our first event this year will be the Grey Rock XRRA race the first weekend in May. Check out the site (GAORC.COM), we'd love to have some new members!

I live out in Foristell, MO. Property backs up to Incline Village golf course. Have a buggy on 42's I have been building that will be done in the next couple days (basically living in the shop now) and also have a 04 Rubi. Hooked up with a great team, Team Rockwild who runs Rrock and we may be running some other series soon.

I'm out in Old Monroe...about 10 miles north of O'Fallon, MO. Usually take a couple trips a year to Disney, Hot Springs, SMORR.

Heres a pic of my 94. Still has the 4.0 but I swapped in an AW4 for the AX15. It has 44's front and rear with 456 gears and lockers. 37 inch Rockers with stauns. Moved the rear axle back and slapped in a fuel cell. Just recently added the stingers front and rear.

I use to live in Troy, had a black YJ on 35"s and mostly hit private land and whatever I could find. Moved to AZ and got spoiled--tons of wheeling spots but the Gov. is starting to fuck that up. Moving back to Troy and will be runnin a 90 F250 got some work to do--bob it, cut the hell out of it,no lift and 40"s, and look for Rockwells/ZF's or something big. Hope to run into some people to find some trails with.
