Good times for sure and a lot of the XJs that were there either no longer exist or look very different today.
I'll start off with this scenic shot though...

My junk was so clean back then...

You know that's the truth...

In Sept 2003 I had a choice, I had a OME 2" kit on the floor of the shop. I could install it and afford an SYE or a trip to Moab for the 20th, but not both. Goatman posted that I could always install the lift/SYE but there would only be one 20th annivesary. Four years later the OME kit is still on the floor of the shop....
I chose wisely :sunshine:

[xjblue]

Two full groups ran Seven Mile Rim my first day at the event, our group turned back shortly after passing the towers as the run was going a bit long, we had already run hidden Canyon Wash, Bartlett Wash, and spent a lot of time near Tusher Tunnel.

Bones, leader of group #2.

...I think those wheels, axles, and the stars-n-stripes grille live on in his MJ truggy.

Actually there aren't any parts from Shortbus on the Truggy.The front bumper (with a different stinger and beefier mounts), winch and the CA drop brackets and braces are currently on my rig, I think the grill is retired to the garage wall.The tires were on my rig as well but they got replaced a couple of weeks ago
- too worn.The drop brackets/braces will be going on Mrs. planefixer's rig when I do my 3-link LA in a couple of months.

Isn't recycling parts great.:D
