Jeepoholic decends "High Dive" out at Moab. Can't wait for 2012.

However, need to get the RIPP SC in Wilbur running right first (it came with a bad MAP sensor which is apparently okay when using the latest new tune, but I may go ahead and buy a replacement on my own nickel).

Guy here on the forum posted this neat pic of the AEV parking lot.

Would it look funny for me to go ahead and put spacers on with the factory Sahara 18inch on Bridgestone Duelers until its time for new tires???

Don't think so, but you could pull them back off if you didn't like the look. Go for it!!

Edit: One of the guys here did this for a while.

. . . the JK did recover to the relief of all.
