I have a feeling my jeep won't be done, but I'm planning on going anyway. Will bring tent camper and wiskey in exchange for an open seat. Alternatively I will be in the garage trying to Finnish my heep over this weekend. Will trade beer and food for assistance.

We all have a lot to get ready, worst case I'll be camping and drinking. I'm still ging to try to be ready, but it will be a long shot.

What needs to be done before you are ready?

I'm basically at the point where if my rig starts and moves then I'm wheeling it.

Need to install front axle, Finnish installing rear, and adjust pinion angle and arms. Connect and bleed brakes. Install arb compressor and wiring. On the bright side my new rear adjustable track bar and new steel bushings for one of the front control arms came today. Not giving up just can't see the light yet, I'll be forging ahead over the weekend.

I officially threw the towel in today.  Told Tammy that I will be rigless and that my spot will be open.

Spend the weekend at my house we'll get mine up and running. Sell your ticket and run trail 12 for free, stay in the camper, your own queen bed, I'll bring wiskey and steak. I have a ride along ticket for you, all paid for.

What do you think Tim?

Things are looking up, rear axle and drive shaft are in, need to be fine tuned. Front axle is in, needs adjusting. Arn compressor is mounted and wired. Rear air line is run. All links are anti seized and just need to be torqued. Novak adapters rock trac cable shifter is in.

I think I will trailer it up but I'm going to make it. Woot!
