Can't go this weekend, in fact most weekends for the next few months are tied up. We are building a vacation home and we are building it ourselves so we will be pretty busy for a few months. Dang it. BUT, if there is a group going on one of the weekends we take off then I'd be thrilled to join everyone.

Me too Chex_mex, me too. It's going to be a while before he has time to build those custom bumpers for me, thats why we went with the temporary fix for now. He's put a lot of time and money in this build for me so far, I really LOVE my XJ. It's my daily driver

Jeep was still overheating this week, put a new radiator cap on it and it seems to have fixed that. We hope. The air conditioner compressor keeps freezing over. Other than that it's wonderful, I LOVE it. Appreciate the invite to go fishing but we will be in Carmine next weekend.

yeah these things always have overheating issues unless you stay on top of it, i've already put a flow-cooler water pump, 3 row all aluminum radiator, 185 t-stat, and a fan override switch. still thinkin bout puttin in an electric fan in place of the clutch fan as well. but at least we have the newer style cooling system (vs the pressure over flow bottle, since they always end up cracking)
