Ok, give me a call when you are able to get out to do some wheeling.
How does July 6th sound to everyone? That's the 1st Tuesday of July. Anyone going on a long trip over the holiday? I'm going out of town but will be back the 5th.

Jeremy and Mike,

The 6th is good with me. Any Brewery is good with me too. Is the location you're talking about Mike out by the new theater?

 

[XJ_Matt]

Yeah its by that Krikorian Theatre, but on Main Street. So were are going to meet up there at 7pm on July 6th.

I will be there on the 6th with my XJ. Hope everyone can make it this time! arty:

One thing I definitely want is rock rails, skids (engine/transfer, gas tank at least), 4.5" lift with 32" tires, ARB bumper, and winch. Further down the road I want ARB lockers front and rear. I don't know if this is the right place to ask or if should ask in Modified tech, but how does an XJ do on the road with a rear locker? I know it'll wear the tires a little bit more and you have to coast through turns or listen to a tire chirping across the pavement. How does it drive just as a daily driver?

I've done a lot of the "Black Diamond" trails with only 31s and a rear locker. If you have a 242 transfer case, just leave it in "full-time" and you'll barely even notice a locker in the rear. Like everybody else said, skids and rock rails are a must.
