Fixed it! Phew, I got it fixed today. I really did not want to tear the whole dash apart so I decided to just unscrew the steering wheel cover and look at the ignition switch. Once I got it separated, I immediately noticed a wiring harness that was not connected. The ignition switch had the...

I really hope someone can help me out. I just fixed the dim light problem on my odometer and put everything back together. When I went to start the Ex, everything powered up but when I turn the key to the start position, I get nothing except the theft light starts blinking quickly. It was...

Just wanted to update those who have this problem. I was able to get most of one bottle (~3 oz.) of friction modifier into the rear diff and drove it for about 200 miles. I am extremely happy to report that the noise and vibration is almost completely gone. I still feel/hear it a little but...

Some more pics The rear wheel well. The front tire Another side shot

Well, I've had my 02 Ex since February and finally got some new shoes. I went with 265/75R16 Nitto Terra Grapplers. I gotta say they look awesome. I took some pictures but I have never tried to link pictures before so I hope they show up. Future plans include coil spacers from...

Another thing I failed to mention...originally I was sure it was the front end because the problem was mainly during turning. Once the mechanic told me it was in the rear diff I paid more attention while driving and it does actually seem to be coming from the rear. Just an observation.

Possible cause/solution found Well today I finally made it a repair shop. They inspected the front end and told me there wasn't anything obvious wrong but they definitely could feel/hear the rumbling/grinding noise. So they called their national service center to check for a tech service...

I've got an 02 XLT V8 that is doing the exact same thing. I tried the brown wire mod to see if that would make a difference and it didn't. To me it seems like the 4x4 is engaged based on the sound and the feel of the vibration, but I haven't had a chance to take it to a shop to have someone...

26 hours and counting!! Well, we'll be leaving for Moab at around 4 AM Friday morning so that we can make the Friday runs. We'll probably just pull into City Market parking lot and unload there. Anyone who is going to be there already, watch for a white F350 dully with a cab over camper...

One week from this very moment we will be gathering at the City Market parking lot. Can't wait to see everyone. :D

I would definitely be interested in more challenging trails for Saturday. We'll have to see how many super stockers show up and who is interested in doing what. BTW my brother and I will be in one vehicle instead of two. My brother picked up a 93 sport a couple of months ago, 5 speed...

Dinner The Climb Naked crew will be there for dinner - party of 3.

I just made reservations at Canyonlands. I noticed that they do have cabins available with A/C for those of you who are concerned with creature comforts. It also said that they will sleep up to six people and they only cost $35/night. Sounds cheaper than a hotel to me. Only 234 days to go. :D

Ready and waiting!! I just signed up and it looks like both me and my brother will be coming. Not sure yet if we will be in two vehicles or one, will just have to wait and see. We will definitely be running the stock/slightly modified category trails. This ought to be a great gathering...

I'm in if you guys want to meet sometime and form a Utah club. I live in Clinton (near Layton) but I would be willing to travel a little to meet everyone. I think a Saturday afternoon would be best, but I am pretty flexible.

I'm with Scott. If the Moab trip ends up being in June I will be forced to choose between Moab or Colorado. If we do Moab in early May I will be able to do both. Keep the votes coming.

Earlier is better in my opinion. From my own experience, if you go to Moab when it is hot and you think you might have overheating problems, you will most likely overheat. I never had a lick of trouble with the BII overheating until going to Moab. I started to overheat on the first trail we...

Dates I'll throw my vote in for the 23-24 dates.

Count me and my brother in. We did CCR 2001 and it was awesome. We were in a stock Ex and we had a blast. Can't wait. :D

Hey fellow troop, I actually tried to use AAA to ship a truck from Arkansas to Nevada. I waited for over 30 days for them to just schedule a date to pick up the truck and they never did. I was able to get my money back and went to Dependable Auto Shippers. I will just say that they were...

I voted for May 21-23. I may be deployed to Iraq in March and will return at the end of April so May is the only month that will work for me.

I am looking at getting a used AWD car to use as a commuter to and from work (drive appox. 65 miles each way). I have done a little research on AWD cars, but really I am not all that familar with what is available. I have currently looked at the subaru outback and the volvo v70. What else is...

My brother overfilled his tranny and it was gone in a week. He explained what it does but I can't remember now. If you want more detailed info on overfilling I will ask him.

Unfortunately I must bow out of the trip. :( My boss (uncle sam) has decided he needs my services. I hope you guys have a great time. Take lots of pics and lets see some good write-ups when you get back. There is already talk of a spring Moab run so I will start planning for that. Keep the...

I am definitely interested. I just cancelled out of the fall run so I need to make it up. Spring would be great.

My brother and I should get to Moab around noon on Friday and we are staying at the Canyonlands. I got the back half of my lift on last night. I will finish it on Saturday. Can't wait. Depending on what runs we end up doing, I may see if I can ride with one of the Big Dawgs for a day. I...

Sound-off I am still planning to come. Leaving Thursday night, arriving Friday. I just bought my coil spacers from Jet Ski Puller and ordered my AAL from good ol' JCWhitney. Should have everything sometime next week. Can't wait to see everyone and hit the trails.:D What is everyone else...

Thanks to everyone who has replied so far. I was starting to lean towards the BL because of the alignment issues with the coil spacers. I think that eventually I will do both to achieve the amount of lift I am looking for. I guess for now I will have to decide if I want to pay for an...

I am going to give my BII a little height before heading to Moab in October. My question is do I go with a 2" PA body lift or should I get the 1.5" coil spacer? Has anyone had any experience with the coil spacer? I have owned a vehicle with a BL before and liked it for the most part. I...

Back in the running Well, I just found out today that I will not have to deploy to the Middle East in October so I'm in. My brother a I will be bringing my BII. Since last year I found out that I have a limited slip rear so I think I can handle the super stock class. Can't wait to see...

Well, it looks like I will not be able to make it this year. I have been on active duty with the Nevada Air National Guard since April and I am being sent to the middle east in October. Total bummer. I guess I will have to wait until next year.

I'll be there You can count on Climbnkd 1 and 2 being there.

Zuk, I already have plans for Sunday, so I only have Saturaday free. If you can't make it Saturday don't sweat it. If the weather is good I'm sure some other people will be there. Hope to see you.

I am going to plan on tackling the Den on Saturday Feb 22 if anyone is still interested (can someone change the date on the thread subject line?). Hope that some more people will make it. Same time and place to meet (10 am at Whataburger, Ingram Mall). Hope to see you there.

Hey Zukster I went out to the Whataburger around 10 and nobody showed, I guess the weather turned them off. I did drive over to the dens to see what it looks like. There is quite a bit of standing water. Since I am just a stocker I decided to wait until another date to try the Dens. I am...

I hope that the threat of a little moisture isn't going to keep anyone from coming. I am planning to meet at the place mentioned above where the other off roading group is meeting at 10 am. If nobody else shows I will try to get in with them. Hopefully some Xs from the board will be there and...

Thanks Alec. I hope that you can make it. I haven't really been offroading since Moab so I'm really itching to go. Should be a lot of fun. :D

I'm driving a 1989 Bronco II Eddie Bauer, 5 speed, 3.73 gears with LS rear. I am basically a stock vehicle but I have proved myself at Moab. Can't wait! Anyone know if TwoTone is going to make it?

Devil's Den Feb 22 Well it looks like a couple of people want to meet this Saturday (Feb 8) for a run at Devil's Den in San Antonio. Since I am not familiar with the San Antonio area I'm not sure where we should meet. Someone who is more familiar should determine a good meeting place. I was...

Kris, You have email.
