Copper Ridge : 7 OCT 2007

[gCracker]

you may have issues finding a safe place to bolt it to on the front due to the unibody design.. do some research there are alot of articles online about how to mount hooks to a Cherokee.

This event was planned and listed as being sponsored by WNYOffroad without proper authority or permission from the WNYOffroad officers. Therefore, this event is not (nor ever was) sponsored by WNYOffroad despite the original post. I take responsibility for this mix up, but would like to assure everyone that this event will still take place as Copper Ridge is excited to host Jeeps and 4x4s on October 7. The original post has been updated to reflect this.

Thanks,
Jared

You\'re right. I found a tow hook at Advance Auto online for $9.99. There\'s really no excuse NOT to have one at that price. I\'m picking one up tonight.

If I mount that up under the front should I get another one for the rear? Or is the factory hitch a legit point to rely on?

The trailer hitch can be used if you have a receiver with a shackle or tow hook. The hitch ball should never be used as a tow point, major safety problem.

I moved the \"reciever hitch tow point\" to the General Tech. Please discuss this topic more there and leave us going on the trip for here.

Count me in also.   If there is interest in TMN members chipping in for a pack of dogs, etc. I have a small grill I can bring. Anyone interested can just post here. I\'ll follow up as the event nears.

I\'d be willing to chip in. Me and my wife. Let me know if you want cash or just bring an ingredient. (Dogs, Burgers, etc.)

I know last trip I got the 32 hamberger patties for $11 at Walmart. Pretty good for the cost.

patties have chicken lips in them.  100% all beef is the way to go.

[CoraC143]

Just take his word for it. You don't want to know the details. Only buy it if it says  100% beef.

[thejeepbuilder]

I think I\'ll take the \"chicken lips\" over MRE\'s any day!!  You know how our \"favorite uncle\" spares no expense...

  Seriously though, is there any other interest in my bringing a grill or should I just plan on grabbing something there?

Ready to get wet on Sunday?

I hope the \"scattered\" showers scatter away from there.

We(Sara, Abby & I) are planning on going.  We will plan on joining the convoy on the south side of the Geneseo 390 exit.

gCracker,

Want to have a mini convoy to geneseo? I was planning the same thing. If not, I\'ll just see you there

Glen- thanks for the offer, but I think it may just be best to meet over at Geneseo, just not worth making 2 stops.  See ya in Geneseo.
