i told her butt to bring it over.... so we can get it fixed so they can go....

heck, we could do a driveby and fix it in 30 mins, its just the shortside shaft... lol,

of course for mobile service the rates go up, with current mobile equipment repair rates at 113/hour, which would be 56.50, that equals out to approximately 5 lengthwise jugs...

Air tank
Jumper cables
Tire plug kit

I haven't fixed the motor in the buggy yet.....damn I'm getting lazy. I have to work Sat. Would love to run that upper section of Scrambler again, but not this trip. If you're running Scrambler on Sun, and someone has an empty seat, there is a slight possibility I could come for the day.

[jchoward]

Count me in for Saturday and Sunday!

[Bigfoot]

[Loki XJ]

Well. I have a 50% chance of working this weekend, do I work the OT/DT or do I find an excuse to make calico?

Hey guys,

New member here. The old man and I want to come on Sunday to support the cause.

What time on Sunday are you guys running the trails? Where to meet? And what trails are going to be first?

I'm bringing a video camera and riding passenger in the old man's 4 door Rubicon.

[Franeebeth]

Nice!!! So you can add JeepDeere and I for a yes, no trailer though we will rough it for the night. See ya'll Saturday!!!!

[Lake_v2]

me and becca may be heading out sat morning as well now, ran into some issues with the jeep that have to be fixed today/tonight.

last night mounted limit straps, and moved rear axle back 1", also mounted cold air intake.

found late last night that i have bad balljoint on front axle and that i need to lower the tcase by about an inch.

so today after i get off work, have to tear apart one side of front axle and change balljoints, then get loaded up to get to calico. hopefully i ate my wheaties this morning and can get it done in a timely manner.

[Dirty LJ]

Ruth and I are thinking about heading out tonight. Is anyone else coming out?

If not we will go in the morning with everybody else.

[munepit]

Have fun Guys!!!

On Saturday, they will be running the easier trails, Doran/Odessa Loop. On sunday, we will be running the difficult stuff, Scrambler Canyon/Gatekeeper. If you are going on Sunday's run, you should get some awesome Vid. We will be on CB channel 4
