Yeah I could be up for that.

 

I'm stoked for this Sat. Going to turn some wrenches and get the following on the rig:
-18/59 JKU Rubi coils
-Woods steering stabilizer relo bracket
-Northridge TB & LCA bolt kit

Hopefully the coils will net me 1-1.5" of lift. When I installed my TF leveling kit I wasn't as well versed in Jeepology and like a dope yanked off the tags on my coils so I have no idea what I have from the factory Just want to get enough to be able to slap some 35's on while I save up my pennies for the TF 3" LCG long arm kit.

 

Nice, I love the anticipation of some wrenching. My fingertips are sore as hell right now. I had this week off before the new gig and got some work done myself (and snuck in a couple ):

-changed oil
-changed diff oil
-changed transfer case fluid
-rotated tires
-checked/cleaned PVC and air filter
-extended axle breather
-had dealer replace my gas tank (warranty fix for fuel overflow)
-got new license plates and mounted a fairlead plate frame
-installed mische arm rests
-installed MORE dead pedal
-de-badged JEEP from grill
-chopped/cut/painted OEM tire carrier, added mbrp spacer and re-mounted 3rd brake light for 35"
-aligned steering and adjusted toe-in
-light detailing of interior/exterior

 

You might have to consume some American honey

 

Anyone interested , like I said before I'd give a good deal on 2.5 TF coils for unlimited or equal to 3 inch for 2 dr

 

i should be good to go on the 2/25..will check back later after trip to see if i will be able too but as of right now im good to go!!!.

question..??...where are we meeting saturday morning? if the women chooses not to go then ill be heading out about 9 in the morning...saturday...which hotels or whatever are we going to be doing too?

ill pick up a bottle of honey...and probably a 24 case..heheheh...

havent gotten any mods as of yet...too much salt on the ground and need to powdercoat my stuff first...other then that will be picking up a fire ext, my on board air and jump starter, water, gas can, install my high lift...not sure what else is needed to survive..

 

sounds good! i've updated the list of who is planning on going on page 45 of this thread. I think I'll leave it up to snopro to choose lodging accomodations for those planning Sat. overnight in Wilmar as I've never been there and it seems he probably has a better grasp on the area than I. i'd assume we'd either just meet at the Appleton park in the a.m. at a given time or those that choose to overnight could convoy to the park and pick a starting time. I think 9-10 a.m. range would be sufficient.

 

How many people going are going to have on board air?

I usually carry a bunch of various tools, CB, Motorola walkie talkies, hi-lift, recovery gear (shackles, straps, etc.) and I should have a winch on by then but the one thing I don't have is air. I may have that solved by then but maybe not.

As far as a place to stay Wilmar seems to be the closest town with options. Wilmar is about 53 miles from the park. Seems a bit far but doable considering we'd only make the trip once or twice. Wilmar will probably be a better place to get something to eat at night but that's just a guess.

There seems to be one joint in Appleton but i'm sure that's a pretty small town.

Another option would be Benson, MN. There is a super 8 and a country inn and Suites there. It's about 22 miles from the park.

Montevideo is about 27 miles away with a couple of places to stay.

So I think we have options. If anyone has any first hand knowledge that would be ideal.

 

No air here...but is on my list The park is right outside of town so maybe a slow drive to a service station would work too worst case scenario. I actually work with a guy from Montevideo so I'll pick his brain about what that town has to offer.

 

well if thats the case ill bring my portable air compressor..its only a good year but it will work...im going to bring a few tools and stuff other then that...if somethign major goes i do have a tow strap lol!!!!! some recover gear....if the park lets i could bring a little grill and we can grill out there other then that i guess well have to bring out own kind of food. i will probably be there a bit late..the women wants to tag along...but she gets off class at noon..and u knwo how they do it..it will probably be one by the time i leave..and its like a 2 hour drive i think..
One of you fellas can choose the hotel we stay in...just let me know so i can locate and call in advance so the lady doesnt turn into a dragon...
