35 inch cooper stt's

Didnt want to loose that much bed space, wanted to keep it full bodied mj, and its a fad to bob beds (kinda like huge stinger bumpers).

J2squared, air over hydro, using bend tech.

Have you heard anything about the status of Barrett Lake? Last I heard it was closed.

Its closed most of the year (Its average open time is about 2 months per year!). It opens when the snow melts. Changes every year depending on snow level and accumulation. Here is a good site for info... (expected to open mid-july this year)

According to the El Dorado National Forest and other reports I have read it is closed until further notice, along with several other routes. Here is the full list. Barrett Lake is on the second page, route 11N26F.

 

I haven't seen a recent update. Barrett Lake is on our list this summer too. :fs1:

Ive seen that report as well as some talk on Pirate. The site I gave link to includes a # at bottom of page you can call. Were going to that area either way so we plan to just call when were actually there and find out whats up.

Got her out on the road a little yesterday. Lots of shock, sway bar tuning to do but she is a runner. Gonna clean her and adj. Suspension a little, then back in to finish the tube work. So sweet to get her out on the road.
