Welcome Kzone!

After you do the Club Member drive, you must check if all equipment are complaint with Almost4x4 requirements. If so, you will be upgraded on the system to newbie (a one star rank), that allows you to join newbie drives (when trip is open to register).

If you want to be upgraded right after the CM drive, get all your tools ready for the day of the drive and a Marshal will check it after the drive.
Thanks! I couldn't reply to the thread below on the newbie tools, is it locked? Need help on the following, do you have any pics or links to some samples? :

- Rated Hook
- Base plate for jacking vehicle
- Mechanical tools

(not sure if it's my browse but I cant see any pics in the opening post)

Sorry for the noob questions guys.. thanks so much!!

Thanks! very useful! I know the club dont' usually recommend specifics but are there any shops or brands to be avoided due to low quality products? Eg for the Jacks and tools, can I just walk around DM and get the items that looks similar to the pictures in the tools thread or are there certain makes that are not recommended?

Btw, is there a way to enable private messages in this forum?

Hello!

Where would one get the base plate for the jacking vehicle (a solid piece of wood)?

In any carpenter's workshop, it costs around 30 dhs or might get it for free


For example this place :

Al Ruwais Building Materials
Al MuqtaAl Muqta 1 - Umm Al Quwain

All the details regarding the drive will be disclosed in private a day in advance giving all members ample time to plan their drive day.

Can't wait - see you in the sand!
