You still planning on heading out Flingshot? I just finished installing the Locker so I will be testing it out this weekend, if you are still going I may just go with you.

I was thinking of this http://www.traildamage.com/trails/index.php?id=123

and then this http://www.traildamage.com/trails/index.php?id=174

and maybe parts of this http://www.traildamage.com/trails/index.php?id=175. I dont want to break anything as I need my Jeep to go to work on Tuesday. So I'll play this by ear.

I've got a new creaking sound under my rig. Sounds ugly. I'll be investigating and repairing whatever that is in the morning and I need to locate a spare tire and wheel. At least a 31". Other than that I am ready to go on Sunday AM and would love some company. Wife, daughters and dogs will be with me again.

I would love to be there when you try out that Aussie. That is the one I have pretty much settled on so far.

You up for a second crack at it Sunday?

Here is or trip report when we did it a little over a month ago:
http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1002982&highlight=plane+crash

Bunce School Rd is pretty dam boring and not very scenic, we ran out of time and wasn't able to hit Ironclads. BTW when you get up to the plane crash site there is not much room for parking, so if there are already a few rigs there, you may have to get creative on a parking spot. The whole area is on a good slant, it makes it a bitch to try and set up a grill and cook lunch.

Hopefully I'll have my brakes done by tomorrow afternoon, and if so I'm in for anything either Sun or Mon. And I have a 31" MTR that I have no use for.

Anything I can take the grand on? If so I may be interested.

Great! What do you want for the MTR? Is it mounted on a rim? I'd be willing to help a bit with the brakes and such but I am watching the oldest play softball in the morning. Should be done around 11 or so.

 

[mcantar18c]

Yup, its mounted on one of these, in pretty good condition. Its very lightly used and it has a good amount of tread left, I've never driven on it and I don't think the PO did either. PM me and make an offer.
Hopefully I'll be done with the brakes by 11... I gotta fix the calipers and install them with the new rotors, and then swap in the lines, then the rear shoes, then flush and bleed. If I need a hand after 11 I'll let you know.

PM sent. I can pick it up tomorrow afternoon if we can come to terms.:thumbup:

 

[flingshot]

OK Here's the deal for anyone who might want to partake.

Meet at 3033 Arapahoe Road at Startbucks at 10:30 this am!

Going to Bunce School Road, T-33 plane crash site and Ironclads.

Should take approx 4-5 hrs to complete the trail. You should be back home in time for dinner. Come on, it's a weekend, you can mow your lawn another day.

 

[mcantar18c]

Brakes didn't get finished last night. I live like 5 min away from there too :tears:

Great trip, thanks for having us Scott. Pics to come soon!

 

[in4aride]

Did you guys get all wet up there?

I rained a little bit but not too much, and for a very short while.

 

[flingshot]

Great trip, thanks for having us Scott. Pics to come soon!

I'd wheel with you guys any day. I'll start another thread for pics if that's ok.
Couldn't have been better. Thanks for going with us. Sorry I took you on the extra hike

 

[hurley842002]

Sounds good, we have a ton of pics trying to upload so it will be just a minute before I add any.
