A few questions

Hi all, i have a 2017 jeep wrangler unlimited that is sitting on 32s and has an aftermarket high clearance exhaust with 3.21 gearing. That is the only things i have done to my jeep and am wondering if it is worth joining the group with such little mods? I am not planning on adding any lift or bigger tires for a few years. I have gone on some trails in VT and Tennessee but nothing really extreme. Do I need to do any other mods to my jeep in order to go on the trails or am I good? I have 3 kids and coach little league and am the safety officer so that takes up alot of my time also. I don’t want to waste anyones time and also don’t want to look like a fool if I pull up to a trail and I am the only one stock. :horse:

Hi we all ways have trail rides that you can handle stock. Just be warned It’s a addictive sport
Check out the calendar and come and meet up with us and see how you like it. There’s all ways
Someone to help you out just ask.

We do a good mix of events both Jeeping and socially. There is something for everyone. Check out the calendar and keep an eye out for random pop up events.

Welcome

Welcome!

As mentioned, there’s something for everyone in the club. I have a bone stock 2004 grand cherokee and while I haven’t been a trail with it yet, I’ve been to a handful of events, and have yet to have a bad time.

Basically saying what’s already been said here…

I joined with a 4 cylinder TJ in 32’s and a lift. All 90 crank HP got me in and out of some pretty challenging areas. My current Jeep is more capable, but like Golf and Bowling, it is more about getting the best performance out of your abilities, not getting the “high score” that makes it fun and rewarding.

I brought my 2 year old daughter on rides on some mild trails and felt comfortable even with the old Jeep. It’s a low speed thrill ride and some of the best trails in that difficulty group are only accessible if you are in a club.

In short, yes, it’s the reason to join. Of course you will see rigs that look like they came from Monster Jam, but the point of the club is to make trail riding approachable to ANYONE who has a qualifying Jeep (meaning 4-Lo, tow points and all terrain tires at the min…), not just the heavily modified groups of members. We have had several trail rides where we had Jeeps that were basically base models right off the lot with decent tires and they always have a blast, and are surprised just how “extreme” a stock Jeep is really capable of being off road.
