If we aren't going to firm up a date for a January run, I'm going to do the 101 class with Bob and the AZVJC. I've not run Upper Terminator or anything in the Table Mesa area, so that'll be fun.

If anyone else wants to do this run, we can make a group even out of it... otherwise it's me and the boy...

Ive done Raw Deal... at night, But wouldnt mind going on Term and or Raw again, be nice to learn some tips on the do's & dont's

FatBob...
Would Term be too much for me? ( 4.5" lift 33" tires open & open) Just curious if I can attempt Term or if I should stick to Raw till I grow some lockers.
I think Im going to pull my sagging leaf and get it re-arched this week too.

It looks like Sc00by and I will be joining Bob and the AZVJC crew for this run on Saturday. I've invited my friend Mitch, too. Don't know if he'll make it.

Anyone else want to join us? It'll be fun...

Nate?
Chris?
the Kuipers?
Michael?

If you don't want to run it, you are more than welcome to ride/drive with Ivan and me, if your schedule allows.
#7
We won't make it. Jonathan's got friends in from New York this weekend for the Rock&Roll Marathon. Enjoy and be safe!
#8
You guys do good. I'll be at work. :sad:

Well removed the saggin leafspring yesterday expected Dunbar Spring to take all day, but 4hr later they call me & tell he its done 8| $64 to have it re-arched.
The end result is an XJ that no longer has that passenger side sagg:)g)


Now on to the front axle, trying to stiffen up my LCA mounts as Ive banged them up quite a bit, heres some Pics of the progress.

Nice. Bob needs to box those like that for sure.
#11
I plan to close off the front, but used 1/2" X 1/2" X 1/8" angle to stiffen the sides, and will use 1/4" plate across the front.
Got too cold out for me so Ill try & finish tmro.

If you still have an open seat, it looks like I can make it
#15
Seat still open.

I'm coordinating with Sc00by about our meeting time on Saturday. We are going to meet up and head that way together. Still waiting to hear if Mitch is going to join us or not.

Anyway, once we get that worked out, I'll let you know what time and I'll swing by the house and get you.

This'll be fun.
