Wait, you sold your Jeep and bought a Taco? Isn't that some sort off Jeep blasphemy?

Old man emu: 885 or 886 coils, 10 MM lift enhancer, CS047 rear leaf springs, N140S front shock, n182 rear shock.
Total chaos: Upper control Arms.

265 (or 285) 75r16 LT tires BFG KM2's are nice

OF course you could go with an adjustable coil over like Icon, Fox or Maybe Camburg.

will be making event my priority for july.
booked rooms at best western park-vue. 1-775-289-4497.
spoke to charlotte, rooms are $71 with AAA discount.
queen bed with fridge on ground floor.
maybe we can get a jeep block party in the parking lot if other motel rats make reservations at this place.
it's the closest motel to Ruth, other than sleeping in your jeep at the phil's oasis.

All the runs should be stock friendly. Dinner on Saturday night will be provided by the Club. Friday nights dinner might be a potluck style dinner. We will post more info about what the dinner plans will be as time gets closer. No matter what happens, it will be a great time on the trails and at Party Central (Geno's house).

All,

For those that can stay for Sunday July 26, we will be working on the Dog Springs Cabin up on Mt Moriah. We need to put a new roof on the cabin. Hoping that this year it does not rain when we get done so we can take the back way down.

Geno

I got all twisted around up there last year and took the back way down in the rain (by myself) and it was cool!
The old cabin just after the gate, 3/4 of the way down that steep down hill, just after the zig zag through
the trees. Very cool run! :D We should be there.

will plan on staying over sunday for the cabin run/work day.
any supplies i need to bring from home?
last year it rained and the drive back down the mountain actually had wind shield wipers as a necessary option to see the trail.
looking forward to the adventure.
