Hello, When I bought my 03 Envoy weekend fun vehicle I found the Trailvoy site with all of it's great info. Since then I have found the GMTNation and now I have found this one. I have not seen a GMT360 down here in Jax that is made for offroad, just lowered/ghetto versions.

So far:
Mark MC 3" lift
Mark MC 1.5" spacers
BFG 265/70/17 stock rims no caps :-(
Bumper delete
resonator delete
roof rack delete
running board delete
Front Diff seal replacement

Coming:
Adjustable Pan Hard bar
Bilistein 5125 rear shocks
MDB Custom Steel bumper with Bush Guard

Anybody go wheeling down here and know some good spots? LOL I know it;s flat!!!

Nope. Nothing good. I explored Ocala NF for 4 years and found a whopping 2 campsites I like. Same with Withlacoochie SF. All sand and mud with over grown trails and banana spiders in the summer. You gotta head to North GA to get any decent wheeling.

I have not. Is it an off-road park?

Yeah it's an off-road park, but I found out this weekend that it only opens for events and not daily fun. Bummer.

Oh. I don't go to off-road parks. That pay-to-enter bullshit is not my style (dirtbikes excluded)

So I found some great dunes at Imeson on North Side of Jax. So much fun!! Did a stupid noob move and got stuck for a moment. Jacked up front so I could turn wheels and put dirt under front right tire. Came right out.

I would post pics, but looks like have to post somewhere else and link here. Nah not doing that. Be on GMT.
