Default JK at Offroad Evo

Hey there fella's, I haven't personally met anyone here other than thru a few postings, but I wanted to share that i finally got the call from Offroad Evolution that all my parts were in and I could bring the rig into the shop.

I left Scottsdale about 2am this Monday morning with the new tires and wheels loaded into the JK. Got to the shop in Fullerton, CA around 8am as they opened for business. Met with owner Mel Wade and his wife Lisa, really nice folks too. Worked with the shop's manager, Bret, finalizing details of the build. But the coolest thing was getting to see all their SEMA rigs getting loaded or readied for driving out to Vegas. Just DAMN incredible. Cannot believe I miss out on SEMA again.

Anyway, once my JK is complete, I hope to get a chance to do some wheeling again real soon and with some of you all.

Ah, now I remember....


I did manage to tear the boot off my front driveshaft, but that was about it...
