Happy new year, What is your jeeping goal for 2008

[Gerr]

Ill start off by stating my jeeping goal for 2008 is to have my YJ fixed and wheel able by my 30th birthday (feb 10th) and to wheel at least 8 times in/on 8 different areas/trail systems.



Ok who is next

[Clean Racing]

Well my goal is to get out and wheel at least 2 times before Moab this year... Since the last two years have been spent working on my rig...

[gcurtis]

I just want to get my junk back on the road/trail!

[erikwylie]

I just want to get my junk back on the road/trail!

Me too!

[TheWarWagon]

Shit, I just want to have the time to be able to wheel. Probably ain't gonna happen in '08. :smsoap:

[Leep]

Well, let me think about this for a minute. I wanna be able to wheel and then come back, park and then be able to wheel again without breaking shit and my junk sets for months at a time.

But hey, it is a jeep and things break...Wheel it, break it, fix it, wheel it again.

But like dan says, 8 is a good number in 08.

[Trail-Axe]

Jeep related goals for 2008: Install all the junk that I have purchased for my Jeep; help my friends with their Jeep; test my Jeep upgrades on the Rubicon Trail; and stay out of the hospital! (Three visits in 2007). :D

[Brendan_91XJ]

Just keep the Jeep Running.

[rpraterxj]

Wheel once a month.... minimum...

Keep the Jeeps running good and reliable....

Make more Jeepin friends...

I'd like to fill my gas tank for less than 20 bucks. Is that a goal or a pipe dream?

That is definatly a pipe dream!

[XJMilan]

My goal is less of this :repair: and more of this http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i241/ridinghi/gr_driving3.gif so I can meet some more of you guys and participate in some of these runs instead of just reading about them.

[tcm glx]

Get the WK ready to flat tow the XJ....possibly a trip to Moab for easter!

Now that is highly possible, do you realize how much space a peso takes and how many you can get for a buck. Of course one at a time in the filler neck could take some time...

[tcm glx]

hahahaha
Funny Dennis.

Hey, diesel is cheaper in mexico, filled up the Grand for $35.....

diesel there is differnt though so be carefull. on the newer diesel engines needing ultra-low sulfer diesel it can fubar the particulate strainer

[GrimmJeeper]

my goal for 08 is to keep the rubber side down and the jeep on the trails! :roll:

[Mr. Pickle]

My goals are to wheel at least once every 1.5-2 months, keep her running strong and to make it to Moab this spring or early summer.

Yeah, I have been reading up on that......

They sell low sulfur, but not the ultra low stuff....

urggghh

Hey all, happy new year from GA.

I want to get the POS XJ built and on the trails by June. Cash is the really hold up right now. But I will get it done.

If ya'll want to donate to the cause I need everything to get it up 4" so I can run some 34" LTBs.

Be good fellas.


Bo (SoCaller at heart!)

[ManBearPig]

First of all i want to be able to smog it and get current tags so that i can participate in some runs. Hopefully I can get it done come tax return time

[-96JeepSpeed-]

Make it to big bear in may?

[xL8 APEKSx]

I just wanna get my shit in the dirt. haha! :roll:

[corbinafly]

Avoid high speed encounters with craters, and to not destroy any more axles.:thumbup:

[mattyj]

Stay on these axles for the next year before going to 1 tons in '09!



And taking Kyung with me.
:laugh:

[ScottyDog]

[89xjJe3per]

Well i got one jeep goal done in 2008. I Conver from closed cooling to open cooling. orderd a csf 3-row "Offroad" haha radiator,hose's,thermostat,etc to make a open cooling system got all that done today,went and tested her out and cant get it past 210 to save my life so im happy there... Anyways' my goal's are to get 4.5 spring's in the front to level her out. upgrade my steering "any one a good cheap way let me kno", Cut rear QP, Rhino my roacker's/lower half of jeep.. Make some new Bumper's with the new welder, install onboard air an extra batt... And wheel n meet with the group...

[IslanderOffRoad]

1 run per month minimum (possibly 2 some months because while i'm on the island i probably won't get to go much), but 12 trips at least for the year.

Armor. Lots of armor. Need some skids, rock sliders, rear bumper.

Most immediately is to stop procrastinating and do the SYE kit.

[RªMB°]

This years goal for the junk is to get the cooling system working at 100% effeciency, get rid of 2.5" skyjacker and get 3" RE, hopefully get an Atlas 2 t-case, get a rear and possibly front locker with better gearing than my 3.55, build a bumper with my Syncrowave and 7010, and if all works well maybe go to JV with friends in late spring.

[jeeperjohn]

I want to lift it to about 5" or so. I have 6.5" coils to put in but I will be building a front bumper at some point so I expect it to sit lower. 2X6 rock rails, heavy duty steering, and various skid plates and strengthening measures. Oh and wheel as much as I can.

[Jump This]

Hmmm....I still want to own five XJ's by next year.

There is always something to work on, so finding projects for '08 won't be difficult.

Turbo Subaru in the sand buggy...
Install the 44 in the front of the XJuggy..
Truss up a couple of 30's..
Get a Hi-9..
Make it to all the best runs...
Spend June in Hawaii...(25th wedding anniversary)
Take August off...(well...at least half of August in Big Bear)
Spend October in Utah...(one week with a bunch of wacko's and another with my wife!)
Get the son's XJ out of my garage...
Maybe even build a tube buggy!

:D

My Goals:
1. Fix my oil adapter o-ring leak
2. Replace motor mounts
3. tighten/rebuild CA joints
4. Install my 7100s up front
5. Get a winch
6. Get a better tcase skid
7. Get new rear leafs
8. Wheel once a month (if I'm lucky)
9. Fix all the stuff broken from wheeling and repeat

I think most of those are attainable. :)
