California NorCal Jeep adventures!

Lol sorry, It’s pin stripe city, it’s been on fire, dry and dusty.
It’s a fun run if you live nearby
I should have my TT done by them along with new front arms. Key word "should"😂 I am more than down to go whenever
I don’t mind setting up something for cow mountain toward the end of month or something. Jeep needs fixing
Maybe we can shoot for some time end of this month or first part of March. They close the gates when it rains hard, so we'll have to time it pending weather.

Channel 4.00 seemed to work good for us on the last run. I gave @DylanM345 my handheld and he came in crystal clear.
UHF. If you are programing via frequencies, channel 4:00 is frequency 462.637.
Currently fixing a few things will get back to you all on a wheeling daytrip end of month. Jim is right I have bump steer and it’s annoying and I had to send my drivshaft to Tom woods for inspection . I may need to get a flat pitman arm for my setup (rare) from “parts Mike” in auburn

You made me look again to see if I wrote socks or shocks. That road is 30 miles of the worst washboard i have ever been down, I trashed a set of shocks on a brand new 1 ton Dodge Ram
My bad LOL I miss read it you were correct on shocks

Had one of those rental jeeps on the road BLEW the shocks they caught fire in the back by dripping on exhaust and thing had NO shocks bounced it all the way to the rental return.

Glad it wasn’t my personal vehicle.
 
I can say Death Valley most washboard ever
Went in 2018

Should have.

It was some Jeep Compass thing or something. Poor car was ruined. Guy drove up beside us screaming “your cars on fire!” So we pulled over let the small flames go out on plastic bumper than drove it back looking like steam engine as it kept spitting exhaust fluid on the exhaust. I just want forget hitting the speed bumps at the rental car place and the thing bouncing like 10 times as we parked. Zero shocks left.

Trail Rated my ass...🤣
 
So where is the racetrack ?

You can get to it from lone Pine on Saline Valley Road or you can get to it in death Valley from Ubehebe crater, The part I marked in red is pretty much all washboard.
