Hey guys,

Was good meeting you and hitting a few trails this afternoon. Maybe next time they will be a little more muddy, rather than a bunch of powder! I came home and did a rough cleanup job (just on the interior), and it took me nearly an hour. There is still a ton of dust on the inside, but it will have to wait until another day. Look forward to the next ride!

And after trying to keep up with Red, with his cold air and programmer, I might just have to look in to some of these things.

I hear ya. It took me over 2 hrs to clean all that powder off the Jeep. Did inside and out. I liek the Herculiner, but is still a pain to clean. Took a soft brush and soap to the inside of it.

Great to meet you guys as well. Had fun. At least we now know Swann Creek is only best after a rain.

Insane, hope your wife is feelin better.

Til next time

Well, I had some Armor All cleaning wipes and wiped until I ran out...Then I got a wet towel and went back to work on the backseat! I still need to vacuum all the dust out of the carpet though...UGH! Maybe I'll just get bama to blow it out for me...ha! I think it would be better to take that carpet out. You up for painting another jeep Red?

My wife is feeling better now...she said thanks for checkig..

With the right winch, your friends don't need a lot of mods.

Mine should arrive this week, so save your money everyone - when you want to drive up the side of a cliff, I'll be more than happy to throw you a line.

When I first saw how large the shipping box was, I was wondering if the track bar was somehow collapsible and sitting at an angle inside. Nope - just a bunch of packing paper, and other smaller shipping boxes/envelopes providing additional protection. Was relieved to get the lights as I had ordered them on Sept 1, so almost two and half weeks ago.

Just wanted all to know that the JKS Adjustable Front Track Bar showed up (actually last week, but forgot to make mention of it). Was worried that since the tube wall diameter was less than many other aftermarket TBs, it would be some cheap lightweight junk, but it's pretty beefy, and should perform admirably.
