Whispering Pines March 8th

[Gramps]

I had a great time yesterday and I learned a lot.

1. I learned that Hi Lift Jacks have uses other than just lifting a vehicle.
2. Rubicons are good trail vehicles right off the dealers lot.
3. CJ7\'s can climb trees (Right Paul).
4. And if there is no snow you can get past the  hedge row in less than 2 hours at Whispering Pines.


My computer at home is too old to down load pictures so I will have to wait until tomorrow at work to see them all. I think Scott took some pictures too. Is he planning on downloading them?

Looks like it was a little slick.

Yesterday was a blast! This was a first for me but it wont be the last. I need to thank everyone for a great day!
I want to drive the Jeep to work but theres more mud on the inside than the outside.

Great way to break in a new Jeep!

- didn\'t buy it to go to Wegmans

almost, but i didn\'t, means i know my cj well

mine is made up of lots of worn out suspention parts... budget built with lots of hand me downs...

It was definatly fun, and thanks paul!

but I want a pickup to wheel, thats all, sorry smike lol

i think you should go look at keiths yota... sounds like if it runs its got potential for a cheap wheeler.  we dont have any active yota wheelers in the club.  id go for it.  let me know if need any help.

meaning don\'t push the clutch in, haha

Yeah I should check it out, I\'ve been reasearching a bit.  The allpro sas kit is kind of pricey, but it does come with everything thats needed except the axle.

[smichaelR22]

well you could build it and wheel it at the pines and get a feel for it before you dump money into a SAS.  or just go till she blows at RC.  its a yota, it might suprise us

[MrMindless]

I\'ve seen Yota IFS live wheeled with 34x10.5 LTBs, for what it\'s worth.

[smichaelR22]

now is that wheeling it like a jeep like the rest of us, or wheeling it like a yota guy wheels his yota?

[MrMindless]

Let me rank that.....

CJ on 35s not breaking things
TJ on 35s not breaking things
CJ on 35s breaking things
*
60idus
breaking 35sp chromo 60 parts
longfields still live here
bone stock Yota on 38s in double low WOT mashing into things
space shuttle launch



* is where the IFS Toy was still happy.  In double low of course.  with a non-broken throttle.

[MrMindless]

Eric, if you want something already built.....

I don\'t know what your budget is but this looks really nice.

No relation, saw it on another board.
