Pete, Front Locker? Impressive, Sir.

And YES, I have been drinking... again. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

I'll call you tomorrow. I am meeting my dad for lunch - it's his 70th B-Day, so I'm not gonna miss that.

I disconnected my front sway bar and installed the longer Indy4X tie rod sleeves tonight. Mark Makers helped me with this project... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/drunk.gif" alt="" />

It's all good. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" />

Chris, get your rig ready for Memorial Day - Clayton, OK. You need to come to the DFW-TX 4WD Club meeting March 9th. It is close to you, in Euless. I'm gonna try to be there.

Chris, you should have been there. It was a BLAST. Great weather, and lots of good trails.

I found a tree, the hard way. Isuzus are wider than Jeeps.

Pete's Trooper works great. The front and rear locker, along with the 33 in Mud Grapplers, made easy work of everything he pointed it at. Very capable rig. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

I'm gonna get some sleep now. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/sleeping.gif" alt="" />

yeah that was the spot where we both had trouble...the root was gone too, so that helped a little.

steering was a little different but not bad at all. sometimes it just felt like i was working without power steering...but only in a few spots. the trade-off was well worth it.

we didn't enter the blind man's bluff or the obstacle course. we just ran the morning and afternoon trail runs. steve won two times at the raffle though <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/nana.gif" alt="" />
