Let me know if you need any help....I'll be happy to meet you for a Saturday or Sunday wrenchfest.

So who's still on board for this trip?

Jed, we still leaving on Thursday night? 

I'm getting pretty excited, just a little over a month away.  hard to believe we have been planning this trip since.....Dec. 18th

Donavan....you guys still in?  Had a chance to try out the yota yet?
 

Yep, still planning to leave Thursday afternoon.  If all goes well we can be in Murphy and sleeping by Midnight.

OK guys and girls.........

Scott slapped me in the face yesterday......This time three weeks from now, I hope we are buying the last supplies at the Murphy wally world, or heading to the trails.  For all those in the cabin, we can't check in until 2:00.  Based on past history, by the time we get everybody moving, drive out to the cabin and unload the trailers, it will probably be 2:00 (I hope not, but it always happens).

I did confirm that there is a 4 runner Jamboree going on the same weekend.  So, Saturday may be a bit crowded, but Sunday should be a nice day to hit a lot of trails since the Jamboree is over Sunday and many people will leave that day.  Curtis (Superzuki1986) will be meeting us on the Tennessee side parking area on Saturday.  I would like to be able to tell him a good time to meet us.  I'm thinking 9:00am, what does everybody else think.  It will take 15 or 20 minutes to drive from the cabin to where we will be meeting him.  (That drive will be fun with drive flanges instead of hubs).

Also, when is everyone going up.  We will be leaving around 4:30 Thursday afternoon and will get a room in Murphy that night.  I'm pretty sure Donavan is going up at the same time.  What about everybody else?

I can't wait..................

Cabin is Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights.  Leaving Monday.

It's good to hear you are almost ready.  Are you gonna get a shake down run in before the trip.

I will be wheeling locally about 2 days after I find an IFS box that doesn't leak.  that is my big holdup.
the cage work and winch mount will take me 1 day to complete.  then I can clean it up and do some inspection for leaks etc...

an oil pan gasket is needed and I'm not sure if the damn dual cases are still leaking or not? we'll see.  Leaving Monday- sweet
