[quote=“monkey”]Does anyone know if the off-road trails at Guanxi are still open? Also, anyone have any directions or GPS coordinates to this place?
thanks![/quote]
Unfortunately, the excellent offorading trails no longer exist in their original form…The land has been taken over for development, and cops are awaiting all up and down provincial highway 3 just to do impromptu inspections on modified 4x4’s.
We’ve not really found a suitable replacement… :s
Thanks for the update MJB. That’s a real bummer - I wanted to take my Rodeo out to stretch its legs, so to speak. I suppose there’s always the tidal flats and pebble beaches at nearby Guanyin, but they don’t offer much of a challenge.

Darn. I thought they had moved onto other projects. Lately I’ve been seeing a lot more lifted 4x4’s than when I left. Maybe these guys are all doing the annual swap the wheels and suspension thing.

Could that be related anyhow to your current whereabouts?

Yes, could be. I think there is a 4WD area around here someplace, but I see a lot more downtown as well… a helluva lot more than in the first few months of the pogrom.
Hello all!
I’m new here and fairly new to Taiwan. I bought a 94 Jeep YJ about over a year ago when I moved to Taipei. It came equipped with a 5" +/- suspension lift and a set of 32" BFGs. However, I’ve never had any problems with the cops regarding wheel size. I just through on a set of stock wheels when it comes time for inspection.
Has anyone here ever been to Linko? The guys I ride with took me to a river bed there that was super rugged. I’m talking 30+" at some crossings. There’s a couple cool places in Bali also.

Sounds interesting - any pics of the places mentioned?
