SoCalXJ Jambo

If anyone wants customizable directions, I've got a Google map setup. If you don't know what means, this is for you:

1. Go to: http://tinyurl.com/truckhavencamp
2. Click once on the blue flag/dot. A bubble will pop up with the GPS Coordinates (for those of you with them, just use these coordinates)
3. Click the link "Directions" in the bubble window.
4. On the left hand side of your screen in the green "A" box, type your home address.
5. Click "Get Directions" and you are Done!

These may not be the BEST directions to Truckhaven, and the final destination may not be 100% exact but it will get you in the general area of Truckhaven. Pretty sure this spot is the location of the past Jambo Truckhaven Camp.

Just a quick note on the Jamboree. Everyone is welcome. If you haven't been to Truckhaven, it's dry camping, no hook-ups. There are no fees for the event or to stay. Come one, come all. Stock to heavily modified. Proper tow/recovery points required for runs.

Saturday the 27th is THE big day for runs. If you can only make it for a day, come on Saturday morning.

It better be awesome after 177 miles for me...of course I better make it before I start mouthing off!

 

[cal]

awesome is what you make of it. for me, every truckhaven trip is awesome, even the ones where i drive my pickup or civic out there.

we will have a good sized group of friends and family, a fire, and a lot of aggressively getting our chill on.

there will be some wheeling in there too.

What Cal said (twice). Everyone has fun, regardless of what they choose to do.

There's always the possible need for some empty Sobe bottles, too, for a little bit of excitement around the fire. :explosion:flame:

Friends, family, kids and dogs are welcome, as long as they're either pretty good at playing with others or properly restrained .

 

[djblade311]

Body saw!

 

[crazyjim]

There's a 99% chance I'm in for this, but I'll be in my 2wd MJ. However I'll probably take my bike out there so I can follow along and watch all you be idiots

 

[HeepSpeed]

Body saw!

ha! Just got done removing the fender hardware...every single bolt broke. So now the debate begins on whether to get new hardware, leave it flareless or get some other type (Fiberglass or Bushwacker).

hmmm - this is all your fault Josh.

 

[souske]

If you get the proper sized socket and a punch the old bolts will pop right out of the strips. Then you can just tack new ones on.

 

[jeeperjohn]

I vote TJ flares!

 

[HeepSpeed]

Why didn't anyone tell me this was so fun! grind grind grind...I can see why people like building buggies...

 

[HeepSpeed]

I just realized I can't go to the event. I have a final Tuesday March 30 in my difficult class! =(

That's a bummer you can't go now, Garrett! Not even for Saturday???

Anyway, anyone that wants to participate in the Potluck on Saturday night, you can sign up for a dish here:

That's being organized by Markw's wife Belinda, who was kind enough to take it on.
