    Billy, Jack, I am so down for Metal Masher since I broke last time I was on it. It was my first time out with my green Jeep and I tried to scale a wall with an undercut. Found out the rear springs are way too stiff and that a 1310 u-joint is way too small for a D60 and 37"s. After a few attempts the last one stretched the rear axle yoke straps out. I fixed it best I could but broke a newly weakened strap trying the next wall so had to turn around. Redemption! Although I probably won't attempt Widowmaker more than once

    ya, jo and i both got a little ways up rock chucker. then Jo tried widowmaker, but we found his broken shock half way up and stopped him.

    i'd like to try both in the runner, i dunno if its possible without getting my rear bumper changed though. (my *** drags on everything)

    It's official now! Inspired by Jack's post, I just booked my room at Red Rocks for ZuZoo. They gave me a discount (nothing huge, but much appreciated) for being a return customer.
    Now I'm SUPER antsy and ready to head out to Moab.

    Can we go, can we go, can we go........like NOW!?

    Doesn't really look like it.... a few from TX, MN, one from LA, that's about as far East. But I'm not sure if Paul (phines) is coming, he's in VA now.
    Are you still coming?

    I'm thinking about it. I need to convince the wife. But my buddy John is coming out there for a summer internship and he doesn't want to drive his Amigo out there unless he has some people to convoy with (I told him he's being stupid that the drive by yourself isn't that bad lol)

    Jo, did you just book the room or did you call and confirm and earlier booking? When I called on Monday or Tuesday (can't remember which) I asked for a room on the office side and the guy said that it was "pretty much" the last room available for that week.

    Doesn't matter, really, because Moab is coming up SOON!!! Ooof, so excited I think I just pee'd a little.
