Big Bear on the 3rd?

[Kejtar]

Are those runs doable on 31's with stock gears and a 2-3" lift?

Yes, you should be fine. John Bull has a bypass if you choose to take it, but I think that with carefull spotting you can make it.

I'm going to try to make it, but as I'm on-call for work that weekend it's iffy. If I can be there, I will.

I'm going on sunday. We are meeting up with SD4wheelers at Discovery center at 8:30 AM. If anyone wants to meet up drop me an email at [email protected].

 

[Kejtar]

Just a reminder: we will be departing from the discovery center at 9am so lets be there the latest by 8:45 am, and also look for a group of XJ's as it looks like the SD 4wheelers have moved their trail departure area to the upper parking lot at the discovery center. Btw, I will be riding in a white 98XJ with cut rear quarter panels and a fugly rear bumper (it looks way unfinished) and drivers side tailight which is visibly GLUED and reglued plenty times (I should be there by 8:30)

Out of curiosity, is there a standard CB/FRS/ham channel/frequency you'll be using? I'm thinking that if I'm running behind it'd be nice to be able to see if I can't at least raise someone on the radio to try to play catch-up.

It was FUN! Even though I let my brother in law do all the driving (with the exception of me driving up that one climb on John Bull, and then coming down in reverse to give Karstic a little tug).

 

[xman]

Had a GREAT time wheeling with you guys I’ll get some pic up later. I hope I can make it next week.
:wave:

FUN, FUN, FUN

We had a great time. I'm glad I put on the rock rails last night. I haven't been under the Jeep yet to see how much rock rash I have but when I hooked up the front sway bar I noticed I flowered the the passenger side LCA mount pretty good. I don't think I did too bad for my first "black diamond" run. How was the Holcumb run?

Well, Matt got wee bit worried when the only thing between getting in touch with "nature" was a tree that bounced him back and whole bunch of us on other rockrail.... and lets see: it took us almost 2 hours to make it to Holocomb as Tim (btw, he's pretty much local) got lost plenty times (it wasn't bad cause we got to sightsee ). Anyways after we followed Tim (who was Bent on using his gps and maps) we got to holocomb creek and we found out that Randy's passengers complained about broken makeup set and had some weird water spots on their jeans (supposedly from getting hit over the head with a water bottle?? although last words prior to that being noticed were "I can hold it"). Anyways all in all it was fun, too bad you had to leave early as you'd really have a blast on holocomb (way easier then John Bull).

To fix it you probably will need the following:
1. BFH
2. some sort of a vise or something like that
