    Depends on what you consider a campsite lol. Lots of places you can drive your truck in the woods and camp wherever, may not be a campsite or legal.. otherwise like Zoey’s Taco said head north, or into PA. I work and live in Bergen as well but am about to move to the Hudson valley.

    Northeast IFS Skid FS

    Looking to sell this prototype IFS skid I made for my truck so I can buy more metal and create other iterations of skids. I only wheeled with this twice but did take some hits. 3/16 steel, oil filter trap door, and diff drop bump out. (should work with a diff drop but haven't tested it)...

    DIY Skid Plate

    UPDATE After putting this thing through the ringer, I decided to change it up a little. I made the rear mounts shorter and cut out a diff bump out. I did this for a couple reasons. 1) I did not like the slope of the skid plate. With 2.5 and 1.25 offsets for the risers you clear the diff well but...
