I would bet his pump is bad. I run 35" tires fully locked with the stock box and pump and have had no problems. It is a bit tough to steer when I am not moving and I had to brace the box and frame, but the box still works fine.

I was up at Evans on Saturday with a group of Cherokees. We ran every trail except the 102 and upper 198. You now have to go through posts before you can get to any of the trails. I wheeled with a rig that was right at 80" wide and he just barely fit through the posts. The only recent changes to...

I get your point. You are saying that a government agency is not doing something it is supposed to do in the timely fashion that you would like. Imagine that!? I know it is hard to believe that it is not the Forest Service's top priority to update a width rule for an ORV park, but that is the...

Unfortunately they have yet to publish the new 80" width restriction anywhere. Those of us who were at the meeting did get the correct information from the people who actually make the rules. We were told by the LEOs who write the tickets that the width restriction has been increased to 80". I...

I've done that mod to my Jeep and the only time I use it is when I am on the freeway. It helps my MPG to keep it locked while driving on the freeway. You can also use it for steep descents.

Don't listen to all the Cherokee hate, cause you are going to hear a lot of it. Welcome to NWW and good luck with your XJ.

X2 I was there at the meeting sitting next to Corey when he said it. He said there is still some snow on the trail, but it is open.

Some friends of mine were up there last weekend and said the only trails they did not run were the upper 520 and 519., They said the upper 520 had several spots with 3-4 feet deep snow drifts that were so slushy that not even a buggy could get through. They never even tried the 519, but said...

Surprise Lake is the name of the lake in case anyone is wondering. Easy trail with a cool lake at the top. With snow it can get pretty sketchy towards the top.

Gonna head down to Winchester Bay Oregon and ride quads on the dunes.

I'm interested in wheeling with you guys. What time are you meeting at the Bonney Lake Fred Meyer?

I saw you guys out there that day. The snow was definitely a little too deep for stock rigs. I rolled up right as the Montero was getting pulled out.

I was up at Evans this Saturday. There was still snow on the ground at the entrance but it was only a couple inches deep. We started by running the lower 311. The upper 311 looked well traveled, but we decided to try the 520 instead. The snow was about 1-2 feet deep at the entrance and there...

I have pulled the tierod and draglink from a V8 Grand and compared it side-by-side with Cherokee steering and the draglinks were exactly the same thickness, but the Grand Cherokee tie rod is thicker. It is not a huge upgrade, but I know several people with 33" and 35" tires who run them and have...

I bet there is a ton of silt runoff from those logging roads.
