Measurements? When you unbolt the stocker, the whole front is gonna pop to the side cause its had offset pressure. Usually pretty close to how much you need to lengthen it. I eyeballed and kicked mine abit when I went from stock to adj.

Since I know it is very important to use the proper precision tool in order to get the measurement EXACTLY right, what size boot did you use to kick it with?

Haven't heard any publicity for this years ride yet.
Jeep jaunt will be on October 23. The jeep jaunt jam which will start the pre-registration is on August 28? I'll post that date when I can confirm.

My wife knows some of the KTDY radio people and got this information for the Jeep Jaunt in Lafayette:

The 'jeep jaunt' takes place on October 23rd this year, and the registration kick-off will take place on August 27th at Sterling Automotive in Opelousas.... that is the first day we take registrations... On that day, the registration forms will be available online at the ajrf.org website!! You can print the form, fill it out, and mail it in.

I've been told it's pretty fun. Not sure about trails if any...We'll probably go.
