The site is four milesoutside of Llandrindod Wells.Is it a Jeep only event? Mind if I bring some other Jeepers?

Sure, I would be delighted if you brought otherJeepers along (that bunch of last time at High Frontier). It isn'tnecessarily only for Jeeps. Can have a maximum of 20 vehicles and Jeeps arejust preferred. Even Chris is welcome to join us.Very interested & may know others (offline) who are as well. Put medown as a provisional yes too.--Its a Jeep thing..You wouldn't understand.URL: OROnline Offroad ResourcesURL: I'm definately interested.Put me down as a maybe cause I won't know for sure unitl nearer the time.I'll let you know ASAP, but if you need the space (20 Jeep limit), then feelfree to cross of my name.I'm very interested in this event and would like to be signed upprovisionally. However there are likely to be logistical problems (eg Imight have to bring my dogs!). Please send more details as soon as they areavailableMilesMMerseyside jeep off road : I saw a Cherokee this morning with a sticker in the rear windowwhich indicated it had an Off Road Package which I guess was anoption from Jeep. Does anyone know what this package consists of? 4WDRaised SuspensionFull sized spareSkid platesTow Hooksand I think the HD Alternator.I have a '93 Grand Cherokee Limited V8. The package on this model wascalled a factory tow package and included (I believe) most of the aboveitems, but not the tow hooks ($75 extra). It also included a full sizespare. The ride is firm. robertskid platetow hooksP245/70R15 OWL all-terrain tiresfront & rear high pressure gas shocksunique front and rear springs (1" higher ride)conventional spare tirematch 5th wheelCosts extra $794 for base, $578 for Laredo pkg E/F,or $423 for Limited 4WD-- //// Opinions expressed are entirely my own and nonrepresentative. //// //// Chuck Ortt at ////Skid platesGas ShocksFront/Rear tow hooks~1" lift235 All Terrain TiresFull size spareThe Jeep offroad packages are generally a good deal. It would cost you muchmore to upgrade by purchasing the parts separately. Highly recommended ifyou ever plan on taking your Jeep off road. The gas shocks give a slightlystiffer/more truck like ride. It doesn't make sense if you intend your Jeepas a macho mini-van or are going to be doing a major lift, adding a winch, etc.soon after purchase. jeep off road : Am trying to compile a list of worthwhile books on Jeep (TJ) and generaloff-road. Are there any books you have read that you think are really good?Please drop me a line.No books except the JEEP Bible, (my edition is before the TJ), but for offroadadventure, I highly reccomend the video, "The Bikini Off-Road JEEP Adventure." It depicts a few CJ's doing what CJ's do best! OK OK, bad acting but goodviewingWhat does SNOB stand for. Know what it means in England but that would beout of context."The Story of Jeep" by Patrick R. Foster Krause Publications Library of Congress Catalog Number 97-80609 ISBN: 0-87341-564-7 FYI Not in book area, but "Quadratec" (customer service 1-800-745-6037) has avideo "The Unstoppable Soldier" (part # 96050.50, $19.95) that also gives agood history of the Jeep.I just picked up a great book - "JEEP 4x4 Performance Handbook" by JimAllen. This book was published in 1998. Contains lots of good stuff includenewest mods to TJs. $22.95 at regular bookstores.We have two excellent books that include the new TJ Jeep. They are both newpublications just printed in the last couple months. They are: jeep off road : Can't tell y'all how excited I am since I got my new, well new to me, 2000Jeep Wrangler. It's only been a few weeks since I bought it but I am justabout ready to take this bad boy off road. I live in Tampa, Florida so Ifigure Ocala may be the best place for me to go.I have never been to the Ocala National Forest so I have no idea where to gowhere I will be able to introduce my Jeep to the terrain. Can someone pointme on the right direction? Are there any good websites out there for offroading in Ocala? Any pictures? Any other suggestions for my first off roadtrip?I am a 4 wheel drive virgin so please be gentle... ok not toooo gentle.Well, first off I highly recommend you find someone to wheel with.Running solo is not a good thing to do even for 'experienced' offroaders.Vehicles tend to break or slide off the road at the worst places andit can be a Long walk out sometimes... That said, I run solosometimes and have had 4, 8-10 mile hikes in the last few years whenthe trail went from 'easy cruising' to 'oh shit!' in a blink of aneye. On the last one, I tore a groin muscle when she tipped off theside of a causeway (the snow just let go under one side of my Jeep)and had to hike 8 miles in 3' of snow at -25C or so at night...
