[Rustyrunner]

Live in Winnipeg, grew up in the Whiteshell.

I SAS's my 4runner just before i joined the board though i got all of my info on how from here. Been lurking here since early 2001.
4runner was SAS 37 MTRs, with 82 front axle, welded, 5.29s, All Pro hi-steer arms, longfield super set and hub gears. Rear leaf conversion with e-locker 5.29 gears.
Motor/tranny/transfer stock.

Its going through its third revamp now. Before the snowfell got the D60(chevy) installed up front. Have the matching 14B for the back, likely going to weld it. And swapping the drivetrain for a sbc383/sm465/stak mini three speed. I have everything ready to go with only the steering and driveshafts left to source. Also would like an ARB or e-locker for the front but might wait on that and run open until i can afford to upgrade the axles,joints and hubs as well.

You can forget about the floodway.

[meridian]

no more? havent been out that way in a while. not suprised if closed down. always thought it would happen. still lots of other good areas

[Rustyrunner]

I havent been out there since summer but last time i was construction for the expansion was right at spring hill. I know the local clubs and what not are asking everyone to stay away in hopes that part of the floodway will be allocated as an offroad area but going by the article in the sun a couple weeks ago that has a slim chance in hell of happening.

It sucked in the summer but i always had fun there in winter.

[TurboBrian]

Rusty Runner if you are wanting to sell any toyota stuff ex. axles. please pm me. Thanks

[F150hybred]

You can... if you want to get your ass busted nine ways to Sunday. For some reason... the kinda frown on the off roading thing there.

[my_nanc]

manitoba man here, but i live in spearhill, north of ashern, (interlake) got lots of places to wheel around here. no restrictions at all....... Just in process of building a 1997 dakota with dana 60 front and 10.5 stirling rear. 44" tractor tires for the bush and 325/85R16 military for the street.

[punkrockrawler]

i'm in the process of moving from the states and purchasing 600 acres in the white shell to set up for "private club" four wheeling facility . looking to haul in some rock to set up man made course for crawling enthusiast, will post up new info shortly .

[Soup Man]

Some slight variations in lightly rolling terrain and large random boulders. I'm working with a Realtor on narrowing it down to 2 locations and we are hashing out a plan to hopefully have an agreement on an offer in the next couple weeks. This likely won't be ready to open until summer 2010 but could possibly use some help clearing trails and such before then.
