I know this is a bit old, but Chilliwack river valley has some awesome wheeling. Check out tamihi creek area as well as Chilliwack lake. Chilliwack bench fsr has a route called Cheam-Thurston loop that's known as the "Mini Whipsaw" Welcome to OB!
Looking at the thumbnail, it looked at first like a two tone rig bogged past the axles in the sand lol. Glad it wasn't that! Glad to hear your trip was a success. :D
I think a two pronged approach is needed. One is that we who are responsible and who respect the wilderness need to continue to pick up after ourselves and others, both as individuals and as organizations like 4wd clubs and OB, but the other is that we need to be calling, writing, emailing, etc...
No, what I'm suggesting is that there are certain individuals, usually the sort that never set foot outside a city, who would rather block all human access to wild places, and they use the careless actions of a small minority as a convenient excuse to ram through their pre-exisiting agenda while...
I have to say, it's also quite unfair of the powers that be to be just go around closing everything because of a few a-holes when there are perhaps just as many, maybe more people who are responsible and actually go the extra mile to clean up after others. It makes me suspect a political agenda...
YES, thank you. This drives me absolutely nuts. I don't know what kind of Alpha Hotels people are that they dump trash in the wild, but I try to do my part by picking up at least a little bit of trash every time I go in the outdoors. If every person who went into the back country picked up even...
I've played with the idea of doing something like this, but honestly I can't see myself bothering to do it. I've got way too much going on in my life to spend the time on this sort of thing. I admire the attention to detail represented here, though :D
Served in the Canadian Army 9 years. Our MLVW's are basically identical to the Deuce and a half, so spent lots of time in one. It just needs a bit of modding to make it comfy. Gotta love that diesel drone.lol
If you really want a 6x6 and you're fortunate enough to live in the US of A, why not just buy a surplus Ma Deuce?

The vehicle was engineered for that drive system from the ground up. You could just pull the box off and fit your...
Depends on what you're up to with your vehicle, as you mention. I would avoid mud that deep lol But yes, if you're going into that sort of stuff, Hi-lift is your friend. Pick the right tool for the particular job.
SO jelly of that troopy. Love that thing.
I'm currently investigating the possibility of getting my grubby mits on a milsurp swiss G-Wagen. A company in Quebec imports them. Not likely to happen for me, but one can dream.
I think for most applications, a 12 ton bottle jack is a better choice. It's very compact, can lift far more weight, and is far safer and easier to use in most cases. Having said that, a Hi-lift jack can do a few tricks a bottle jack can't, such as manual winching, but only if you have a bunch...
Hi Railvan,
I've heard that there are timber leases or somesuch thing invovled, and nobody is in a hurry to fix it. The bridge is impassable by 4x4 mostly due to two gigantic boulders they've stuck in the way, although motorbikes can pass.
Fortunately the water crossing is quite viable for...
There's a member on here who's been slowly resurrecting one of these. Pretty awesome looking vehicle. His is mostly stock still, but check out his thread on the subject for more info.
