Dealing with low oil pressure and the steering is loose and squirly after installing the new setup. Bought some new bushings and a new TRE hope that cures the steering sloppiness. Oil pressure is another story. I have a shop looking at it to help me narrow down the possibilities. Should have a answer tomorrow.

Where at in Alexandria? I heard the Exxon off Van Dorn was decent-Bart I think...

From what I understand down near Harrisonburg there is George Washington National Forest and there are trails there. There is a thread that pops up from the guys down in Winchester and Warrenton when they are planning a trip down there.

Granted that is a bit of a hike for us near DC.

No kidding? That would be nice. Tired of concrete. I get giddy when I drive on grass.

Do you guys know of a 4x4 shop in the area that you would recommend that does alignments? I just got off the phone with one that wanted to charge me 2 bills for alignment. Yeah that's right 2 bills.
