Some light wheelng around town

[Ghost00TJ]

HA well we had a pretty good time first ditch Fred doeas a cross camber approach and sone and cras Jordon right out of the passenger seat LOL Yep he bailed..It was only off a bit. Next I try another one and heva he passenger side dragging in the dirt, then Fred trys LOL we are pushing on his roof again so he doesnt flip, Jordon was in again poor kid. So on the way up the hill I try and climmb through some deep ruts....well we had to use the winch and lets say that tube fenders and corner gaurds are in my near future:eek:LOL Fred did say lets pull you out and my reply was"I AINT STUCK"

[Fred]

Around town yes but LIGHT? Thats an understatement. The trail was only a few miles long and we found an awsome little spot down by the Big Piney River, but the last 1/2 mile was pretty dang fun.

The pictures above I felt like I was going over and the LA lift kit is all that saved me. Well the PIX on Adreas phone show the second time. I actually had 2 wheels up in the gully. I had some oil spill onto my manifold and lets just say there are a few dead skeeters.

Then on the way out Larry gave it his all and his Tub and drivers fender flares really paid. We will get some better pix of the after math tomorrow but all I can say is Larry you have some balls!!!

[Ghost00TJ]

Humm I aint stuck

[Fred]

Every time I say OK Larry your done; lets strap it you would move another 6" so you'd say I ain't stuck yet.

[papsolddually]

"I aint stuck!" lol thats like a criminal sayin " I didn't do it"

[Ghost00TJ]

You should see my fancy body work...........

[Fred]

You should see my fancy body work...........
I can vouch for him if he says tire clearance is no longer an issue

[Jacob]

Another good trip. Fred gave my son Jordan a couple of good pucker moments. Larry entertained us all real good. Hey we were even able to pick up a some poor guy to go with us. He was following us up the 44 while we were going and happened to exit where we were going. I pulled up next to him and asked him to go. He followed and had no idea what he was in for. He still had the dealer plates on his Jeep. I would have to say that both Larry and Fred are up for the "Balls of the Day Award". I am really getting the itch for a camping trip. Somebody order some warmer weather.

I will try to get the rest of the pictures up tommorow. Jordan even managed to get some cell phone video of Larry winching out. We need to start assigning someone to camera duty on every trip and quit taking damn cell phone pictures :D

[Fred]

I told larry to grab a camera because you never know what you get into. Can't wait to see the pix Jordon got. The guy that joined us works in the same Company as me so we will be seeing more of him.

[papsolddually]

sounds like you guys get the have fun or a regular basis. oh and if pucker factor doesn't kick in some time, your not wheelin the right way.

Well all live local to Ft Leonardwood. There is about 5-6 of us who hang out on a regular basis although ROSS wasn't with us yestarday. Its kinda cool because we are a "Chapter" of MJ. We have contact cards, stickers, and hats/T-Shirts. We advertise the site regular. Whenever we see a jeep with a post decal we will throw a contact card in the window. Out of every 10-15 cards we make 1 new contact. It's pretty great. Now if Ryan will just make us our own Chapter!!

As for the pucker factor. His son was in a higher speed roll once so he is skiddish and I have to say the first spot I was puckered myself. The second time I was already as far over as I was going and it was entertaining.

We will be meeting up again today to work on Larry's "custom body work" and to do a late lunch early dinner.

[papsolddually]

thats cool. yeah we dont have much of a place here in IN.best place here is called the badlands offroad park. its just shy of a 3hr drive away. most of the guys on the other site im on dont know real pucker factor. most have never been wheelin outside IN. i kinda grew up in KY and TN in the mountains lookin over the side of a 1000ft drop from my uncle's jeeps or trucks. thats pucker factor!

[Fred]

What site are you on? Where in KY/TN? I lived in Clarksville for the past 7 years or so.

[papsolddually]

myself,rebel,and wdw, were all new guys here that just signed up a few days ago. we are all on a site called...Jeepininin.com.its a kinda local little group here in IN.

i got a lot of family that lives all down through KY and TN. they start in Middlesboro,Ky and go over to Johnson city TN. did most my wheelin in the passenger or back seat of my uncles jeep down through Cumberland Gap area.

[TJ 4 the Boxers]

Those are some cool pictures. Our rules for pictures is whoever is shotgun is the photog and whoever is walking and not helping those "I'm not stuck" folk. Unless of course you have a video camera hooked up to the front bumper or dash.

[miljeep]

It's pretty great. Now if Ryan will just make us our own Chapter!!

Moving....

[Jacob]

I will make sure my digital camera is in the Jeep from now on. I will also throw in a hand held CB I have so spotters can use it to communicate to the spottee if needed. One more reason for Fred to get his CB fixed.

[Fred]

Working Jacob, I am going to pick up an antenna today and we can fab a mount, then all I have to do is get the COAX wired and set SWR's. We'll see.

You going to Larry's today? We need the phone software...yes folks the GOOD pics have not been downloaded yet.....speaking of such JAcob where are your son's pix?

[Jacob]

I am hanging with the wife today since she is off for a change. I will get the pics up and can get the software to Larry tommorow.

[Ghost00TJ]

Thanks-- Ross and Fred with the families came over for an early dinner and we worked a few dents out. A few beers later it turned into Fred saying "Let me flat fender your bent fenders" I declined a few minutes and then the die cutter came out.....Sparks flew .........No going back now, but it made it easier to put in the rock lights :D.

There is aboutt 14 pounds of steel and plastic in the trash can now.,

[Fred]

I wouildn't say good as new but we straightened it out a bit. Then I said Hey Larry since your fronts are mashed lets do a flat fender. Naw I ain't ready to cut, Come on It'll look good, OK fine cut if you want.

how bout them new axles? I figured that those new tires was one of the reasons for the new axlles.:D

[Jacob]

So the software worked for you Larry?

[Fred]

Hey DMax did you drive into Eagle Point yestarday and check something under your Jeep then drive away? If so my wife saw you. She said something about a white jeep with a Flat Nasty ORV sticker on it

[Ghost00TJ]

No those 35" are for a 15" rim, I now have rims off a H1 and 36" for the new axles all sitting in the garrage waiting on various parts to come in.

[dmaxjeep]

Hey DMax did you drive into Eagle Point yestarday and check something under your Jeep then drive away? If so my wife saw you. She said something about a white jeep with a Flat Nasty ORV sticker on it

nope, wasn't me. I have not been to Eagle Point and no stickers on my jeep.
