Membership Information
Requirements to join East Carolina Jeep & 4x4 Club:
(1) You MUST have AT LEAST one SOLID hook-up point at EACH end of your viehicle to hook to in case you become stuck and we need to pull you out. After market Hooks are available, and are very cheap. We can not hook up a Snatch-strap by wrapping it around the frame or bumper, it will cut the strap and they are costly.
(2) NO CHAINS are to be used to recover any vehicle. NO EXEPTIONS. Chains are too unpredictable and therefore dangerous!
(3) If you have any likely potential problems (ie:weak u-joints, fan belt, hoses,etc) bring the neccessary item(s) to fix it. Spare fluids and tools are helpful. Preventive maintenance is better!
(4) Everyone must agree to NOT leave any person/vehicle if stuck/stranded. We go out together, we return together.
RECOMMENDED
(5) Basic Tool Kit. You can't always rely on the other person. Spare tire. Trash Bags. First Aid Kit. Fire Extinguisher. Recovery Equipment. Duct Tape. Wet Weather Gear. Camera. BUG SPRAY!! CB Radio.
This may sound like a lot of rules but provides some assurance of a great time.
