DrRandy marking his spot

after a run to the parts store for some oil and kitty litter

6 qrt of oil...wasted...

Me? What oil??

Yup, me....new drain plug, 6 qrts new oil....

 

[jeepgeek2002]

drain plug came out?
wierd!

dont do what i did once.. i called 911 and ask for someone to inspect my gas tank leak while it was parked.. 2 fire trucks blaring later .. neighbors thought i burned the place down . and they jumped out in full gear.. to give a 2 hand fulls of this gas asorbing stuff..
My insurance paid for it.. lol

[DrRandy]

Dam....you guys are quick. For some reason i KNEW when i checked the board tonight this would be on here...it only happen a few hrs ago! So far so good, I'm wheelin' in the morning.

The PO took the XJ to the express oil places and they used an impact and stripped the drain plug, It had/has a compression type plug in....till i get a new pan...might just drill/tap this one up a size.

BTW: the oil needed changing anyway......

 

[ChuckstrPT]

Lets start with dinner....
The gang....Stump meditating with his big beer....

The TN crew... (thanks for the tank skid, springs, and stickers!)

Da big boyz...and their empty glasses

 

[ChuckstrPT]

And the trail....
Stoney Lonesome OHV Park, Breman, AL (Cullman area)

No one wanted to make this the first climb of the day

So I found this one... pretty steep, with some nice loose dirt at the top, just before 3 large rocks....

DrRandy having an attempt at it

and about to bounce his way over the rocks

 

[ChuckstrPT]

High2by was next in line

and then StumpXJ

There's a good look at how big those rocks were...Stump, what are you running, something like 37" tires???:cheers:

well...maybe not 37's...and away he goes...

 

[ChuckstrPT]

Last but not least, was redneck, with 6.5" lift and 31's...geared:wave:
Here he comes....

and there he goes...if you blinked, you missed it:doh:

The Motley crew....

and from behind.......

We all had fun, dinner was a blast, and thanks much for the brake repair on the trail! Even the 4 yr olds had fun!:scared:
We'll do it again soon:cheers:

 

[DrRandy]

Heck Yea....GREAT TIME!! Glad everyone could make it, great safe trip. Glad StumpXJ and High2By were able to make it. WE HAVE TO DO IT AGAIN!!

I'm tired i'll post pic's Monday evening after work. Hey Alex be sure you post that pic of Aaron FLYING up the rocks, I think he had 1 tire on the ground!

 

[Stallacrew]

I gotta say I had a blast. I appreciate being added rather last minute and special thanks to Steve for letting me ride with.

On to the pictures:


Checking out one trail that looked bad but really wasnt

I really thought Mark was gonna bust it on the way down:

Since Andy gave Steve hell about droppin a plug in the parking lot, he had some fluid issues too:

...and look who came to the rescue (OK Steve is in the picture, but Stump was the one who stopped the leak) Nice gloves there Andy!

All the XJs lined up

He must be a full droop. He's also on less than 4 wheels

stump+xj=StumpXJ

Magellan making the executive decision that it would be best if we turned around.

I'm not the best spotter... at all.

Nice pose though.

Before the trails when everyone was clean:

Gotta do that again sometime soon, and hopefully I'll have my Cherokee going so I can join.


Here is the link to the album if you want to look at the rest of the pictures. You can copy and use however you wish.
