[Gixxer Jon]

Yea, Im a come out in the Runner and check it out. Jrock said something about not moving down here until about a month.

[Sway]

Make sure you guys dont go camping with J, he like to watch Brokeback Mtn when he camps

So I guess no more UC runs for awhile? Them damn Broncos are winning!

Don't you start  I wasn't the one marking their territory  . And I went to SLEEP early so I could wake up early to get out wheeling  .

UC will have to be on hold for a while since I don't expect you guys to make it to Johnson Valley any time soon  .

[Gixxer Jon]

Hey Ed,

          Do you know of anyone who might have 2- 35x15x12.5 tires that i can use for mock up? They dont have to be mounted since i have an extra set of rims. i would like to barrow them for taking measurements/visual when doing the front lift this weekend.

[superyota]

i don't but i know someone who does.  i'll give you call this afternoon

[jrock]

Man, I'm oobber close to moving. I'm exited!

[Sway]

I might be headed that way next year, or maybe more closer to LA? Wife looking at schools out there for Nurse/PA. Since you did your cross over, you should leave me all your push pull crap

[Gixxer Jon]

Well Im still looking for a rig, so not sure if I will find one with hi steer or not? I was just messin around tryin to get something free off J, I know him from another site an met him awhile back.

[Gixxer Jon]

Ed,

     So you said people are going out on the last sunday of the month? Are they still planning on going out to behind taft or somewhere else? I should have the rig done before that.. I've been held up, Monday im getting some spring hangers made since my friend has access to a hydraulic brake at his work.. 

[superyota]

Yup, the plan is to go wheeling out by Taft somewhere where a couple of the guys said they found some trails that looked like fun.   Think I'm going to head out there before hand and check it out, I have a feeling they are going to be dirt roads, and if that the case, we will do freeway ridge again.  Want to go?  I'll probably just take my chevy out there to check it out, I'm having a hard time thinking there might be anything out there that could be more than a fire road.  Did you get the bolts you needed yesterday?

[Gixxer Jon]

I'm having the same feeling about behind taft unless they go somewhere closer to new cuyumba or maricopa area then I dont know.

I got grade 8, 3/8" allen cap screw at lowes yesterday, Tend to go there before home depot since lowes gives military discount.

Im down to going up freeway ridge or where ever, I don't see why i wont have my rig done before then, so with swapping the downey rears up front it gave me 2" forward & a 5" lift. (2" more then the front springs)

so today im going to start fabbing my front hanger and push the axle forward around another 1" to 1-1/2" and i might drop the hanger an inch or so and give me a total of a 6" suspension lift..

Oh and i ordered a ps box and it should be here today, (already tapped for hydro)

re: taft, i will not make it city cleanup day that weekend and will be out with YFC of kern.
but uncle blow up a 56 gmc 4x4 in the 70's in the area =/

re:MCR9
any one signed up

[Gixxer Jon]

Im for sure going to MCR#9 im going to sign up in a few weeks after talkin to a couple more ppl about going 

[jrock]

I'm moving March 28! Start work on March 29 at 8 am. Yay.  Now to find a place 

[Gixxer Jon]

Bump   

[jrock]

So finding places to live... not terribly easy  . Anyone in Bakersfield willing to let a random guy crash on their floor for a day, maybe two?  IF I can't find a place. I come into Bakersfield on Sunday the 28th.
