If it is on the front page and you don't want it there.... let me know

This is definitely going to be a fun day!! I am for sure going at least for most of the day so i am very happy about that!
And my cousin is putting in his engine this weekend. Got another tag along most likely- a toy on 38's so could be interesting!

 

[Andy96XLT]

my 95% yes has just gone to like a 50%. I'll let ya know as it gets closer though

 

[Andy96XLT]

i'm a no go, sorry, something very important came up

 

[Spas]

Well that sucks Andy Good luck with whatever it is...


I posted this on our Get-bent offroad board, but it's worth reposting here, too:

"I've got my insane best bud and his little brother coming up with his Tube Yota, as well as a handful of the Maryland Creepers on May 3rd now For those who haven't seen it yet, RC has a concrete course for their RcRocks tournaments.. and the Creepers crew wants to get in some practice before the first comp of the year on the 10th. So we get to watch them pull some crazy stunts in the morning if you guys want to Brenn says they might be convinced to hit some of the harder trails with us in the afternoon. This is shaping up to be one seriously kickass run!!!"

I also posted a thread on the Rough Rangers... so far no takers, but if Splash and Brokin can make it then we're gonna have a REALLY good time, lol.


Anybody else excited yet?

Hrmm... seems like you're not the only one! I need to get my truck back on the road by Sunday night so I can test it local next week... And Sunday is in 4 days!

 

[sn0border88]

A billion little things, I have a billion big things.

I need:

Install my highsteer kit, make the drag link and tie rod and pray I run into no problems.

Install 2 more beadlocks and get my spare tire swapped with another one

Make my anti wrap bar, mounts, ect.

Plate and reinforce my new shackle hangers and x-member

re wire my lights, tranny temp and starter

install my 9" pinion guard

swap yokes on my d44

pop the old joints out of 2 sets of shafts and swap them with the chevy outer stubs

and either fix both front door locks or just swap new ones in from the yard (im leaning towards new ones)

And im going to be in harrisburg all weekend. You have no excuse not to make it. :

i gotta do my fuel filter,today,i was driving up to my ex's house to see the kids,i didnt even make it there,truck died right on rt.73 in blue bell...it was acting up,rpms were dropping,if it hit the gas it would just about stall,and then it did stall,and i tried starting it back up would run for 2 seconds and shut off..sat on the side of the road and waited for my friend with his x to pull me back 2 my house,im almost positive its the fuel filter,it has 2 be a few others said the same thing,i got gas at a bp amoco and thats when it all started (on friday),never again will i goto bp amoco,so i eventually got it up to a sunoco and put 50.00 or 93 in it and it ran fine,and now today it started up again,bp amoco either had bad gas,or maybe cause i never let my gas get that,the filter got clogged from all the dirt maybe??and i gotta do my ball joints

I doubt it was the gas, BP is the best you can get, at least around where I am haha. My fuel pump just went last week. I'll keep my fingers crossed its not that for you though!

 

[924dr4x4]

well i did my fuel filter,drained the gas out from bp and sunoco,went back to sunoco and added 80.00 or 91 which was like 3.59 i think,it fixed the problem,and then after that i noticed my radiator had a crack in it and actually split open,i put in a new radiator yesterday,so im all set,unless something else has 2 be fixed,but as far as running condition,its all good,,any1 think i can fit 32x11.50x15 without a lift??

They're gonna rub like hell but it's feasible...


On a dysphoric note, I don't think either of my Jeep buddies is going to make it now. It seems they chickened out after seeing pictures of the trails that I want to try. I'm extremely disappointed in both of them.. apparently they very much "Talk the talk" but don't walk the walk. Fawkin' Jeepers, what are ya gonna do The Creepers are still coming out in full force, however, as is Brokin from the Rough Rangers!!

 

[sn0border88]

My friend with the ranger w 60/3 link is coming as well.

Do we want to plan out some kind of foodage? It would be feasible since there are so many people coming.

Ex: Ill bring 2 cases of soda, 2 bags of chips and 2 packs of hotdog rolls plus fixins.

 

[IZwack]

I'll be there - let me know what I need to bring to help with the food situation.
