Thinking around 730-8. but depends on how things roll in the AM lol. I will be bringing a Toyota so chandler wont be alone LOL

 

Nope. Sounds like heat soak though, the fuel rail gets to hot and the fuel boils. once it cools everything goes to normal.

Mine will do that but never that bad, it will just stumble on restart for a few seconds, then clear out. Hood vents/cowl hood/spacers some time soon if I can pick one haha

 

well then instead of heading to the parking lot cruise up to camp, breakfast should be done by 8-830

 

Few times when it won't star I've sprayed some starting fluid and it fires right up but only when I really need to go if not I wait until it starts but I'm tired of waiting around... I'm not a big fan of hood vents.... But I might just have too if it keeps doing that..

 

Just another 1/2 mile past 5 mile? is it buy the bottom of Jacob city rd?

 

yes and no.

just pass the snakes parking area until you see the sign that says sunshine canyon, then turn right up that dirt rd, you should be able to see the motorhome from the hwy. if you don't then we're up a bit higher in the trees.

so maybe 1/4-1/2 mile from the snakes but not close to jacob city either

roughly here where the green arrow is where we'll be.

 

OK, we should be able to come harass you!

Hey Tristen - there is an XJ making it up your metal masher ledge at 0:45. It is linked in the rear, a little stretched, and on 38s or so....but still

 

thats funny, 2 yrs ago that XJ was on leafs and couldn't make it. guess he got revenge, so there is 1 XJ to make it ha ha

wheeled with them guys in colorado a few times, the president of that club is good friends with a buddy of mine so he showed us around there a bit.

 

oh my... now I know its "possible" lol he started further over to the right then I was... I'll mount it and see how it looks with my new clearance out back lol

haha, just a little throttle... I need a cage lol

 

What would you guys say it's more important a rear locker or winch? Which one would come first?

 

Im not saying what time we are meeting up anymore go back and read through the threads to find outwhat time a where we are meeting

 

Both lol

I would buy a locker and a strap first.

 

I bought my winch first its all up to you
