Hello from Boiling Springs
« on: October 29, 2012, 01:45:51 pm »
Hi all!  Sent my membership application a few weeks ago and look forward to becoming involved!  I recently purchased a 2005 Rubicon and have begun the long (and expensive!) process of getting it (more) off-road ready.  I took it to RC last weekend (still stock) and did surprisingly well on greens and some blues.  I want to get a 6" lift, change my 33's to 35's, add a front bumper with winch.  Also need to add some skids and I'll pretty much be there!  I'll take any advice on where to get good, used parts (wheels/tires, winch, skids, etc).  My wishlist at Quadratec is going to require a second job!  With that being said, I look forward to meeting you all and getting involved!
-Ryan

Hi, Ryan!

You're right, stock Jeeps can do a good job on a lot of trails.  Driver skill factors in, too!
From time to time, people buy/sell/trade parts on here, as well as Craigslist and whatever local boneyards are around for parts.
Hope to see you in the future!

Hello Rubicon Ryan,
Welcome to the club , Boiling Springs , is the 4 wheeling up your way still good ? We use to run from Mount Holly all the way down to Caledonia then across Rt. 30 to Waynesboro made a good days trip .
I'm sure some trails we've been on are now closed or grown shut or have Condos. built up around them.
See you some time some where .

Welcome to the club,  you are very close to me,  Look for a sorta annual impromptu snow run up Ridge road at or around the first major snow fall of the year.
