She's a little nervous about me attempting some of those more difficult trails when I've not had time to really get a feel for the Jeep, and I can't really blame her...but I'll definitely keep an eye on the thread though, so if there's a chance I can make it I'll let you guys know...sounds like the group will be rather large and hard to miss too.

My name's Jon btw, nice to meet you all! I took the XJ up behind Bountiful today to give it a little shakedown cruise, get used to how it flexes, etc...pretty nice rig I snagged!

Nice to meet you man hope we can get that jeep put to put it to work it's a nice rig

You should be fine Saturday. The last time I did Metal Masher, we had a stock XJ with 31" BFG AT'S and he got through fine. All the big stuff is bypassable. If they are still planning on Cliffhanger and the Rim Sunday, I'd advise riding with someone. It would be hard to avoid body damage without armor on those trails

Yeah the rockers will be in danger in a few spots, I believe. But it'll be all good. Is someone getting video??

I just changed the oil in the tahoe, double checked the fluids in the XJ, & tightened up some bolts. Then tested her flex!

Possibly, I purchased a camcorder online the other day, it just depends on whether it arrives before go time. I'll definately have the camera though.
