Thanks Eddie and Undertheradar for the intel!
If the gate is at 82" wide, I think that would rule out full width axles with slabs right? Heck, I would think my standard width axles with Slabs would be too wide (I'd measure but I'm not home).
So for reference I measured my jeep. I'm 78" with stock axles, stock wheels and 1.5 spacers. Tires are 35x12.50 Nittos.
If I calculated right, I'm effectively 4.75 of backspacing. Maybe that will help people figure out where they are.
Good info Scott!
I'm itching to get home and measure mine. I'm at 3.75" of BS, so. I'm thinking I'll come in right around 80".
Ricky, what's the girth on your rig?
Mine is 85" so Ricky should be "85.25 in the front and 83.75 in the rear or really close. Like I said, you guys should be able to squeeze through. I'm only 82.50 ring to ring.
Whats this "you guys"? You better be here too
I doubt that will be happening. I wish, sounds really fun
Glad you saw this. You were the reason i did it; said you were out of town on business.
Good point though on ring to ring. I measured rubber, but to fit someone could air up and draw the tires taller/skinner...
I doubt it's the weekend of the 7th for this trail, so we'll keep you in the loop when we get a group.
Thanks man! Flying home now and should be landing in about 6hrs.
Is camping an option along the trail?
I read there's camping at the very end, near the water. But I'm not sure, maybe someone's run it and can verify.
6 hrs?!? You must be over water right now then?
Or freaking Bangor Maine... I had to google it to see how long the flight was....

I'm thinking Hawaii!
Even further north than that in the Northern Territories. We are about 7-1/2hrs into the flight home with 5-1/2 to go! Ugh!
Holy hell... That sucks....
I'm thinking Hawaii!
Not even a little! I'm very fortunate to love what I do!
