Hey Guys,
Sorry it fell apart. I was able to make it around 12:30. I did see one ranger up there, don't know if it was one of ours. Also, saw a Bronco, and a Rivian R1T over by the obstacle course. He wasn't driving around when I was there, but it did look pretty cool.
I apologize guys, one of my employees called out sick for 3rd shift, so I will be pulling a double to cover. I will try to join around noon or so if I can.
OP has the list of those who said they were going.
When: Saturday, February 5th @ 9am
Where: Hungry Valley OHV park (meet at 4x4 test track)
5301 Ralphs Ranch Rd, Gorman, CA 93243
Lunch: BYOL
Communications: FRS Channel 21 (462.700MHz)
Coming from the south, we're meeting at the Pilot in...
Both things on my list of must do's...
How was Death Valley? I've been wanting to do DV to Vegas for years.
Feb 5th won out. We will have to set up another run maybe in March so you guys can join us.
We will be going all over the park. Are you worried about ground clearance or just 2wd? We can do about 90% of the trails in 2wd. We can stay on the lighter trails first, and then if people want to, we can move up in difficulty.
I hope you don't mind, I threw out an invite on the bronco6g forum to see if any Broncos want to mix in with us. I thought it might be cool if anybody wanted to get a closer look and had any questions.
With the soft top, there will always be more noise than either truck for sure. To us, it's faded to the point where we don't really notice it. It is weird to be able to hear a loud vehicle coming up from behind though. However, I have never been a fan of soft top vehicles, so when a decent hard...
I have an FX4, son has a tremor, and the wife has the 4 door bronco. All drive great and smooth. With the bronco on the freeway, I'm always surprised to be going 80+mph. It does not feel like it at all. (2.7l BadSquatch) Wife is very picky about ride quality and she loves her Bronco.
Feb 5th won with the most votes.
Also, I'm not on any social media, so I can't spread the word on other pages. If you all know of anybody who wants to go, spread the word.
Going so far:
Pleatherface + 1 to 2 other local Ranger owners
Niklyons238
jcru1017
RangerRick19
SfvRanger + 8-10
Sure,
I used camper shell clips from amazon, and 80/20 scraps for the cross beams. You can use Unsistrut, square tube, angle steel, whatever works for you. Here are some more detailed pics of both racks.

Another update...
Built a complete rack for a roof top tent. Gave the flat rack to my son for his truck and tent. Both racks worked great, no issues, even bombing the dunes at Pismo.
Probably the Ventura location. They tried to get me for $53k out the door for a lariat fx4 back in '19. Along with a very low trade in offer. Went to Sunrise NoHo and got mine for $40k out the door on black friday.
Yeah, she's a '92. Pulled her out of an impound auction. I wish my order for the new one came through, still waiting on that one, it would be sweet to run with both.
