Can I get any info that's available at this point about the Flog? I'm seriously trying to make it, to meet some of y'all at least. The MJ won't be done in time, but I'd still like to drive it down there for the weekend anyways.

Anybody want/need a passenger:laugh3: ?

Also, in a former life, I used to be a chef......I'm willing to volunteer my culinary services for the weekend:chef:

Anybody coming from the east that I might be able to meet up with and convoy in with? I'm assuming I'll be coming via I85, most of the way at least (?)

TIA,
Jeff

I'm still trying to get mine together...hehe got all the parts so maybe this weekend...

First weekend in Nov...still thinking about doing State Line although I did get a PM from YellowXJ that says from there place it's only about a 30 min drive to Davis Creek Road..and if we want we can camp at their place...will have showers and bath by then in the shop...If we think we want to go that route..I need to know soon cause he has limited access to the net so I need to PM him soon.

Hey kids I just got internet yesterday full time...YIIPPIIEE. So my little slice of heaven is getting more civilized. :)

Your all welcome to camp at my shop for the Flog...I know its a few minutes out of the way but the good point is that we should have my workshop set up, bath rooms should be brand new clean still, and you can hit the ABC in murphy on the way here from the trails...depending on how hard a ride you had...

I would not be offended at all if we stayed at the stateline campground either...or crawfords....

and I want to get lots of video of the rides too...


and I have a spare seat in the front of my xj...you might have to arm wrestle my 7 year old daughter for it

Count me in as a 100%, positively, definately, for-sure.......maybe:yelclap:

The wife has already given me her blessing...I just have to arrange financing. I mapquested it, about 7 hrs, 450-ish miles from me to Tellico:looney:

But... you just got here! ;)

Do anything with that x15 yet?

I can't get off my ass, so I guess I'll be jeepless again. This is my one post for the month, and it's irrelevant.

2 weekends ago me and my bud took my XJ and our 74 bronco down to Mtn. City Tenn to the off-road park and blew out some bearings. so while i was out of town my buddy replaced 4 of the bearings in the rear end but the rear end still screams going down the road starting around 25 or 30 mph. so i need to get back under it and see whats going on. but if i cant fix it im looking for dana 44's (anywhere between Roanoke Va. to Knoxville Tenn.) for the front a rear anyways. so one way or another itll get done. im really tryin to come to that weekend. if i can come do you guys knowof somewhere i can stay thats cheap or free or something. i can always sleep in the back of my rig. thanks for hollering back at me
