To Do List

Seems like everyone is almost ready, been quiet. I just need to change some oil,take a last look over everything and start packing.
 
I gotta throw like 1500lbs of stuff in the jeep... just replaced the unit bearings today in the parking lot at work. I am buying it new balljoints for the passenger side tomorrow (the ones in it right now have some pretty scary play in them, the wheel was flopping back and forth a little when I tightened the lugnuts on it and the knuckle moves up and down about 1/8"!) and then I just gotta put the tow hooks on and build the trailer hitch for the back.
 
no order, of course beer is #1 priority

Make sure you pack the beer first, so that you dont bring anything you dont need like a change of clothes or a flashlight.
 
i stopped going thru the mud a while ago but there it was packed up in my drums for a while and i never realized it. anytime i go out their i take the kids down the fire roads

I wanna give you the biggest high five in the world.
 
get someone to make me some unibody tie ins for my rear bumper -COME ON, ANY TAKERS? (any takers) :D[/I]

If it wasn't needed for NACfest I would offer to help out. I am making some for my rear bumper sooner or later (within a few weeks) and could def throw together a 2nd set of nutstrips along with drill a piece of 1/4" steel for your tie-ins.... but I won't be done this week, sorry. I hope to be working on my tie-ins over the next wkend or so but if you still havent made some (and want to make some) feel free to stop by my place on the 4th of July wkend or later in the following wk (I am taking July 8th & 9th off to work on the Jeep and can give a hand). :thumbup:

On that note, I won't be making it down. Can't get the time off partly due to being so close to end or quarter and partly due to short notice on my part... also I just won't be ready to wheel (not to mention I don't trust my fuel pump and/or trans to make the drive at this point. Both make lots of funny noises after driving for a little while). Or maybe it's my engine and fuel pump.. idk.. either way I don't trust it for a 5+ hour drive. It only makes noises over 2.5k RPMs but I haven't done much highway driving lately so I think I will keep it in MA (or other very local states) until I get a couple weeks of highway driving to/from work under my belt after gear break in and oil change is done at least... or at least until I put a carpet and a stereo in to muffle the funny noises so I don't hear them and/or care about them any more :D

Just spent the weekend getting Bobs rig ready. Gotta love going to managers meeting this morning with grease stained fingers LOL!

Done this weekend:
1. Replace Front & Rear Brakes

Oh man, I hope that is what remains of the tire on that rim, and not the lip of the rim that looks all mangled... :doh:
