Anyone in the Knoxville area?
On another note my bumper came in today. Its not the high roller one Tony has its an ebay special, but really well built and seems very stout.

dude that bumper looks good, ive got a factory bumper and a brush gaurd.
i want a tube bumper bad, im takin machine shop in college so between a lalthe and a CnC machine i might be able to come up with a design.
might settle up and have someone build me one though i dont have a pipe bender. and i think the toughest lookin jeeps got a straight steel bumper like urs with some type of tube design on it. or full tube bumper with fog lights and a wench..looks so good

Looks like I'm in. I'll be working in the area tomorrow and staying over so I'll swing by in the company truck. Guess I'll be the old man in the group. I'll just look for XJs and you'll know me in the red F150 with the white shell and ladders (kinda looks like I'm a painter).

OK so you got me by a couple of years and 3.54 and 3.55 are basically the same thing. If it's factory they are 3.55s. Different gear mfgs. made them with slightly different ratios but they will work fine together.

we could always meet at a different parking lot and roll into wild wings as a convoy
Like perhaps at the pilot gas station across the street. This would also give us a better chance of finding parking together and getting a table together.
