How about this action^^^? we can make that work if there is room. The 44A is different, so my cover won't work - BTF sells a cover tho!

As far as plate, I wouldn't go thinner than .250, maybe .3175 or .375, but that's getting thick. Gotta make sure we don't kill ground clearance too much. Have you looked to see how other people truss it? How about a plate style like a Spider or F9 axle?

Looked at a Rubi today: http://www.hondrudodge.com/used/Jeep...aa369f57f8.htm Too much money IMO.

^^ def too much money. Mine is two years newer with less miles and I paid $15k

I'm here, I'm here. Now I'll see if that notification thing for this group will keep me a little more up to date. I might be interested in splitting a cabin. Who all so far is thinking of the trip the weekend of the 19th?

Well, Kev it looks like we got Squazz, Jash (as they say in Chicago), Luciano, you n jorge if he comes, and me. I asked Jeff, but he plans on keeping the squirrels company in the woods. Nobody else has stepped up. I asked this hot chick with a TJ on 35s at the gym, but I don't think she's coming. I did get some dirty looks from the wife tho :-p

Im down, trying to find someone to take the ride with me. Im probably getting a hotel nearby though

Luciano, bring your significant other (or wife), Jen doesnt like being the only chick.

Im trying to convince my girlfriend to come (future wife)

No Jorge this time. He's working pit crew for ATF racing.

Josh I may reconsider the hotel idea and spend the money on a warmer sleeping bag depending if the girl comes with. You willing to camp still?

Something like this
Like 3/16 plate

Then truss like this
