Good afternoon guys ! @Richard Franks@Soufiane@JamesBY@Mostafa Nasef@Mahesh_@Imran Asghar@AnasArif@Ali Al Moumar@Mohammad Sayawoush Azad@Rafey Hashmi@Shiju Raju@Benjamin@Faraz94@Theo09@Haneef Thayyil@Jeetu Sharma@frederic demolder@Joji varghese@DP1011 Thanks for signing up for another scenic drive !💥 The weather is finally cooling down a bit and i hope we can explore this area together. As i mentioned earlier this week, this is not a dunebashing drive🙅‍♀️, but a scenic drive where we will be mostly using existing farm tracks and cover quite some distance. 🐪🐪🐪We will be taking occasional breaks and i encourage everyone to bring a camera along to take some nice photos for our gallery.📷 As a small bonus i have split up the convoy in two teams. The plan is to have a small tug of war contest between the green team (convoy pos 1-10) and the blue team (pos 11-20). So train your muscles and have a good breakfast prior to the drive 💪 We will be using Carnity Channel 2: 446.031Mhz. For the ones joining us for the first time that do not have a radio yet, i can lend you one for this drive.📻 Bring your offroad gears such as a pressure gauge, deflator, offroad flag, and a good shovel.🐪 Upon arrival please park your car on one side only of the farm track so the farmers can still pass by. See you all tomorrow morning !

I’ve added you to the drive buddy. Sharpen your shovel as you’ll be our shovel expert Sunday 😉

Dear @ahmad lootahwelcome to Carnity ! Every newjoiner (whatever the drive level and experience) will first need to do 1 Newbie level drive. Once that one is completed you can request a promotion to Fewbie level on below link: Request Promotion This is to ensure we can gauge your previous experience and make sure you are safe and looked after. See you soon in the sand !

Hi @Mahesh_as this is a scenic easygoing drive, i've extended the convoy See you on Sunday !

If you are on a budget, it’s best to stick to the original rims. The reason is because we have seen cheap aftermarket rims failing as the casting quality is poor. The Mitsubishi rims can take a serious beating. There is no performance improvement in the sand or mountains in original vs after market rims. It’s a bold statement but also a fact. The size you’re suggesting is fine. Less than 17’ simply doesn’t fit on the 3.8 models due to the bigger caliper in the front. The original rims are 7Inch width from what I remember, which is better in the mountains as this will mean the rim itself will be better tucked in. Going for a 8.5 inch width rim will mean your tyres are stretched over them rim and will leave the rim very exposed to rocks and damage.

Well done @Sunil Mathew!!

Well done @Imran Asghar!!

@Mehmet Volgai think you have them right ?

Take a good hammer and give the steel bar some good knocks across the length. If the rust has done its work it will just fall into pieces but I doubt it. Its probably just surface rust
