Anti-Valentines Snow Run 2/13 in Weare, NH

[lobsterdmb]

Now that it's getting cold and we had our first snow storm of the year, it's time to get together for another run at my place. For those of you who haven't been up here yet, it is 54 wooded acres with 3 cut trails and multiple large obstacles. Warning: Body Damage is likely. Ask anyone who has been here before. If you don't want to wheel, you are more than welcome to come out and watch. All the trails are only a short walk from the house.

To keep this event interesting, we will make it pot-luck. Entrance fee is food to be shared at the end of a day of wheeling. I will supply some burgers and dogs. We can hang out afterwards if anyone wants and watch some wheeling videos (KOH 2008, KOH 2009, etc...).

Start time will be approximately 11am. Post up if you are interested or planning on coming. I will send out PM's with the address to everyone coming about a week prior to the event. Now let's go wheeling!!!

[Hackmeister]

hell yeah! i'm there

[5spd_xj]

awesome!! I'd like this I think :)

And Kyle... bring yer board, Crotched is about half an hour from Weare and there's a Midnight madness that night! We're gonna have ourselves one long, AWESOME day :D

Thanks for opening up your place to the club John and Melissa. very generous offer as always. It's appreciated :thumbup:

[Hackmeister]

oh awesome, I still haven't been to Crotched. we're going to need lots of coffee

[cmelo]

Very awesome:guitar:

[redneckboarder]

IN!! ill be bringing my board too

[masswrecker]

im in i missed wheelin your place last time

[kastein]

Count me in, probably won't be wheeling unless I can find a way to avoid body damage but I'll show up, act like an idiot, and hang out any day :thumbup:

Is this BYOB? I have a mass quantity of beer I can bring, as usual - unless I shouldn't.

[MoparManiac]

I should be there.

[foxwar71]

SNOW RUNS UP BUGGY ROCKS!!! im soo there!!!

[5spd_xj]

Count me in, probably won't be wheeling unless I can find a way to avoid body damage.

one day you'll look back at this post and think to yourself, "Oh, those were the days..."



:D

[themangeraaad]

if I can get bumpers by then I will be there to wheel (should have a spare by then), just need the recovery points. If I can't get the recovery points I will be there to watch!

If I can make it down some trails with 33x12.50 AT's on 3.5" lift, body damage is welcome :D If that isn't enough to get me down the trails I will have to wait for another time. I will be sure I am painted by then so I can leave with the 'bleeding Jeep'

[ROBZ95Xj]

Warning: Body Damage is GARENTEED!

fixed:D im in, no wheelin for me as blue jeep will be no more at that point

[5spd_xj]

Rob, I just love your spelling :D

[ROBZ95Xj]

Rob, I just love your spelling :D

aww shucks

[billyjp2]

i'll be there, unsure about wheelin.

[kastein]

one day you'll look back at this post and think to yourself, "Oh, those were the days..."



:D
I wouldn't be surprised. Not in this Jeep though! :shocked:

I did swear it was never going bigger than 32s, and dammit treadwright was out of 32s when I ordered today, so it looks like 285/75r16s are on the fedex truck... they round down to 32 I guess :eyes:

Sad thing is, they were cheaper than 32s from a "real" manufacturer by a long shot, and price is what drives a lot of my jeep decisions right now.

You'll make it... but the slick snow will keep things interesting :viking:

Of course it's BYOB... no campfire this time though. Haven't you learned by now that my favorite thing to do after a day of wheeling is hang out and drink some beer :jester:

[jbcherokee]

Lobster,

Rob,

I got a 99 sport with a 4.5" on 32" BFG all terrains, but no rock sliders or any armor actually. Any trails I could handle with a little less body damage? (Plus its my DD so if i break it i am walking home so keep that in mind)

with the snow it will be very hard to avoid body damage at Lobsterville

[mini=man]

Some how I managed no body damage last time but only because of my sliders. If you're not open to damage I wouldn't suggest running.
I might be able to come, but I won't be wheeling. If someone has a passenger seat open that day I'll be more then happy to keep it warm for ya ;).

[themangeraaad]

hmmmm, so my previous comment about 3.5" and 33's where I don't care about damage... I also dont have sliders/armor... woudl I end up with alot of unibody/rocker/door damage or is it mostly sliding into stuff (aka body damage) to be worried about?

If it's body damage, I am fine with that. If it's unibody, etc... I think I would prefer to armor my unibody/rails before tweaking them too bad, so if there is a high likelyhood of that type of damage I may reconsider throwing myself out there... though I will be there regardless :) and if I get there and see people wheeling there is an 88.935% chance taht I will say "screw it, I'm bringing my rig out to play" even if unibody damage is likely :laugh:

[RCman]

I don't how this slipped past me the last three days, but we'll be there!
Warning: Body Damage is GARENTEED!fixed:D You got that right!
im in, no wheelin for me as blue jeep will be no more at that point:(
with the snow it will be very hard to avoid body damage at LobstervilleI think you had it right with the fixing John's words (other than the spelling :spin1: ). With snow it is going to be pretty much a given those trails are narrow.

[Begster]

I'll most likely be there. Depending on how busy I am, it could possibly be with my Jeep. (but not likely, and I'm not make ANY promises)

[5spd_xj]

Body damage would be the biggest worry as the trails are tight in some spots and will be slick. Most of the damage has been glass or putting the body into a tree.

[lobsterdmb]

I don't how this slipped past me the last three days, but we'll be there!


Will your jeep be ready to wheel by then?

[5spd_xj]

Nope. He'll give you some ridiculous excuse about some super spiffy front axle shafts or some crap...

:D

Unibody damage I'd say is unlikely. Doors, glass, and fenders, VERY.

[themangeraaad]

Looks like I have to take my glass out then :D Maybe lexan... or swap in my old (non-vent) windows by then so I dont break the good windows.

[MoparManiac]

I caught the whole passenger side of my jeep as well as both front fenders there.

Such a good time...

:D

YEPPIE!!!

you WILL be there, otherwise ill hunt you down!!

Nope. He'll give you some ridiculous excuse about some super spiffy front axle shafts or some crap...

:D

"look at me with my cool cv's blah blah blah"

Unibody damage I'd say is unlikely.

LIES!!!

Looks like I have to take my glass out then :D Maybe lexan...

just because of this place, i have a piece of lexan cut to fit the rear quarter glass that i keep with me at all times now








I WANNA WHEEL THE PISS OUTTA LOBSTERWOLRD IN THE SNOW!!!!

[kastein]

Unibody damage I'd say is unlikely unless your name is Rob. Doors, glass, and fenders, VERY.
fixed that for you... :D

[mini=man]

Oh yeah, Ross didn't you drop off something and re-align your doors?

[RCman]

Will your jeep be ready to wheel by then?Highly unlikely, as Travis mentioned budget hit a brick wall doing about a buck ten... it's dead.
Nope. He'll give you some ridiculous excuse about some super spiffy front axle shafts or some crap...

:D
"look at me with my cool cv's blah blah blah"
:moon: Hey now, play nice guys. Not once have a flaunted the shafts, it ain't my style. You've been doing it for me.

I WANNA WHEEL THE PISS OUTTA LOBSTERWOLRD IN THE SNOW!!!!Well at least you'll have name brand joints in the front end this time. :shocked:

Such a good time...

:DAlways!

[foxwar71]

Oh yeah, Ross didn't you drop off something and re-align your doors?

:doh: :D PS rear corner is now higher then the rest of the jeep. i dont like opening the PS rear door anymore either.


Well at least you'll have name brand joints in the front end this time. :shocked:


Yeppie, ill see if i can blow up a hub or something then:D

[foxwar71]

so who is gunna bring some chocolate and ask me to be their valentine??

[kastein]

I should note I never go to Lobster's place without talking to a police officer... first time I got a ticket, on the way home I pulled over to nap on the way home and another officer thought I was either drunk or a burglar, second time I pulled over to nap on the way home and the officer thought I was drunk. I wonder what will happen this time? The way things are going I'll be pulled over for being a drunk burglar and given a speeding ticket.

Do you look like a drunk speeding burglar? :shocked:

:D
you got some small scratched, i took out the whole passenger side of my jeep and a window, i also cracked my windshield there, if mine survives the 1/17 run it may be tempting to keep it around and trailer it up for this

[nhrocker]

Working on getting my rig ready for trail use. Some parts on order, some sitting in my living room, and hopefully getting it into a garage soon to actually install said parts.

Oh yeah, and what about the hosts of this run? What will they be driving? I know a certain first lady wouldn't mind having a running XJ to drive to work in bad weather... So what's the good word, will there be a running lobster rig? :gag: :D

[my 92 XJ]

Hi. I'm new to the site but I would love to come and check it out.Maybe wheel but not sure if the 92 will be done.What can I bring for food?Everyone like chilli?

[5spd_xj]

Bring venison chili and you get a kiss from me. Yeah. I like it that much.


Oh, and welcome to NAXJA :D

[Ms. Lobsterdmb]

You can be my valentine!

[5spd_xj]

I gotta start thinking of some awesome food to bring... So far, I got nothin.... :thinkingcap:

[Hackmeister]

panos? some of us have never had it, you know....

[5spd_xj]

:shocked: oh man, and that would be the perfect base to pile a bunch of alcohol on top of at crotched! :gee:

Maybe I'll try and work out a price with Mrs. Pano's (don't know her name but apparently she loves me haha). That's a great idea though dude. Maybe a few of us (Colin :nudgenudge:) could go in on getting a giant order. Damn I'm wicked excited now.

[Hackmeister]

does Pano's cater? ZOMG

[kastein]

^ has also never been to pano's

[5spd_xj]

does Pano's cater? ZOMG

I'm gona cross my fingers and flirt to the best of my abilities when asking :gee:

OMFG!! such a good idea, i want to try this panos you speak of real bad

[masswrecker]

what is this pano's you speak of?

[themangeraaad]

I have never been to Panos so I approve of that plan :thumbup:

I was going to have my father make some epic good chili but I see that is already accounted for. Maybe I will have to go all otu and have him make a briskuit that I could bring up.... that would do it, there we go. Planned

I would do something myself but his always come out better, plus that is less work for me :D

[my 92 XJ]

I don't know about a venison chili but I can make a mean meat and bean chili.Although I should try that sometime.

[themangeraaad]

I am now front and rear recovery points closer to being "NAXJA approved". Next: Axles and a full size spare which I already have lined up. I will def be up for this, maybe my first NAXJA wheeling event! :D

[mini=man]

I vote for Panos too.Maybe I'll have my new tires on and gears in by then!

[5spd_xj]

In order to qualify for Pano's, you need to recieve extensive body damage ("extensive" to be determined by whoever pays for the Pano's food). :) This oughta provide a little excitement on the trail. "Ahh, damn. look at my rocker." .... "Ya think that's enough for Pano's, dude? I dunno, keep going!!" .... "Hmm, yeah... alright!" *cruch crunch drag drag smash crash pop*

:D

[MoparManiac]

Travis always has the best ideas.

Hmmm I might have to carefully aim for beating the living crap out of my drivers door and nothing else then, is that good enough? :spin1:

Since it's all scored up from the vandals I've been considering aiming for things with it, but trying to keep the rest of the XJ as clean as it is now.

What about passengers? If Ken doesn't want to hurt his rig too bad, can he ride shotty for some of the trail while I make my Jeep bleed in order to get Panos?

hmmm we'll see how bad the door is. If Dukes of Hazard activities are required there's a good chance you get some roast beef.

Hmmmmmm. This should be interesting.

Really, as long as I don't screw up my rear quarters I won't be too too sad. I can pick up (and may well pick up) rear doors from a white 96 Sport just like mine at the junkyard for $50 a whack if I really decide I want it to be pretty... there are some there *right now* so I might swipe em for making it look nice again. Front fenders I don't really give a flying flip about, I have a spare set sitting on my back porch, and rockers are going to be replaced with 2x6" tubing when they finish rusting out. Oh, and I'll try to avoid hurting the hatch and the roof drip rails. Other than that :dunno: I can replace it pretty cheap but I'd rather avoid the hassle.

The vandals managed to put a nice dent/take the paint off RIGHT at the line between the driver side front and rear doors. :soapbox:

[ROBZ95Xj]

damn its very tempting to keep the blue jeep around for this, only big issue would it would have to be trailerd. thoughts?

[5spd_xj]

I think you should bring the blue Jeep, cause God knows your Mom's Jeep will get the snot beat out of it if you were to show up in that haha

[MoparManiac]

damn its very tempting to keep the blue jeep around for this, only big issue would it would have to be trailerd. thoughts?

This isn't a question.

Bring it.

[themangeraaad]

nope, but you might be able to earn yourself a second sandwich ;)

A second sammich?!? I like the sounds of that plan even more :D

[lobsterdmb]

Now I am hungry for chili and brisket :lickout:


What's pano's?

[lobsterdmb]

damn its very tempting to keep the blue jeep around for this, only big issue would it would have to be trailerd. thoughts?

If you bring it on a trailer, you can park the trailer on the left or right before you go up my driveway.

[foxwar71]

how much room do you have for trailers John? id like to take my dads duramax so i can a feel for how it tows.

[ROBZ95Xj]

colin and Travis you both are EVIL

[5spd_xj]

:kissyou:

[MoparManiac]

:D:D:D

[jeepcj/jeepxj]

Count me in.....I'm always up for a good time.....Has a date been set for the buggy build/chopping?

[redneckboarder]

ill be trailering too, but i can probably park at dereks house up by the powerlines on your road

[MoparManiac]

I was going to trailer as well...

Balls.

Mine will probably be ok to drive by then though, we'll see.

[5spd_xj]

It's ok to drive right now you pansy...

[themangeraaad]

The thing I have decided (if I end up wheeling my rig at this event): I need an avatar pic, I am determined to get a good one. I suspect it will either be of my Jeep hitting something or me eating a sammich. Just a guess. :roflmao:

[5spd_xj]

Yeah I got my avatar picture at the last wheeling event as well. :)

[redneckboarder]

you got a picture of the penguins at the last wheeling event!!!! i want a picture of them

[themangeraaad]

you got a picture of the penguins at the last wheeling event!!!! i want a picture of them
:roflmao: I am left thinking the same thing :wierd:

[5spd_xj]

You betcha. They make appearances.

[MoparManiac]

It's ok to drive right now you pansy...

Needs a new fuel pump.

[5spd_xj]

nope. pay your little sister to sit on the engine, hood up, and keep feeding her cans of starter fluid as you go. boom driveable.

[MoparManiac]

DAMNIT.

Why didn't I think of that...

[ROBZ95Xj]

colin i got free tank and fuel pump from a 92 in my green jeep you can have

[MoparManiac]

I bought new stuff off of bump, but if it's free I'll take it.

:D

[kastein]

I also have a free fuel pump assembly someone can have, it's kinda rusty and came out of my 96 so your fuel gauge may tell you to get hosed :dunno:

I just have to measure the resistance across each element and write it down somewhere before I give it away.

[ROBZ95Xj]

I bought new stuff off of bump, but if it's free I'll take it.

:D

tank is junk but pump was good when it last ran 2 yrs ago

[masswrecker]

my pump has been wicked loud since i bought the jeep is that normal???

[themangeraaad]

My pump is quiet for the first 30 min to hour, then it gets loud. I think it's probably on its way out. S**T I just remembered I have to put my fuel tank back in tomorrow and I never picked up J-bolts. Looks like I will be picking up some all-thread and making my own.

[kastein]

my pump has been wicked loud since i bought the jeep is that normal???
what year? If it's a 94 (I think, 93 might be the last year) or before and you shunted the ballast resistor, yeah, that's normal... mine makes the standard whirring/quiet whine when running.

[masswrecker]

my pump is loud all the time and has been for almost a year fuel pressure is normal though oh its a 90 with th e4.0 renix

[lobsterdmb]

So whoever is bringing a trailer, I am sure we can find parking for them. My only request is that they do not come up the driveway. There is no enough room at the top to turn around (ask me how I know) and it is not fun to try and back it down the driveway.

[lobsterdmb]

Current Food List:

Chili: My92XJ
Briskit: themangeraad
Pano's (whatever the hell that is): 5spd_xj

Other ideas from me:
Salad
Fruit Salad
Pasta
Potato's of some kind
Potato Chips
Chips and Salsa
Cheese and Crackers
Cookies
Pie
Brownies

I will do my best to get the Briskit, but I can't make a 100% guarantee. Though I think the chances are pretty good... just don't get hopes to TOOO high :thumbup: :laugh3:

[my 92 XJ]

positive on the chili,not positive on the XJ.Either way I will be there.

[5spd_xj]

Pano's (whatever the hell that is): 5spd_xj

You'll thank me. You can add Colin (MoparManiac) to that as I think we'll be going half and half on it.

Maybe if someone brought ALL of that, it would have a chance at holding a candle to Pano's.

[ROBZ95Xj]

i can Bring HI-C's

[5spd_xj]

nice. :thumbup:

[billyjp2]

i hope my jeep is ready to win some Hi-C

[themangeraaad]

My Jeep is in the process of getting new bumpers installed :thumbup: I suppose I should eb working on teh real stuff, like finishing my floor and putting a fuel tank in... but regardless of any of that... my jeep is getting new bumpers installed :D

[lobsterdmb]

what if i rent a big penskee truck and put the jeep in the back?:D

We can find a place to park it, but your responsible for getting the jeep in and out of it :doh:

[5spd_xj]

Don't act like you don't want to be involved with that, John...



:D

[lobsterdmb]

Don't act like you don't want to be involved with that, John...



:D

No I will be invloved.... I will be operating the video camera so we can get it all on tape. :looney:

[5spd_xj]

Ah, gotcha. I'll park my Jeep behind the Penske truck to soften the landing of Rob's Jeep :gee:

[foxwar71]

i can Bring HI-C's

im trailering my jeep. im getting HiC's.



(my only two promises)

[xjbump]

I also have a free fuel pump assembly someone can have, it's kinda rusty and came out of my 96 so your fuel gauge may tell you to get hosed :dunno:

I just have to measure the resistance across each element and write it down somewhere before I give it away.

If its out of a 96 its that gay middle yr that had a metal tank but a single feed pump, no return line, ob2 and all that crap.


Maybe if someone brought ALL of that, it would have a chance at holding a candle to Pano's. I'm already bored.

You can bring some Roast Beef from whatever place it is that you think is so great and prove to me that it's of the same level of quality as Pano's....otherwise...http://www.deepwoodsextreme.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/stfu2.gif

[kastein]

If its out of a 96 its that gay middle yr that had a metal tank but a single feed pump, no return line, ob2 and all that crap.
you got it! my 96 is definitely a red headed stepchild of the XJ family, nearly as bad as the 84-86 range. The fuel gauge sender wiring is fairly complicated for absolutely no reason and comes nowhere near close to matching either the 95- or the 97+ designs. lastara

And I haven't managed to scrape together the money for a 96 FSM, so I'm kinda pissing in the wind so far as to what resistances I should be seeing on the 3 (yes, that's right. Plus some of them are ground referenced. WTF) fuel gauge sender wires.

[masswrecker]

i can bring some bomb tortelinni salad and the best roast beef was from georgio's in easton before they closed

Rob (nhrocker) came over this weekend to work on the jeep, so we decided to run some of the trails

http://web.me.com/lobsterdmb/Phin/Impending_Doom_files/IMG_0952.jpg

My property didn't disappoint. Took some body damage on Rob's Jeep

http://web.me.com/lobsterdmb/Phin/Impending_Doom_files/IMG_0954.jpg
http://web.me.com/lobsterdmb/Phin/Impending_Doom_files/IMG_0957.jpg

It was so nasty that the winch even had to come out

http://web.me.com/lobsterdmb/Phin/Impending_Doom_files/IMG_0959.jpg

We used some parts I had lying around to get Rob fixed up before he went home
http://web.me.com/lobsterdmb/Phin/Impending_Doom_files/IMG_0961.jpg

We had a great time this weekend and now there's more room in my garage!

[lobsterdmb]

Also new requirement for the event:

If you want to run trails, one locker is required.

With one locker, I would say body damage is guaranteed
With two lockers, body damage is possible

Also, if you have a winch, I would make sure you have it on and working. It will probably get used!

[5spd_xj]

stupendously stupendous!

[foxwar71]

i may or may not have a front locker for this run, but im still attacking buggy rocks:D

[ROBZ95Xj]

i have 2 lockers and body damage is garenteed for me, i will make my line on the other side of buggy rocks that no one else has tried yet

[ROBZ95Xj]

i may or may not have a front locker for this run, but im still attacking buggy rocks:D

if its getting trailerd weld the damn thing DUH!

[mini=man]

If there is going to be two attempts at buggy hill I'm definitely coming. I'll find something to bring for food. But I most likely wont be running.

[bj-666]

I may be interested in going pm me some info.

[lobsterdmb]

I may be interested in going pm me some info.

wow, a blast from the past.... I will pm you tomorrow Brandon!

[scully]

ill try to get my sh*t together for this run....moneys been tight, but its getting closer to being on the road.
no more olive drab xj...im rockin two mj's now.
one is our dd, and the other should be all set by the end of jan the latest.
but if not, i may be lookin for a passenger seat to occupy!

[ROBZ95Xj]

im a genious, i can sign my blue jeep over to my mom, she can get 10 day plates for it for 10 bucks, then i can leagally drive up to lobster's BRILLIANT!

[scully]

hmmm. maybe i should get a locker for the front before this...
i DO have a whole month+ a couple days, and just got access to a shop(after hours style, full tools, compressor,lift,etc.)
should give me time to get my crap together.with a little help of course.

[cmelo]

Also, if you have a winch, I would make sure you have it on and working. It will probably get used!

Heh

Since this is over a month away I could make this. The comanche is almost done so I clean up that mess to rebuild a transmission and transfer case to get back on the trails. I have front and rear lockers and will be dissapointed if i leave without body damage.

[5spd_xj]

^^ sweet.

[ROBZ95Xj]

carmelo wheelin, this will be awsome

[97xjowner]

i'd be interested in just coming to watch..

good chance to meet new folks and learn..

my XJ is open/open with only 3" lift and 31"s and no winch.(and no chance of it changing anytime soon)

Your more than welcome to come watch. Figure out what food to bring and post it up. In the spring/summer, when the snow is gone, you would be fine to come wheel on my property with your jeep the way it is. The snow and ice have just made everything really slick and the trees are tight in spots.

[mini=man]

I'll bring the fruit salad. And I will get some kind of trail mix too.

[97xjowner]

i'm no cook/baker so i hope noone minds a store bought pie(s)..

unless i can get my sis to do it..oh and now that i'm working days and my days off change week by week..i really hope i don't have to work that day.(if so,i'll just have to request it off then)

BTW-are you gonna P/M those that haven't a clue of location this is gonna take place at ?

Everyone will get a pm about a week before, just like my other events. I just don't want/need my address posted on a public forum.

Store bought pie is fine :wave:

[ROBZ95Xj]

i cant wait! hopefully my rig survives tomorow, it be fitting that its last run will be at lobsterville, its where everything started goin downhill

[foxwar71]

ive made a decision. the front spider gears will be welded for this run.

[mini=man]

ive made a decision. the front spider gears will be welded for this run.
I approve this message!:eeks1: I can't wait for this run, should be the most carnage Lobsterville has seen yet.

[ROBZ95Xj]

mine is still movable, cant wait till the 13th, its on like Donkey Kong

[themangeraaad]

9" gets swapped in next weekend (would have been this wkend but I couldn't get u-bolts for it). Then Jeep gets dropped off to have the D30 regeared and the 9" rebuilt... Then I can say "game on"

While welding on some rockers today I got a good look at my rear tire. only got maybe 1/4" tread left (on an A/T), maybe a bit more.

Maybe I will try and get some new tires this month, idk if that is enough tread to get me through a day of wheeling.

[lobsterdmb]

I can't believe this is only a few weeks away. I am excited!

I'm still going to go, but the green rig is down and out, and I'm not wheeling the new cutie pie on your tight-ass trails just yet. I gotta give it some bumps and scratches of my own before i'm willing to bounce it off trees etc :laugh:

Lies! You'll end up running it anyways.

[5spd_xj]

nope.

[themangeraaad]

9" is in.. as long as I can get the 9" rebuilt and the d30 regeared I will be there and wheeling... otherwise I will show up in the car and just be there.

[MoparManiac]

Bumper/winch will be on and operational.

x2 with Rob. It's on like Donkey Kong.

[Dundy]

I'll bring the chips and salsa. I plan on riding with Ross on this one (Foxwar71) because i'm in the same boat as Travis...

We may have a NAXJA member visiting from the West Coast but he won't have a car.

[redneckboarder]

so what sort of food is still needed?

im pretty much 100% on this with my gf

[Hackmeister]

We may have a NAXJA member visiting from the West Coast but he won't have a car.

let me know, i ought to have a seat in shotgun anyways. PM me details or something if it pans out.

[mini=man]

If anyone can successfully make the Hatch opener I'll run mine but if not, anyone have an open seat?

[redneckboarder]

is hatch opener the one colin had to open his hatch on? he only had about 2" higher to go so ill try it. i dont care if i roll my crap i have a trailer

[kastein]

I bet I can open it, I'll have to experiment on a junkyardmobile next time I hit up the yard.

EDIT: oh, I bet I was welding my LCA bracket together in my driveway when you guys named that trail, oops, thought Keith's hatch was jammed

[redneckboarder]

is anybody keeping track of what food needs to be brought?

[themangeraaad]

Sooo I dont think my junk will be ready for this one... however I hope to make it up anyway. I am going to try and get the rear axle done before this but that still leaves me SOL with regard to regearing the front. If I can work some magic and get it done then I will.. but I will likely either be driving up in the Altima or a Jeep that cant use 4wd

[nhrocker]

is anybody keeping track of what food needs to be brought?

Yup, Johnny posted yesterday, on page 11 of this thread with an updated list of who's bringing what and some possibilities for other items.

The briscuit is a maybe, hopefully going to be bringing it but it's up in the air at the moment.

Something in the rear end of my Jeep is making angrier and angrier noises right now actually, I'm hoping it's either the 8.25/driveshaft or my exhaust or maybe just grinding noises from the transmission coming through the unibody in a funny way. My suspicion is that I've been "just living with" the driveshaft vibrations for too long. I think I might drop the 8.8 in within the next week or two whether I can figure out the right driveshaft length or not.

If all else fails, it looks like I'll be buying the MJ within a week or two at the most, so I'll drive that up if my XJ blows up.

Ross - should I pull the carrier/bearings/shafts out of the 8.8 or are they OK to leave in while preheating it? Also, are you going to be around anytime between now and 2/13? We have TCUs to chop up and axles to weld...

[redneckboarder]

does anybody have a preference caesar salad or regular??

[5spd_xj]

does anybody have a preference caesar salad or regular??

Just bring green stuff, I don't know what the difference is between those two anyways hahah

[redneckboarder]

one has croutons shredded cheese and dressing the other has tomatoes and onions and other nasty stuff

personally i like caesar better so i think thats what im bringin and if u dont like it lotty and i will eat it on the ride home haha

[5spd_xj]

sounds good :thumbup:

[xjbump]

Its easy one has vegetables and one doesnt. Caesar's a good filler especially when chicken is applied.

[kastein]

Caesar's my preference, I'll eat either though.

Chef salad is pretty good too... loaded up on ham/cheese/chicken/other stuff, way more expensive to make though.

[Hackmeister]

+1 for Caesar also

[Begster]

Colin and Travis, are you seriously bringing Panos? You guys are such tards.


I need a ride, Jeep won't be functional, yet again.

[97xjowner]

will find out later this week if i'll be able to make it..when i go back to work on weds,maybe i'll just tell the scheduler that i need the 13th off..

and if i can make it,i'll bring several different types of pies..

Other ideas from me:
Potato's of some kind



Potato Gun?

[redneckboarder]

i can bring the steel one i have...it runs off acetylene. will put a potato into orbit but it hasta be frozen or it just explodes

we tried actylene in a PVC gun...not a good idea

[redneckboarder]

DAMIT, i got the h asta horse again...id love to know why that happens

[Dundy]

Potato Cannon?

FIFY

[themangeraaad]

My potato cannon uses less fire and more compressed air.. About on par with a normal aerosol cannon... No fire makes it less cool... but a normal potato cannon with aerosol fires at around 20psi IIRC. Mine is regulated to around 120psi :D

And I can shoot liquid or whatever I want out of it since the barrel and chamber are completely independent. I should dig that thing out one of these days...

[redneckboarder]

now thats just getting too involved...fire and explosion and flying vegetables is way easier haha

[themangeraaad]

I agree...

BUT I did this for my highschool science fair project. I did a study on the affect of increased pressure behind a projectile and the reduction of gains at higher pressures...

...and I managed to come up with an excuse to build a remote fired pneumatic cannon for a school project, which in turn won me an honorable mention in the school science fair :laugh:. The cannon I built for this project was fired by a remote up to 50 ft away (for "safety", and since the handheld pneumatic cannon that I already had wasn't "precise" (aka expensive) enough, so instead of opening a valve by hand I used an electronically operated valve :D)

[redneckboarder]

ah, i made a battlebot for physics...it lit on fire and burned in school, that was really awesome.

i love cool teachers that let you have leeway with projects

[5-90]

Just to let you know (grammatical nit-picking...)

"Anti-Valentines" means "against Valentine's Day."

"Ante-Valentines" would mean "before Valentine's Day."

Considering you're planning the run for 13FEB (the day before Valentine's Day,) this thread would probably be more properly entitled "Ante-Valentine's Day Run."

Sorry - couldn't help myself...

[billyjp2]

i always assumed he meant Anti-Valentines Day and not Ante-Valentines Day

[themangeraaad]

I also assumed he meant Anti-Valentines day, only because I did not know of "Ante"

[lobsterdmb]

My Wife and I hate Valentine's day so I did mean "Anti-"... It's a poor excuse for a hallmark made holiday. So I decided to hold an event on a weekend most people might get forced into going out or away by a significant other. I thought wheeling would be a more fun option!

[redneckboarder]

im dragging the SO with me haha

:dunno: I'm kinda down with both ideas.

I shot a #0 phillips screwdriver through a computer with my old cannon once... handle bounced back, shaft (1/4" steel bar) went through the side panel, motherboard tray, both sides of the HDD rack, and out the other side panel. We never did find the bar, just a 2 foot long 1" wide chunk of turf removed from the lawn about 20 feet away and a divot in the asphalt of a cross street another 70 feet past that. A few gallons of compressed air at 160psi is something I respect quite well.

:roflmao:

So in the event that I cannot get the brisket is there any other recommendations? I could bring a bunch of kielbasa or something.

I just know that when I asked about possibly having the brisket made up I got a "you want to bring chili instead?" so it seems like the father has no interest in making it for me to bring elsewhere :laugh: Sadly chili was already called before I showed up to this thread otherwise I would have called dibs on it.. So yeah, if I can't bring Brisket, any other requests?

[5spd_xj]

carvel ice cream cake.

[mini=man]

Travis, you now hold a place in my sig for that comment. Totally made my day.

[5spd_xj]

niceeeeeeeeeee :thumbup:



...and XJRanger... no offense meant/intended ;)

[themangeraaad]

I thought about quoting that. But then I got distracted and forgot.

And ice cream cake it is :D Now the question is how many will we need :eyes:

[mini=man]

One. Every one must fight for it with broken parts off their own rig. Unless it's Carmelo, then he'll just rip off other people's mirrors and throw them at you.

[themangeraaad]

One. Every one must fight for it with broken parts off their own rig. Unless it's Carmelo, then he'll just rip off other people's mirrors and throw them at you.

One it is. And I will be sure to bring an arsenal of old broken parts from my rig if mine isn't able to drive up :laugh3: Maybe I will just pull and old 8.25 shaft or 2. use as a baseball bat to deflect other parts/attacks.

Speaking of which. I have a C8.25 that I can bring parts from incase anyone needs parts or spares... Right now I have no clue if it is 27 or 29 spline though I would guess it is 27 (It was a JY axle and I never checked spline count). It should have good brakes. new shoes/drums back in 05 or 06. Also I can bring spare rear glass for a 2 dr off a '93 (I cant remember if the glass changed for the '96 model). The glass may be worth a couple $$ to me though, so keep that i mind :D I know I will be breaking my glass at some point so yeah...

LMK if there's anything that I should bring. Unless someone can sell me a front axle geared to 4.88s my rig wont be wheeling this time around :(

[kastein]

One. Every one must fight for it with broken parts off their own rig. Unless it's Carmelo, then he'll just rip off other people's mirrors and throw them at you.
It's too bad I'm not strong enough to just pick my XJ up and throw it at people, I guess I'll have to pull my transmission by then and throw that instead

[themangeraaad]

It's too bad I'm not strong enough to just pick my XJ up and throw it at people, I guess I'll have to pull my transmission by then and throw that instead
Pffft, you couldn't chunk a tranny hard/far enough to hurt anyone :laugh:

However on that note, I feel like a mounted air cannon would go over very well. :eyes: hell it doesn't matter if I show up in the altima or the XJ... Either way... Devious... :D



Edit: Since this is at lobster's... how many would be interested in lobster rolls? A local place to me had and/or has the phantom gourmet's #1 lobster roll.. Granted they are expensive as hell, but if I could get a "lobster roll mini's" dish with like 20-30 small sammiches (if they even have one) would there be much interest?

[XJ_ranger]

Definitely, the question is: Could they survive it, especially in the winter :scottm:

Do you have beadlocks? I sure hope so...
They retain beer, apple cider, and other yellow liquids when deposited in them... and if its cold enough, you might even end up with a slushie... :D




As for food / beer / what the eff ever -

I'll see what I can come up with to bring.

winter camping is the best :thumbup:

[lobsterdmb]

Only problem with that is someone is already bringing cake. We have alot of desert coming.... maybe cold cuts or some other kind of meat would be a better fit.

Edit: Since this is at lobster's... how many would be interested in lobster rolls? A local place to me had and/or has the phantom gourmet's #1 lobster roll.. Granted they are expensive as hell, but if I could get a "lobster roll mini's" dish with like 20-30 small sammiches (if they even have one) would there be much interest?

This would be a good idea.

Pffft, you couldn't chunk a tranny hard/far enough to hurt anyone :laugh:
Wanna bet? As long as he, she, it, whatever, isn't a tank, I bet I could.

... oh, you're talking about transmissions? Maybe.

We need some kind of potatoes, so I will put you in charge of that.

Fixed it... since I'm not sure if I can make the brisket yet and idk how poor I would be after buying a tray of lobster rolls :laugh:

I have to go to the bar and ask how much for a tray of them... such a horrible task :rof:

Sounds good! I can't believe it's only a week away!

[kastein]

Seriously, how did that happen? Looks like I'm going to be doing double duty baking this week, apparently I'm scheduled to make something for the weekly happy hour at work too.

And then the RC trail cutting two weeks after that...

With luck I will be able to be at the trail cutting... with my Jeep :shocked:

Either that or with an MJ, though I am still debating what I should do for the MJ... OBDI 4.0 or just go all out and drop the coin and do an LS1 swap.. choices choices :D

And I still have yet to stop by the bar and ask about lobster rolls. Maybe tomorrow afternoon or tomorrow evening.

[mini=man]

NOOO! I can't make it. My boss said I wont have a job if I take Saturday off.

[kastein]

damn, that sucks... start looking for a new job yet?

:D

fine by me.... or if you want a fruit salad is up for grabs since mini=man is not coming now.

I will be coming up but my heep doesn't have enough armor to actually run. Its a daily driver so I don't want to risk breaking her and getting stranded out there. But I will come up anyone to take some pictures for a project I am doing so I am pumped.

On a side note: anyone got an open seat in their rig? I wouldn't mind getting a bit of experience from the passanger seat so I will be ready to wheel once my rig is done (I have never gone legit wheeling yet)

You need to choose some food item to bring if you plan on coming...
