Headed out in a week :big_banana_Dance: Anyone else want to come along?

Trick_Raptor Taking Lippincott Road all the way through to Saline Valley sound interesting. I read that this is a pretty sketchy , narrow road. You think it will be doable after these storms? I haven't done this route either, but if we end up in Saline Valley we can stop by the hot springs and...

With all the talk about Titus Canyon I may need to add it to the list for Saturday. I have not done this route before. I always discounted it because it looked like such an easy road. Hell, Ive seen pictures of Prius's on that road. How long does the route take? I have taken the dirt from 190...

AlpineM3 We are headed out on 3/26. I will leave Long Beach around 3pm. If you can make it, we can meetup along the way. Otherwise I will send you the coordinates / directions for the camp site and you can meet up with us on Friday morning. bstoner59 I hope you can make it out. Should be a...

The only area that I can think of that would have snow is Hunter Mountain. I have been up there with patches of snow, but nothing too bad. Ill check with the BLM, but this late into the season I cant imagine it being a problem. I was thinking about Cerro Gordo, but that would probably be closed...

I'm headed out to Panamint Valley for 3 days the last weekend of March with a few friends and wanted to put out an open invite to the Raptor community. Were going to head out there on Thursday night to secure the campsite for the weekend. These runs will be a mix of different terrain...

Ill take the bed extender

Depending on the price I would be interested in the springs.

Check your PM :)

Congratulations, you picked the best color:favorites13:. I'm thinking about making a Death Valley run in March. Once I have some dates finalized I will let you know.

Mine has recently started the cold rattle and it sounds like it is coming from the center of the dash. I haven noticed that when my climate control is on the AC blows through the front vents, the heat automatically comes out of the defroster. if I change to the front vents the noise goes away...

they have what appears to be 1/16 and 1/8 wall. I was only thinking of using the smaller one because of weight.

I am going to use the 3/8 RH/LH Heims with the weld in bungs. My shop has thick and thin wall tubing. I was thinking the thin wall would work, but im not sure. I have a tendency of overbuilding things.

Thanks J Damage, My tailgate will always be on so I guess I don't have to worry about any bed lean. My plan is to build this with Heim joints at each end, like a really long turnbuckle, and make a 3rd mount further up the side of the bed. This way when it is not in use I will swing it to the...

I have the Bakflip F1 and on a few occasions off road it has come unlatched. I was thinking of building a removable support that spans across the top of the bed at the back by the tail gate. I have seen the supports that attach the bed sides to the floor, and I could copy that design but I...

Kim, This has probably been asked already, but will we ever get back the option to enter coordinates? These vehicles were made to go off road, and there aren't too many addresses out there.

Ill take it. I'm tired of worrying about my frame. Send you a text in a minute.

MustangAndRaptor So Cal Raptor guys seem to be pretty active. I have only done one event with they guys from the forum, and it was a great time. If you look at the upcoming events you will see all kinds of people putting runs together. I mainly spend most of my off roading time in Death Valley...

No pics but Soda Lake was somewhat dry. We were a little nervous at first, but went for it. There was plenty of mud to wash off after we made it to the other side. The run through the wash to Afton Canyon was also quite fun. We reached the train tracks just in time to see a train with all...

Sunday we had to complete the road and get home so we rushed through a bit. The whoops on the road were kind of annoying and seemed never ending. We had to stop and check in at the mailbox and see the frogs. Also noticed that some people started to randomly place gnomes around the area...

The favorite stop of the day was an abandoned mining camp just outside of Cima. We were waiting for someone to pop out of nowhere and chase us off, but that never happened. Some real Hills have Eyes stuff. We stayed at Hole in the Wall campsite that night. It really is a great place...

Saturday we really didn't have a set schedule, just a list of places to checkout. First stop was the petroglyphs. Couldn't have asked for a better day We stopped by the stone cabin. Interesting, but not much to see.

I'm a little late, but here's some pictures of the run. We headed out on Friday around 3:30 from Irvine, and thanks to traffic we didn't arrive at Fort Piute until around 10. We had checked the Mojave website before we left and the only mention of weather damage was that the road through the...

Yeah, got home about an hour ago. I'm exhausted... I will post up some pics the next couple of days. All in all it was a great trip.

I didn't realize it would take so long to get to Fort Piute. Might have to rethink our first nights stay. I am planning for the cold weather. The only thing that will really get to me is if it really windy. From what I am seeing it will probably be in the 30s - 40s at night. Camp fire and some...
