MEB East Coast Bronco Roundup June 25-27 2015, Registration CLOSES JUNE 8TH!

[Broncitis]

I'm going to make the trip for the first time. Wish my truck was a bit closer to being done but we can't let that keep us home. I signed up for trail rides but we are still an open diff 2wd. At best I can do Fwd or Rwd if I find a transfer case yolk quick. Street cruise is ok but we do enough of that around here. Looking forward to meeting you guys.

Generally, FWD only will not get you anywhere, especially with an open diff.

RWD locked does well, open will get you by on most of the green trails, but you may have to avoid a few spots even there and take some go arounds where possible or be helped with a strap.

Are you missing a front or rear yoke on the T-case? I probably have 1 or 10 of them in the shop. More if I count the ones on the 15-20 cases on the pallet rack. Let me know ASAP if you want me to bring one and I will dig one out. I'm away this weekend and head up to the event on Tuesday night or Wednesday AM.

Thanks guys. My Dana 20 has a Spicer yoke and a Borg-Warner yoke. Driveshafts are both Spicer. Is there any difference front or rear? If you can bring a Spicer front yoke I'm a buyer. Enough hi-jack. I am about to post in Parts for Sale with stuff I can bring.

Aw crap Randy! I always go to Parts-a-Rama cause it is so close.

Another first-timer question: Will there be some vendor/swap meet area?

We've tried a swap meet a few times in the past and it is rather hit and miss. Most times there are one ot two guys with some items in their truck or trailer, but most deals and parts swaps seem to be pre-arranged on here or other groups.

There will be a couple vendors on hand, but again, not much inventory for sale, but more that was pre-ordred for free delivery in the cases of those who drove (Tom's Bronco Parts is sending someone this year, but it will be a bit harder for them than Duff's to pack a suspension kit in his suitcase for the flight out) ;D

RT81 was supposed to be down to one lane both directions between exit 107 and 100 but appears closed at exit 100 north bound and the traffic is backed up.*This is the campground exit.


Since I was coming fron the south I took exit 90 to the light, went left and at the next light went left which dropped me right to the campground about 8-10 miles down. You should pass Wendy's Fast food on your left. It was an easy route and I highly suggest taking that exit.

I will try find out more about the route between the campground and Rausch Creek and forward that info on Facebook and Classic Broncos

I don't know. Not sure if you can wash your rig at the campground sites. There might be a car was in town.

Dont curse the weather just yet... Currently calling for 20% Thursday & Friday with 40% on Saturday... all mid to low 70s. Could pan out to be a great weekend for the trails!

I recall there was a self serve car wash place in town.

Looks nice and cool too! Heck, maybe the threat of a little rain will keep some of the non-Bronco traffic at bay. More trails for us!
