"Nacogdoches Shake Down Run" #1 Feb 2nd 2024

[MavNick92]

Hey Squatchers!

I have some stuff I want to put on the Maverick:
-Offroad Lights for the Cab Rack.
-Finish Mounting Apache Cases
-Limb Riser Kit
(*if I can get all 3 things done I'll eat my left shoe... )

I know quite a few people who would benefit from an Accessory day with a Shakedown run. So I am planning on being at the black top next to Banita Creek Park North, FRIDAY FEB 2ND after work.

I figured some folks have some things they'd like to have some help with putting on their Rigs, so if you can make it out Friday evening, I'll more than likely be out there until about 7:30 or 8:00. (unless I get finished super quick and no one else can make it out )
The idea is to give eveyone that extra light-holder/bolt-fastener/other-side-holder/carrier-of-heavy-things/gear-hoister to put things on their rigs easier.

[THIS IS MEANT FOR ACCESSORIES!!! THIS IS NOT MEANT FOR MAINTENANCE, REPAIRS, OR RECONDITIONING OF OUR VEHICLES]

AND THEN, I have a trail saved in my ONX that we can take just outside of Nacogdoches towards the Angelina National Forest section closest to , that'll help us test some things out with our newly added gear! (if you really wanna, that is.) This is the road that I'll be taking the Jeep Girl Mafia down after their time at the course, I've driven it well, and it's one of my favorites!
Radio Channel 6 - the trail leads to a boat ramp where we can take some EPIC night shots!

I get off at 5:00 pm so feel free to come on out then, but I'll need to go grab my boy Hawk so he can help me out with some upgrades as well! So, I'll be there around 5:30.

If this meet up is something you want to attend please let me know what you're bringing to get help with beforehand so I can bring the proper tools and/or people!

***UPDATE***
We will be meeting at the Black Top by the Offroad Track off of Lewis Street here in Nac!

I will be bringing some lighting implements, but feel free to bring your own as well! I WILL BE AVAILABLE TO HELP YOU PUT YOUR STUFF ON!!!
The entire point of this is to try and get your stuff on there before you go to Broken Bow (or any other adventure you have planned.)

Planning to attend:
Nick Bueno
Keelan Steinhauser

Ok guys, so it looks like this'll get rained out today, so we'll plan on rescheduling when we can help get everyone ready for the Broken Bow trip!

And remember to have your vehicle checked over before you get out to the park, if you haven't already!

Great idea, wish I was closer to Nac. I'm still prepping my rig and making sure it's up to the task in Oklahoma. Really looking forward to this trip.

Yeah, I really want to be able to help as many folks as possible, because I remember when I was about to go to Merus, my buddy DJ came over and helped me put stuff on. That's what made the trip easy and fun, if you really think about it.

It's kind of a two-fold deal in my opinion:
Not only does it provide more secure additions, but the people who invest their time in your rig, are the people who can spot you out of any sort of obstacle, because the more familiar they are with the dimensions of your rig, the more confidence they will have guiding it through danger!

Exactly right
