still waiting on my front DS... if I dont get it by tonight Im out.. need to get it on and swap yokes on both ends..

[smichaelR22]

where did you take it?  Fleet pride usually has stock stuff in and out in less than 6 hours, ready after lunch if you drop it off early.

[rejeep]

ordered a CV shaft from Woods.. not a simple bolt in either..
Tcase and diff yoke change for upgraded hardware.

[smichaelR22]

ahh, i see.  Fleet pride did take 1.5 days when had a 1350 custom CV shaft made for my front from scratch along with the 1350 reg shaft for the rear.  530$ brand new ready for install both.

[rejeep]

Thats about what I spent on my shafts as well...
and as i mentioned in my for sale post.. I prob could have not touched the rear shaft... but i like shiny parts..

For anyone coming down Rt-31...

There is a main bridge closed just before Rt-14 in the V/Lyons.  My suggestion is to go right at the closed bridge (Leach Rd) and follow that south over the RR tracks and around the bend.  After the bend, turn left to continue on Leach Rd until you get to the first stop sign (Alloway Rd).  Turn left and continue until you get to Rt-14 again.  Go across Rt-14 and continue on Sohn Alloway Rd.  The next right turn should be Thompson Station Rd.  Take that to the end and turn right again onto PreEmption Rd and south to WP.  It sounds a lot harder than it is.

Here is a Google map link for a visual.

Have a great time!

Just checking if anyone is planning on meeting at Sunoco Leigh St Rd @ 390/Thruway?  I\'m still planning on being there at 8AM and leaving by 8:15 to be at WP at 9AM.

Does the B&N crew have the same time table?

[rejeep]

My shaft should be here today.. (fingers crossed)

[hawker]

I will meet everyone at B&N.  I will need to return around lunch, but should get some good mud, pinstripes, and grins by then!

I\'m itching to go, but it\'s up to the wife. My only concern is I\'ve never been there. Is it stock friendly? I was going to put the 31\" BFG a/t\'s from the Tahoe to the pickup and bring that.

I could just imagine \"little\" Jeeps trying to pull out the Tahoe if it got stuck.

[carchameleon]

yes, the b&n crew has the same timetable.  

it is stocker friendly, do you have tow hooks?
