Let get a Gilmer run scheduled for early April. Let the voting begin:

Barnwell Mountain (Gilmer Texas)

I should be done with my truck by then :)

Sounds like a great idea! Maybe BJ's trail rig will be done, and who knows, maybe mine will be done too if I can manage to fork out the $$$$
 






Well, I'm on call at work for the week April 5th-11th.
So I'm open for the following weekends:
April 3rd-4th
April 17th-18th
April 24th-25th
 






I hope my rig will be ready by then .....
Sux to just look at it!!
 






I think I could be ready to roll for April 3rd weekend, or we can push it back to April 17th and 18th.

Those are my votes. I am dying to get out wheeling.
 






You know me man, pick a weekend :)
 






i'll go. i should have the xj ready by then. maybe this time, i get to really 4x4. :)
 






Okay I'll take a stab, without going to Mapquest, how far from So Cal would this be? I assume a long ass way!!

Brian what the heck are you doing to your trail rig now?

Any of you demon guys hitting Moab?
 






My dad is getting married on the 17th, so I vote for any other weekend.
 






im off 10-11

i have to work 3-4 and 17-18. gotta save vacation time for real vacation this summer, so i can only go 10-11 or 24-25.
 






Well, right now the trail rig has a fullsize Dana 44 TTB under it off of a 1988 Bronco.

I will be pulling this axle back off and putting the Dana 44 outers on my dana 35 being that it is already geared and locked. The shafts in the 2 axles are the same strength so I will just get rid of the weak link on the 35 and run the Dana 44 brakes, bearings, and hubs.
 






when is the show, the 13th next month? hell, have a "post show work on brian's ****" day on sunday. :)
 






Thats what I am screaming. I am down with that. I have alot on my plate, plus I have BJ points explorer over here that needs some odds and ends done. You are more than Welcome to stay after North Central Ford show.
 






ive got an air matress and a sleeping bag. tell jello to by me a 6pak and we're all good for sunday too. :)
 






Bring it! Saturday I was planning on having folks back at my casa. Maybe hit a TGI Fridays after the show for some adult beverages and then come back to my casa. It could be a helluva time for all.

We need more votes from the Texas folks :)
 






Sounds like a plan is being created. Now I just need to go get that Bronco II to start building.
 






you better get that Bronco II .......
 






It looks as if the 24th and the 25th of april would get a couple more folks out there. Plus for those of us with no axles under our explorers it would give us 2 good months to get things working.

Any other votes? SVO will be there he is just working on a top secret project and doesnt have time to be on the net right now.

Votes?
 






24-25 would be perfect for me. still need to do a few things to mine along with more sawzall modifications. wont have the family cage finished by then because the die is on backorder. :(
