I just wanted to say thank you!!! This was my first 4x4 trip with my FJ and you all made it a very excellent experience. Thanks again
The south loop was so much fun.
I am excited to see the pictures.

Great PICS! Thanks. I had a great time. Ready to go again!
I put some pics up at a Yahoo! host
http://new.photos.yahoo.com/rich_j11...60762390117156
I also got a couple good videos. Once I figure out how to compress/convert them to a managable size, I'll figure out a way to host them or share them.
Thanks again,
Rich J

Looks like it was a great time, I wish I could have attended. I was doing my open water dives for certification this weekend so it just didn't work out.

Just wanted to say I had a great time! I really enjoyed wheeling with you all and look forward to the next trip. It was nice to get the FJ out there for the first time. It performed just as I had hoped. Special thanks to Brian for setting this up and next time we need to get more cruisers out there!

Well, I've been playing with these videos, finally got one on YouTube, took a while, but I think I have it figured out now. Let me know how it looks on the other end.

Well, it still says that, I thought it was good to go.
DOH! I'll bet it is because I went in and changed the file description! False alarm! Should be available shortly!

Did the whole thing play? Did it look okay?
I think since I went and changed the title, it has to get "re approved"

I'm still playing with the conversion process, trying to get a better quality, but the upload speed will kill me!

Nice! I've always wanted to be a star! Sorry for the "S" bomb, I'll have to be more aware of the camera next time!

Here is my friend Pat's Jeep I have been telling people about. He is just messing aroung down at Tillimook in the pouring rain. He added the music not me. Until any of our cruisers can do what his jeep can I would stick with the cherokee for now.

Nice! I'll have to show that to my friend. No way he will want a Toyota now. Those can't be stock axles with that big of tires, are they? I always tell people that one of the cheapest 4x4's to start with is the Cherokee because of the availability of the trucks and the strait axles. The 4.0L I6 is a good motor too. And there is a huge aftermarket for those things. My buddy just needs gears and a locker and he will be fine...

he swapped out the dana 30/35 for 44's out of a waggy. he has 5.29 gears and arb's front and rear. this is he trail rig he picked up for 300 bucks. Its a trailer queen as you might say but he can go all out that way on the trail where we have to keep it easy in some cases to make the drive home.

Ya, that would be the first thing I would swap out on a Jeep. The front axle, then the rear. I'm sure the ARB's help a bit too... I wish I could have a trail rig and a driver, but my wife would kill me. I'm limited to one car at a time now. Sure wish I wasn't. Although we did see a 40 the other day and it looked nice. I said can I have one of those? She said if I can find one for $500 I could get it... Any body know where there is a super cheep 40 for $500? Just for a trail rig? I'm guessing it would come with a bunch of rust and no running gear, maybe even a milk crate for a seat... boy would my wife be pissed if I brought home a different car…
