I'll be down Friday evening at Summers .

Looks like I'll need to put my front axle back together with the leaking ARB, since they sent the part to the vendor in Colorado, instead of sending it to me. Maybe I'll try pouring some crazy glue in the cracks, to hopefully slow the leak a bit.

That and a power steering hose, and I'm ready. As usual, I have several boxes and bins of kindling wood for the campfire, and this time I'll be bringing some homebrew in addition to another bottle of mezcal.

Hope someone else gets the worm this time :cheers:

I expect a couple will not show, or not be ready to run........this is more rigs than I expected, but Troy said it won't be a problem.

I'm down with your idea Dan, if it's an option!

stage 2 is complete. The front end is on jack stands and the tires are off.

We might be coming down late Fri. night. after my nephew's graduation ceremony, depends on how long that runs and if Ror gets the buggy put back together and loaded up on Thurs. night.
