- Area BFE is AWESOME (And needs donations from all of us! :thumbup:)
- MacGyvr gets retard-funny when drunk
- Charles makes a great fuel sponge
- Led tried to break Heep II ...... and failed!
- Cracked AW4 cases CAN be welded and work again
- European right hand drive XJ's can be cool off road rigs (Never did find out who that belonged to...... :dunno:)
- Squeezing an LS1 into an XJ makes for one cool and unusual power plant
- Rick Norman choreographed the original "Helldorado Ho-down"
- I got URF'd
- Jeep JK's tend to "panic" when surrounded by XJ's at the Show-N-Shine
- Kudzu gets down right ANGRY when JK's "panic"
- Utah crosswinds on I-70 WILL snap your fiberglass CB antennas like a twig
- 3 heavilly modded Tacomas struggling in Area BFE - Test Zone 2 were OWNED by a Colorado Truggy, a Michigan LS1 XJ and an XJ with Wisconsin "BLOOSE" plates........ :D
- Hydraulic adjustible suspensions are just plain bad-ass
- Stewie got confused..... you're supposed to "wheel" in Moab, not "wrench"..... :D
 
Wait.... a Michigan LS1 XJ? Did John Bjorum stuff a new powerplant in that really nice 96?
 
John isn't real savvy with the internet, so don't expect any LS1 write ups. He only took a few pics during the install - not unlike most of us that went to Moab, he was finishing the install at the last minute before the event so I'm sure he didn't stop to document and photo with a write up in mind. But PM him and I'm sure he can answer your questions or send what pics he has. He's 96Classic here.

Now, back to the original thread topic........... :D
 
JK's work best when in Drive instead of reverse. {cough}JohnJohn{cough}
 
They work either way.

Woolworth's got your prints back yet Fred Flintstone? or is there a little bird in you camera that pecks out the image on piece of stone?

Yup, too bad we didn't get any vid of JJ stabbing the gas in Reverse on back-to-back obstacles on the Pickle run......HIT IT!:wierd:

Things I learned in Moab:

Arches sucks after you drive Moab Rim and take a look at Moab from up above.

Pack Creek Campground is free for military. You get what you pay for.

The best part about breaking a D30 shaft is watching Rev gasp in amazement when all the bolts come out of the rust free housing with your fingers.

My wife is amazing. Yes, I left her on Moab Rim. And yes, she hiked all the way up and all the way down.

Nate will wash dishes as long as you continue to speak fake spanish.

Withen 10 years, all of Moabs rocks will be in John's backyard.

Hitch-hiking isn't a dead art.
Seven year old booze debts repaid should come with a warning label.
MacGrubers buggy doesn't need a driver, but could swap the cop lights out for real headlights and a muffler.
Kegs disappear really fast when several Moab PD Chargers arrive.
Gas tanks are better removed while empty.
Allow three days to determine that the tube of foul-tasting goo I thought was chap-stick... really isn't.
There is no better cure for a two megaton hangover than Hells Revenge with Led & co.
All snivel gear left in camp is worthless. A borrowed hoodie is priceless.
Rev isn't the DF I imagined, and Susie is cool too.
