rteecher, I would really like to make this trip again. Also, I am thinking of hosting a group next spring from the Expedition Portal forum and would like to consider including that run on the planned route. I can't remember how to get there. I really enjoyed the day last year and would like to do some wheeling with you two again. How 'bout it?

More recent XJ photos
I have done quite a bit of work to my rig this summer. One of the big changes is my approach to how I want to use the rig. I have recently been on the Expedition Portal forum and begun to set my rig up more as a camping/expedition emphasis.
The biggest change to the mechanical part was to replace the stock axles to RCV axles in my HP Dana 30. Much smoother and stronger.
I have rearranged the cargo area of the XJ to make the hatchback area a sort of chuck wagon set up with an awning as needed. The rear seat area is set up for camping gear on the driver's side and tool/recovery gear on the passenger side. I'm still refining it, but the arrangement is working very well.

I will be out of town this weekend (13th/14th) but any other weekend will work for me. I would prefer to go on a Saturday since I may camp out at the Hole, but whatever will work best for you ... just to go, that is the real deal. And, I can camp out anywhere along the way. In fact, I may camp at a place I know in the Three Creek area on Friday night and meet you Saturday (or Sunday) at Murphy. We can discuss the details in the coming days.
