Also where we camped for the Trip this year there was a hug pile left from a big group of j**ps that were there last weekend. Who knows, it was there Sunday, maight still be there.

I got some sod pallet's that I'm bring along. They make some nice TALL LARGE FIRE's. Colin & Winter changed their minds last nite, they will not be coming this weekend. Winter pick up my new front suspension kit yesterday, and he going to start removing my old suspension today, so he's anxious to get started on the new one. It should be finish by the first of Dec.
By the way, I'm selling my old superlift suspension which is not really old just a year old along with the superrunning steering system, also probably the Vortech Supercharger if anyone is interested.

Hi guys, Just got home last night from a work trip. I'll be arriving Friday morning around 10:00 to Truckhaven. I'm picking up my rig from from Winter's today. He just finished installing my new front bumper with a portable Warn winch and cradle which I can detach and use on the rear bumper if necesary. I can also remove it when I'm using it as a daily driver.
What CB channel will we be on. We can all meet around noon at the campground. Yahoo !

Tom,
Let's use Ch. 1.
I don't know if you saw in the thread, but we will be setting up camp on the left side of N. Marina drive where the paved streets branch off the "main" road. I think you have been to that area before with us, but I'm not positive.
See ya tommorrow!!!

Fakerwee busted a hub. Ka Blam!!
I scratched up the paint on grill and now have a new squeal from my steering.
Gerald's running boards and grill guard took a beating.
Ray (Bronco) blew a sector shaft seal spewing steering fluid everywhere. It happened in an off-camber situation and he was pouring gas out of the filler at the same time.
Gary (CJ-7) broke a hub or a locker
Jeff??
Isuzu Guy??
More teasers... Weather was awesome. High 80s during the day and 50's at night. Great campfires, conversations, and night runs!
Now... If you've already signed up for T-haven 2002 we'll see you soon. If not Sign up!

Had a GREAT!!!!! Time this weekend! Thank's Tom & Rick for letting me ride along in your rig's for the weekend. It really suck's when you don't have your own rig there to do it with you guy's, but just wait until Jan.
that will all change.
It was good seeing you again Gerald! Maybe you could fly out to Palm Spring's and we can pick you up for the Jan. run! Have a safe trip!

"Back from Afghanistan"
We had a good turn out for our impromptu get together at T-haven. Gerald was on his way through the area so we put together a group to show Gerald around the hills of Truckhaven.
The reason for the title "Back from Afghanistan" is that the terrain at T-haven looks just like the image we see coming back from Afghanistan complete with caves in the canyon walls.
Attending the run from this board were, Gerald, Paul Bredehoft, Bill Collins, Jefe, Fakerwee. We also had a few others along. Jeff's brother, and friends, Bill's friend Ray and his family and Ray's friend Gary.
Here is a link to my photos.

Jason (Isuzu) took a nice blow to his rocker panel, and used quite a bit of rubber, but now he understands the importance of a locker.

John (TJ) bent his front bumper, twice, and has a number of nice scratches everywhere.
