Rausch, but there's also a place in Laurel owned by Eastern Shore Jeep Association that hosts monthly open wheel days, no rocks just mud and wood trails. Sometimes the club hosts or joins an event with an obstacle course in the event like this last weekend at the Fairgrounds. Where are you located?

Sweet name! I'm Matt *last name withheld to protect the innocent* I'll keep up with the fb page. I know I've seen your Jeep around. There's a ton of them in the area

Weekly Update:
This week i had to work so I got there afterwards. Main point of the night was to get the jeep rolling if we needed to move it. That meant getting the brackets on the front axle welded on and the rear wheels on. After some shifting and moving around we positioned the axle and tacked the brackets on before dropping it again to get it on all angles. While the axle was out we boxed the upper control arm bracket, just piece of mind and we had scrap to use. These lower control arm brackets look like a full 1" higher up than stock, really looking forward to seeing them when the Jeep is on it's own weight to see the angle. Put the new tailpipe on and rear wheels on while Oldblue was welding, feels good having the rear of the jeep on it's own weight again after all this time. It definitely sits higher in the back now after hanging for so long and virtually no weight in the back. Seeing the wheels on the ground the rails line up perfectly too, couldn't ask for the fitment to be any better. Next is to clean, paint, and reinstall the axle.
Notice you can't see the bolt holes for the arms.
