[Mudstud]

I should be able to make it. Doing some work on the XJ and need to do a shakedown run before Moab.

[carwash]

I might make it down for the day on the 10th. Where you camping, and how early are you heading down on Saturday?

[94Dodge Truggy]

Early! Does not matter where we camp.

[scarface]

If my lift is in and installed I will try to make it down. Hope I don't break it, dont have a tow rig or trailer yet.

I will still be going mike... and probably two other rail buggies in tow as well... we are like gnats.

[mike shelton]

great,,, will you buggy be ready by then?

[Mudstud]

Im still tagging along. Been working on the XJ installing new HD Track bar, BDS upper control arms, extened bump stops and new bushings where needed. Ordered new rims from QuadraTec with 4" back spacing. Trying to get a little wider track.

Scott, I don't know a whole lot about auto motive electronics but if you need an extra set of hands let me know.

[94Dodge Truggy]

If you are having a large bon fire soon let me know cuz I have somethin to throw in it mudstud!

[carwash]

great,,, will you buggy be ready by then?
No, will be in the vw rail... speedy death machine.

[mike shelton]

ok,, thats this weekend. i,m ready to go for one. how many are going for sure? i rode there this weekend and did carb, slider. just a little bit of mud..

[carwash]

I can account for myself and at least one more railbuggy, maybe two.

[carwash]

so how many are going... and mike, where are we to meet you? I plan on parking at our usual spot. I should arrive by 9 i hope. Have to make a pit stop to pick up some wheels.

[mike shelton]

yep , same spot. sand lick creek area.. boomhauier is riding with me.. there is going to be some of the we-go fellers ther too. camping at the cabin. thought we might ride over their way in the morning. mike

[94Dodge Truggy]

Well :( post up! How was my trip? The gorge?

[KargoMaster]

Dunno, I missed the bus... :o :( :eek:

I got the "on top of Carb" call from Boomie at about 2:00pm saying that Shelton just busted up a(some?) front axle shaft(s), and that our boys were having some troubles of their own... braking issues or whatnot...

Instead, I stayed at home Saturday and had some much needed quality time with the family and then went up north Sunday to pick up a shaved 14 bolt. (it lost 1-5/8" off the bottom) it's nice to think that MAYBE one piece of the build is about ready...

[mike shelton]

good day in the woods guys. carwash had some battery and charging troubles, but i gave him a deka 1000 and no more trouble for him. lost the rear brakes on another so i winched and pulled him up carberator and in the process busted a front cromemolly outter. almost backed over a lawenmower. yep a lawenmower on carberator. two of um. i did moonshine twice. widowmaker, devils brew and carberator. gabby

[carwash]

Yes, it was a fun trip, gimme a couple hours to get caught up here at work and i will post up a full trip report in a new thread, and post up the pictures we got.
