Here's a couple shot's of my grandson Franklin helping me fix my beat up t-case skid plate. :)

Gotta get these kids started early in the fine art of building cars. :D

Nice job! Would love to get my kiddos more involved with mine as I progress as well.
 
If you start that kid off on your rig, he's going to think short control arms are the norm. Please get him out from under your junk before you warp his brain.

CRASH..........4 days till takeoff, and my junk is ready.
 
My parents started me off right with a Jeep "PowerWheels"
If only they knew what they had started.
:wierd:

both of my girls love to help work on my stuff, i really enjoy the ?s they ask and the time together.
 
Teaching then to drive seems to really keep their attention! It's not always easy to find things to do together with my Thirteen year old son. Face it, at that age we just aint cool. The XJ has been one of the best investments that I have EVER made, time spent with other NAXJA members on the trails some of the most memorable. I hope all of you know what a positive influence you are to the kids we bring along for the ride. They really look up to you.
Start them early, keep them focused.

At least he won't bump his head on those low hanging, rock draging long arms. His training is coming along just fine. :D

It's nice having the kids next door. Everytime Franklin sees me in the garage or working on the Jeep he comes running.

Re-installed the Mobi-Arc tonight, and replaced a plugged tire, so now my junk is ready to roll.
 
So while you're doing all that the Colorado boys are probably waxing their oil pans and axles...all that bright paint!
 
Geez Sequoia.......

Such big talk comin' from a California guy who's skeered to run Hell's Revenge...... :bawl:

Let's see you drag your junk out to Rd 21 and see how long you last! :rolleyes:

Just 'cuz you're from California doesn't mean you get to talk all big and stuff! :D

Me and my Colorado based UN-waxed oil pan are gonna be there...... Where you gonna be? :looser:

See ya in Moab! :wave1:
 
I try to get mine involved too.......

But one of my twinns is just not there yet! And the other is always there. LOL! At 5 they are allright.

lmao tylor :D Blame your parents for constantly spending each paycheck on your heep :D

In my defense, I spend all MY paychecks on my Heep and not theirs.
This is MY truck and it is all My money. :soapbox:
I wish they would spend some money on it cause then I would have somewhere to mount a 33" spare tire. Oh well:rolleyes:
 
OOPS. Just reread the your post speed, and I am a little slow and just got what you meant and, Yes. I do blame them for making me spend my paychecks.

You know me man...always a smart arse. :D

But like I said man, I might run it, as long as it doesn't look much harder than the mall parking lot I usually run :D

This depends on which group of NAXJA guys you hook up with. My ten year old is still asking me questions that a ten year old shouldn't ask after a weekend with CRASH, Jes & the rest of the Sierra bunch down in Johnson Valley. On the drive home he commented to me that, "That Jes guy is kinda shifty". Maybe we should start having a rating system for trail runs. Anything the Sierra guys have a hand in gets an NC-17 designation right off the bat.

"Daddy, can we get a goat? Jes says they are lots of fun to take camping. He showed me fun games to play with them."

Thats so cool Richard, Ryan has really been into helping me with mine lately, His motive is he wants to go Jeep camping again, he has been designing my exhaust
