Well, my truck might actually be going now so I ordered my Slutty Snatch and Panty Liner today. No more blown tcases for me!!! Once that`s here I just need to get it out to Scott`s for some much needed TLC!

I am always under the gun, what are you looking for moral support? LOL.......here it is, get your arse in gear!!
I bought 2 more XJ's today and dragged home a GC on the weekend, I guess I am going to a Chrysler wiring harness. I pulled my rear axle yesterday out and removed the gears in the preparation to move it to the Waggy rear, then I have to build a rear suspension, install the locker in the front axle and then set both them up. Take my transfer cases out, have the cut and weld the NP231 case for the doubler, make a new drive shaft and change a rear main. Oh and start my EXO.
I hope this is makies you feel not to far behind
Oh I guess this means I am sort of, tentatively, maybe committing to Rausch.

totally off topic

Hi Dwayne, Im Mike, I was talking to Marek last week, I bought a diesel 05 excursion in january and he was mentioning that you went to get the "yellow sticker" for towing, and things worked out rather well. Love my X, its got the 6.0L. couple years after international fixed the fueling problem they had. Good so far. Hauls my hockey team worth of kids. and still gets better mileage than my V8 CJ7

I am progressing along my list, trailer is now ready to roll, all fixed with a proper spare that fits lol. Ssmi has a crack in the t-case, going to give that a going over see if I can repair or if not have to change the gears out. Drained the water out of rear axle with a bit of oil, may be doing some bearings soon lol. bead locks are getting ready to go in, clutch cable replaced.. hopefully another couple good days at her, and I will be good to go :)

I'm getting there too, axles should be going under the jeep in a week, week and a half. I've had to widen my trailer - that's been a pain in the rear but is 2nd in priority. I'll finish the trailer once I finish my axle install.

Steve you should arrange for someone to drive your shiat down, then you can put a harness on and spend the 7 hour drive under the truck on the trailer lol, might as well start planning for that now ;)

So, for the people that have been there before. Tim & I will be arriving Thursday during the day some time and are just wondering what we need to do/see to get to the camping area? If it's after hours because of unforseen circumstances, can we still get in?

When you get htere, go through the gate, past the office to the back. You will see a bunch of logs laying on the ground blocking off a camping area. Trucks and campers do not go past the logs, only tents as it is only back filled. Lat time I showed up around 2 in the morning and did not have any problems.

Sounds good then. We are going to Vermont on the Monday, and leaving from there Thursday morning. I think it's going to be about a 10 drive from there so who knows what time we will roll in.

We always arrive after the park is closed. Steve lets them know we are coming. We normally take the camping spot immediately next to the entrance. It's about the only area that has decent tree coverage.

Tim and Terry in Vermont together?:rainbow::flipoff:

Yah, I knew I was walking in to that one. We are going to see James (remember the guy with the 70's Bronco?), do some wheeling there, then head down.
