anytime this weekend is good for me.

I'm ready for Fudd's too

 

[Mike 92 XLT]

Hmmm, this weekend looks bad for me, but next weekend should work. Saturday night for the car show? And Tim, did your original engine finally die?

[Jefe]

Next weekend (the 22nd) is the AZ run, so I'll be out of town

The orignal engine never died but I stopped trusting it after 268k and it was making some pretty strange noises. It's still my beater/hunting/fishing/hauling and eventaully 4x4 vehicle so it has to be reliable and the engine was a good first start before it's on 35's and too tall for the average engine hoist.

Hey Joe ...

Tomorrow's not looking good. The fiance ones spend some time together. We'll have plan another day hopefully on a weekend. The next month is gonna be tough to get away, but I should be able to. Joe did your truck make it up the very begining (or end I guess) of that trail. I didn't feel like pushing my luck there last time with knowing a jeep broke something going up. and you took of your rear sway bar right?

No worries, we'll get out there again soon, maybe Jefe and brother can make it with their group. I try to go out there or somewhere local at least once a month.

I really want to go to Miller Jeep Trail after the snow melts.

I made it up that first section with only a little trouble. And my boss's Cherokee did it as well. But, doing it right after it rains is a real challenge. I took my rear sway off when I put on the Emu springs, and I always take the front off to help a little.

Jefe and I both have work tomorrow. At least, I know I have a full day. . .gotta get a job out tomorrow. But we were going to try to go this week (infamous meeting of the midnight offroading club)

What time were you planning on going?

So do I. Heck. . why wait for the snow to melt. . it's more fun that way

 

[jobunn]

I won't be going today but let me know when you and Jefe will be going next, I wanna join.

And Jefe, if you lead at Miller or Yellowjacket in the snow I'll follow.

My first time on Lockwood we had no idea where Miller Jeep trail was but wanted to find it. There was about 2" of melting snow on the trail in some spots. . that was exciting:

We never made it since my friend was open front and rear at the time, and even I was strugling in the mud with the rear locked.

I'd love to do that again. . more equipt. I just need to fix my front locker first.

Maybe the 22nd? Or maybe we'll have to start up the Midnight 4wheelers again and initiate a few new members.

Hey guys!

I'd love to do some more whell'n with you guys. I'm gonna do some work on the "ex" this weekend. Plugs, oil, gonna put tow hook on the back off a sport. and also remove the rear sway bar. Also may remove tupperware.

Hey what size are the wing nuts you have on the front sway bar links? Thats what you guys have done right? and do you ever have a problem with the cv's binding? Original I had my t-bar about 1/2" higher but they binded really bad so I brought them back down.

This month will be diffcult for me to get away next month will be no go at all because I'll be getting married first weekend of april and be on my Honeymoon the following two weekends.

Congrats on the big day.

I have done nothing to my front sways, yet. I have just gotten good at taking them off and on.

My CV's rarely bind, only at full lock on pavement, sometimes. My tbars are up about 1.5".

Hey folks,

I just moved back to SD and I am wondering if there is a local club or what the deal is down here. I am looking for some people to go wheeling with.

Thanks
