Clrusty's new ride - WrenchFest Oct 8th

Christmas is coming early this year.
 
due to the move back to oregon in early november, we'll be visiting some friends/jana's cousin in georgia that weekend,

i would like to offer up a roof rack and ladder if it something rusty would like, some people don't like the higher COG.

just gotta get some money together for materials, i won't be able to get the surco mounts though, but its only about 50 bucks shipped for the gutter mounts.

its really great to see eveyrone helping, its been great living down here and meeitng all of you guys.

i know i've helped out a few of you in times of need but the fact that i have access to a garage or somewhere to go wrench is really hard to pay back for.

The final pieces for the 4wd swap being the linkage, shifter and late model 4wd console have been donated by Just Jeeps and More from Knoxville. Thanks Dan!!! Who's ready to get this party started...

What address are you shipping it to?

Thanks Shorty for supplying a missing piece of the puzzle.
 
Hey, without thumbing through the entire thread, what size tires are being used? And is there a spare already in the works? If not, I want to handle it. I have a tire guy that owes me a favor, and I can get a factory rim for it.

32's I believe.
 
Anyone know of a state park in TN along 65 or 24? I'd like to stop at one on my way back.

If you go up 24 and get just over the KY border you are at Land Between the Lakes/Turkey Bay. They have a pretty good set of off road trails there along Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley.

Otherwise, from Nashville north to the KY border on either 24 or 65 you are out of luck. There is only about 30-45 miles of Tennessee left after you get north of Nashville before you hit the border.

If you run up 65, you will go though Mammoth Cave National Park around mile marker 53 in Kentucky.

Thanks Dirk I may stop there. I think i'm just gonna say screw it and drive the XJ. I'd love to go to Land between the lakes but i'll be carrying and thats a huge No-no there.
 
Dear Rusty I have a set of 78/15 buckshot mudders (bias ply) they equal 32's....
these are from a buddy over on tnvjc,,mudder,, he said they are equal to 32's and 9.5 wide.
he flex, there is also a place to wheel up around bowling green,ky, its not a state park but if ya wanted to do some wheelin on yur way back.its called wishbone ranch,ive never been there,cant tell ya what its like . or ya could go more est from Eds place and go to fall creek falls.it is a state park and i love it up there,been many times.
 
i'll pick up rack materials next week,

as long as its finished before we move home it'll be all good,

if someone wants to pitch in but hasnt had a chance yet, he'll need a set of surco gutter mounts, the part number is GM100,

a google shopping search is probably the easiest way to find em cheap,


does anyone here have a powder coating connection.
