I think the coils would make life so much nicer than leafs, but what do i know, im just a 1 timer passenger at that. Are you guys going with the rubithon group or just as a club group going to have fun? I think once my truck is closer to being finished, i would like to try this trail out once again, this time as a driver. I dont have a lot of experience at it, but it would be fun.


home sick today with the normal flu bug.

We're just doing a club run, no connection to Rubithon.

Are you on the 80'scool cruiser mail list? A couple of us did a "Mini" Rubicon trip with them two weeks ago. It's a nice intro for wagon guys, a short run with excellent spotters that gives you an idea of the "flavor" of the trail without committing to run the whole thing.
