I have been looking forward to the event since last year and had everything in place and set into motion so I could be there and see all of my dear friends and family...and then I got a job
As important as all of you are, to me, I had to start earning an honest dollar and my new job starts on Monday morning.

Congratulations Howie! I know you have been looking a while. We will miss you and like Alan said....we will see you in the Spring!

If I am running a half cab, I do not have to have a roll bar correct? I am not going on any extreme trails.

Looks like a roll bar is not required so long as you have a full solid top in place. This is what the Superlift website has on requirements:

Level One
This level is for the novice off-roader. Four-wheel dive will be needed occasionally for a few "tough" spots. Bring a camera and the family. At this level everyone can relax and enjoy the ride.
Level Two
For the little more experienced 'wheeler. Four-wheel drive will be needed a lot. Stock vehicles with stock tires are OK. Still an enjoyable ride, and a great way to climb into the 4x4 sport!
Level Three
Action-packed and challenging, for moderately experienced 'wheelers. At least 32" aggressive treads are needed, rear locking differentials are recommended. Level 3 requires more concentration than levels 1 and 2.
Level Four
High-intensity, adrenaline-pumping fun! For experienced wheelers only! At least 33" tires and front/rear lockers are a must. A winch and tree strap is recommended. These trails require a co-driver / spotter and heavy concentration.
Level Five
This is the real deal for experienced off-roaders! Nobody gets on a Level 5 trail without being locked front and rear. Your must have a winch and tree straps, 36" or taller rubber, and little regard for your rig's body panels. You can expect cosmetic and mechanical damage on some of these trails. These trails require a co-driver / spotter and your undivided attention. Bring a camera and a clean change of underwear.


Equipment Guide

* Functional seat belts for all occupants (must be worn at all times)

That is correct, no roll bar required as long as you have a hard top

 

[SpareParts]

Sorry to hear you won't make it Howie. Like everybody else has said, jobs are hard to come by and we all understand. We will see you in the spring, Howiepalooza VI here we come.

Shoot, I'm missiing two still. Can't find my seatbelt kit I purchase several months ago and no tow hooks. Anyone have an old set of seatbelts they can let be use for the week? Will one shackle in the rear do for the tow hooks?

It sounds like OCBR is going to be GREAT , this year !!!
It appears as though I won't be making the trip. Nobody is more saddened than I am about it.

I have been looking forward to the event since last year and had everything in place and set into motion so I could be there and see all of my dear friends and family...and then I got a job
As important as all of you are, to me, I had to start earning an honest dollar and my new job starts on Monday morning.

I hope everyone has a fantastic time and may their travels be safe and uneventful.

Happy Trails to you all !!!


howiebilt

Great hearing about the job Howie. Sux you won't make it though. I was real excited the other day when you told me you'd make it with the Bronco. Thought I was going to have to offer you mine. Sure will miss you buddy.

 

[NYLES]

What no flat tire? Wont be the same W/O ya man!

 

[Steve83]

Have any seatbelts??

Now that you reiterate... I had almost forgotten that I ordered 2 of these years ago, and never installed them. They're still in the sealed bags. I think I paid less than what they sell for now, so I'd let them both go for $30.

I had planned to put them in my truck for the 3rd-row jump seats, but it's such a PITA to R&R the ones that are in it that I never got around to it. But if you help me swap the tan ones into my truck, you can have THAT set for $10. They're black, and they don't match, but they DO work.



I'm bringing everything shown in this post, too.

 

[sprdv1]

Y'ALL have FUN and Stay Safe...! Almost time
