We have our own fireman in JKL going with us tomorrow so we're good to go. I'll post up a brush fire report when I get back from the ride.

Can't make this ride. that sounds like a good price for air lockers. I will prob go with detoits f/r . I have enough issues at pres time for air lockers. Installing elec fan now hope this will free up some gas milage. Don't forget to check on us down here in the deep south when you move north of the Grit Line. ( they don't serve grits in Jersey)

I wish I could make it, Jeep has been at the dealer for 2 weeks due to the broken axle. The rear locker has been acting up but they cant figure out the problem so they brought in a Jeep engineer today.

Like i said before, I may be a little late due to a mandatory staff meeting but i'll be there. I will be on cb channel 14 and try to raise one of you as i get closer. Wonder what the range of that little cb is anyway.

Make sure you guys post pics when you get back! I ended up starting my u-joint replacement at 8, but it turns out that Pep-boys gave me the WRONG u-joint yesterday, so I had to go return it, etc, etc, ended up being 1030 before I was done, so there was no way I would've made it in time. Hope it was good!

I need to learn to be nice to the skinny pedal.
