Ya I will Plus Im already expecting problems because the under side of my rockers are not at all straight, and I anticipate a few hours of BFH use, which is why Im not sure if they will be on in time. But we'll see what happens, either way Im planning on being at the Dennys at 8:45ish.

Haha I don't wheel with a full Cherokee anymore, makes my jeep too fat and heavy haha. Plus it doesn't help that I just took out my backseat... Permanently... Goodbye 5 seater I just dropped super money to redo the interior and such. Thank god for Xmas bonus from work!

You've also got EXACTLY a month before this run, just enough time to fix anything else you might break

Same way.... Was even worse is the night I started installing, I only got one on. Next day went wheeling and dented to **** the side that didn't have the slider. Added another hour and a half to that install as well lol

In about a week or so, I'll post up a "who's going thread" just for names and roll call

If you use a strap that stretches a little, bumpers and axles stay where they belong when used as a tow point. The hard part is finding people to tow you that know what their doing and dont pull like an ahole...

You can make a front tow point with some grade 8 or better hardware and some hd chain, bolt through the "frame" holes, its not fancy but it works. Besides how stuck do you think that badass jeep of yours is gonna get?

Ya my buddy with the comanche dropped out because his jeeps out of comishion. So hes riding with me now. And ya i have a wish list of stuff to build and add to my jeep first. And of course gas money would be awesome! But im building rock sliders. And i need to build a bumper for member whidbey4x4. But if i have the gas money and the green bee is running im coming. Regardless of rock rails or not. Im debating of welding up my spear dif with 1/4 plate and putting in just for the trip. Because im betting my almost bald mudders wont do that great in the slippery snow and mudd up there this time of the year.
