Access-4-All Vehicle
The Northeast Association of 4WD Clubs is a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting and promoting legal and environmentally responsible off-highway vehicle recreation, while maintaining a harmonious relationship between OHV enthusiasts and landowners. We accomplish this through supporting and educating government agencies, our own member clubs, private landowners, and the general public.
Recently the Association released details of the launch of their signature Access-4-All Program. The program will help provide access to those who might not be able to access the outdoors with the help of a 4WD vehicle. The Association has been working on a Jeep Cherokee to make the necessary modifications in order to bring it to events and eventually use it for the intended purpose of bringing people into the back country.
Over the past year the Access-4-All Vehicle, with the help of volunteers and most importantly Bay State Off Road in Middleboro MA, has received a complete mechanical upgrade, a lift kit (donated by Domenic's Auto and Jeep in Hampstead NH), a front backbone system installed, and new differential covers. The next phase of the build will be held on April 5th from 10am to 4pm at Bay State Off Road, 15R Spruce Street, Unit #5 Middleboro, MA 02346. The goal is to install the TC drop, SYE and drive shaft, frame stiffeners, trim fenders, and plan the next steps.
As funds and materials become available, our goals for the vehicle will be to install new gears and lockers in the axles, add body protection and skids, and install a roll cage and a front winch.
