Good Luck. Let me know if you find anything. Most of the places I use to go are subdivisions now.In Leonard off of Rochester road was a good spot, don't know if you can still get back there.

I have a 3inch body & 3 inch susp. 37s should fix no problem. I know someone in Dryden that has a set of 38x12.50 Super Swaper TSLs on white wagon wheels. I think he wants $650 or $600 for them they are in real good shape.

There use to be a place called the Mounds out by the flint area actually closer to Davison that we use to 4 wheel at. I use to take my 89 Bronco 2 out there but have not been there in a while but I have heard it is still open. Here is a web site link and remember DON'T TEAR IT UP!!!!!!!! http://ai.eecs.umich.edu/~mirror/Areas/Mounds.html
