Maybe do it at someones house and have plenty of beer on hand.

I'd be up for doing this at my house. I think we would need to start early. I don't think 2 hrs would be enough.

I could cook Hamburgers and hotdogs and have everyone else bring a dish.

Just a thought.

Sounds good Marshall - let me know when and where and I'll post it up.

Any planned wheeling events? We haven't done URE in a while or maybe the new place in pickens.... an OBX trip this fall?

BMThiker · 04-16-09, 10:00 AM

Heather and I discussed an option for a new OTMT location this past weekend. We'll discuss more this weekend at her HAMOM with the Juice and Troll.

Lets do a Pickens trip ASAP and sure...URE sounds good. I've never been there.

Heather mentioned it to me - I'm checking out pics now.

Brock · 04-16-09, 03:55 PM

the lowcountry bastages are going to try URE 29-31 May if you guys want to join us for a combined event....last one before GSMTR and before a couple of us head to FJ SUMMIT in July.

eventhough · 04-20-09, 06:08 AM

First post updated.

I added the URE trip to the first post.

Put a potential May 9 Mother's Day Run @ Pickens ORV Park. Anyone want to head this one up?

Brock · 04-20-09, 05:42 PM

when is the big annual meeting?

eventhough · 05-02-09, 02:33 PM

weze gots some space for HAMOMs - or as my wife calls them "HAMAMABOBS."

IIRC Dave, Matt, Jay and Carp are in line - does anyone want to step up and have their junk wrenched on?

jleeFJ62 · 05-02-09, 06:47 PM

Juice, I'll go ahead and throw my name into the hat for a hamom

eventhough · 05-25-09, 04:38 PM

Bump - first post modified - dates and events added

eventhough · 05-26-09, 06:16 AM

July 26 Adopt-a-Highway added - more info to come

Carp · 05-26-09, 10:45 AM

Are we having OTMT this year? Obviously not at Tellico, but somewhere? As for my HAMOM, it may be a gear change, not sure yet, nor about the date. Our house is up for sale, so I might not be ready by then, depends on if we sell before then.

eventhough · 05-26-09, 10:56 AM

OTMT will have to be planned for another venue with the uncertainty of Tellico being open.

I'm working on a few location and hope to get something posted up soon. It will probably be a longer drive for us - maybe a few hours longer.

any movement on a FALL Cullowhee Expedition style camping weekend this year again?

The listed events are not the only events planned - just those I have dates/info for.

I am not planning a fall Cullowhee trip for UC. There are not any legal loop trails, the upper bald does not have a legal approach, etc etc so there would be a bunch of out-and-backs (maybe one from one paved road to another) and this would make a group trip very difficult. The last few trips out there have overwhelmed the place. UC policy before I became President was the club does not drive closed trails so I don't see it happening while I am President. After the Annual Meeting you'll have a new President and maybe he/she will take the club. I can't though.

99UZJay · 05-28-09, 10:11 PM

Can mine be swapping a 1FZ-FE motor???? Is that too difficult if I have the prep work done?

Trollhole · 05-29-09, 02:54 PM

If you take your old motor out and have a new one ready to go in and don't expect it to be running at the end of the day. Sure. It can be done.

Trollhole · 06-07-09, 06:55 AM

So you have

Black Balsam trip the second weekend in Sept

The annual meeting the 3rd weekend

and the LC boil the 4th week.

That's a lot going on in 3 weeks. Not that I can go on any of these trips due to the baby due in late august. (I will make the annual)

89s rule · 06-25-09, 08:47 PM

Wow June got here fast.WE got back from vacation last week in the 80 and it did great. I am still up for a HAMOM if possible? I need to install my caster bushings in the 80 and poissibly install a few other things depending on how a few things pan out. This could include use of the bender??

BMThiker · 06-30-09, 05:24 AM

How about an A/C Super-HAMOM-wich? Kitty's been driving her wagon around all these years without it, but all the components are there - we think. Any of you other guys in 40's & 60's need to do an A/C refresh? I know someone with licensed equipment and the brains on how to do it

Turkeypen · 06-30-09, 07:32 AM

Yeah, I have A/C in my '82 40, which works if you consider the blower fan running as "works" (insert ratling noise here) . . . sure would love to either get that running or figure out what needs to be done.

jleeFJ62 · 06-30-09, 02:01 PM

July 4 or 11 - Sat - Monthly Meeting @ TBD - Do y'all want to have a July 4th Montly Meeting and BBQ/Gorge yourself on food event?

So whats the plan?

BMThiker · 06-30-09, 02:43 PM

We're out for both of those weekends for a July MM. :(

That would be me. I have all the suff to do 134a, r-12, Freeze 12 (I'll have to buy those) Would even be willing to do a mp39/401a if someone is daring enough.

I have gauges, can taps, and the all important deep vacuum. As well I have a hose crimper if you need to replace your hoses. Even have a gram scale for getting the exact amount into your cruiser.

Also remember if your home A/C goes out this summer give me a call I'm a licensed HVAC Tech. I'm pretty cheap and most likely a lot faster. So far this summer I've gone through 3 jugs of r-22 for friends and family. Can also buy as well replace outside heatpumps and straight a/c units (need some a/c for your garage? lol)

I'm all in for the 11th. 4th is pushing it for me and we need to get the word out.

I'm going to be a poo poo on my BBQ this year. I just don't have the energy. Though I would love to go eat some for a MM.

jleeFJ62 · 07-01-09, 05:56 AM

Steve and I went to Hunt'n Camp off of 25 a few months ago for a MM. It was pretty solid BBQ.

89s rule · 07-05-09, 01:10 PM

I have a birthday party I have to go to on the 11th so im out. Anyone have a press that can do cc bushings for an 80?

89s rule · 07-08-09, 11:42 AM

Just found out I have to work on Annual Meeting day again this year. Urgggghhhh. Any updates on the press for the 80 series CC bushings?

jleeFJ62 · 07-10-09, 08:40 AM

Any word on this month's meeting place?
