Dude dont be a DICK! :slap2:
:icon_stop: Making all these plans before I'm ready!
I'm still dealing with suspension issues & need to order shocks!
& Hopfully I wont need a new front shaft, But if I do, AAPofAz. seems to take at least a week before they're ready to ship...
So 4/28/07 seems unfair dude!
I guess you guys could go without me!
but DAMN IT! :verymad: I wanna go too!

What time and where are we metting? I'm doing my best to have that day off.
RocZuk
04-19-2007, 09:19 AM
I say we meet in gorman (mini Rock Section on the southside) and drive out; we'll end the trail back in gorman where our vehicles are.
Blanco
04-19-2007, 10:23 AM
If I can go since someone is too impatient to wait for me! :buttslap:
I'd say we meet up in Fraiser park at one of the gas stations or something.
We can get ice for our coolers & stuff before heading out.
RocZuk
04-19-2007, 11:55 AM
reason I said to meet in gorman was that i'll be trailering and I can leave my truck and trailer in gorman where the trail ends.
Blanco

Yeah but I think it might be harder to find each other in Gorman. :shrug:
Unless theres another trailer comming out as well we could go earlier than the meeting time to drop of your trailer then meet in the easiest place for all..
Maybe if we gave people a little more time to plan this trip we could get more peeps..
Who else besides JoJon wants to go with us? :shrug:

04-19-2007, 03:12 PM
what do you have left on the sammy?
Blanco
04-19-2007, 03:24 PM
Its basically done..
I'm waiting for Shocks now.
I ordered them today.. :ewg:
We'll need to go through it a little after I install the shocks & see how it clears & such.
But I'll probably make the Miller run. :shrug:
You did'nt answer the queston is LimoZuk still going?
RocZuk
04-19-2007, 03:37 PM
yeah it'll probably go.

Hey Eric! :eric[1]:
You dont know :WTF: your talking about.
I just Got New AutoFab front fenders for Blanco & its all set up to get more work done to it, getting it close to Class 3 racing rules..
& I've been visiting Tranny shops regularly trying to get the tranny working right & they all wanna yank it out & rebuild it again when this trans only has around 1000 miles on it.
So I even had Blancos Computer rebuilt & replaced it & that did'nt change anything. ( $163.00 wasted But I figured it was that or let these other tranny shops rebuild it again.)
& I even started a thread asking about swapping to a C-6.
& I just found another shop that will finally work with me & will pulling out the accumulator because they suspect that & then if not that they'll look into the Valve body..
So I'm awarding you this Award that I truely feel you've earned! :cheers:

04-24-2007, 12:14 PM
I'm totally game for some rock crawling in Gorman this Saturday. Damn that grapevine haul up the hill is a #itch but my little Jeep will be saying "I know I can, I know I can" LOL. I say we leave a little earlier then 10:00 a.m. but that's just me.
For those who are coming but have never been to Gorman, the rock crawling practice course is about two miles past the first Ranger pay station and it's on the left side of the road which I believe is on the NorthWest side. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Cam, I wish I could camp this time around but I'm picking up my laa-dee later that evening from Burbank Airport so no such luck for camping this time around but I think that would make a great next outing. Bring the bumper dumper on your Bronco, lol.
CP
Blanco
04-24-2007, 02:26 PM
Hey Baja Gorman has lots of Pit Bathrooms & I agree 10am is too late of a start.
& trust me in my Sammy I know all too well about going slow with the Big Rigs going up the GrapVine.
& since I put the 33's on I lost all use of 5th gear again.:rolleyes:
& I think it would be much better to meet at the Jack in the Box at the frasier park off ramp.
If we meet in Hungry valley we're all gonna start playng around there & will get a VERY late start on the trail & that trail is pretty much a most of the day run.
So I think those with trailers should meet at the 4X4 practice area early around 8am & the rest of us should meet at the Jack in the Box at 9am..
get breakfast & ice for the coolers while waiting around for who evers late & then hopefully be heading down the road by 9:30/45 am from there it take about 20 minutes to get to the off roading anyways..
& then we finish entering hungry valley & head out to the 4x4 area..
& the biggest bonus for those of us with out trailers is it will be FREE! for us.
Last time I did'nt say any thing at the ranger station & they charged me like 6 bucks or whatever & couchslouch told them they came in through Miller Jeep trail & were just trying to get back on the road & they were not charged. :cheers:
& Eric, nice to see she's gonna let you go! :079[1]:

Not only my mouth to feed anymore, so that comes first. What channel radio y'all gonna be on. If I am late, which I would be if I work early, I would just find ya guys. Or romp up the Miller trail, and when I have a Sammy underneath me. I'll know I have found you guys. LOL

Not sure what trail this is but there is a nice tight twisty trail just on the Northwest side of that straight hill climb that is closed for maintanence. It's about half a mile from that point and it's killer. I ended up stuffing my rear wheels up into my rear quarter panels because of all of the flexing. I may decided to hack it up and slap on some poison spyder panels in the rear.

04-26-2007, 02:47 PM
Heres the Latest Plan..
We leave Jack in the Box at or abouts 9am heading to the trail.
While at Jacks we can get breakfast & use the Bathroom ( There's no Bathrooms until we reach Hungry Valley )
Theres a couple of Gas Stations there too so we can top off our tanks & get ice etc...
If you have a CB please use Channel 4 to reach us..
Does anyone wanna camp out over night?
& whats the latest head count? :shrug:

it was just a joke. last trip wheeling all day @ Big Bear I only used 2 gallons of propane; i'm stoked (compared to 8 gallons of gas when I had my rich running carb on there). I still have 6 gallons in one tank and 10 in the other.

i'll bring my BBQ out though.

NO offense Cam, but your retarded looking self on a friggin toilet seat doesnt' really do it for me. lol.. I don't roll that way.
Why cant you do both?
would love to do both. Only problem is my wallet doesnt' agree.. I realize that my having to feed 4 mouths equals one sitting at the buffet for you.But, I have to do this every night. My boy's first time going (he will be 11 months) and the fact that all the extra **** I have to bring. Along with how much gas is "going" to be and having to fill up my rig and the wife's? Naw, not economically logical.
Yeah I think you picked a fitting screen name for your self.
Yep, I sure have. Unlike yours. You have to remember, while you were "dying" to fix up your mustang, driving a kia and fixing that up as well. I was wheelin' long before you even knew what a Bronco errrrrrrrrrrrrr a Sammy was. Wait, you still don't know what a Bronco is cause your ***gin out a great machine into a pre runnner.. LOL...
Y'all be safe.. And "maybe" next time for me. If I have the option to camp for 4 to 5 days at Kern with my family, and then the option to go on a day run with a bunch of ugly mofo's..?? LOL
I'm takin Kern. Sorry Cam. Family comes first.

DIRECTIONS
Ok so for you guys that dont know where this Jack in the Box is:
5 FWY north about 45 minutes past the 118 fwy, I think its the 1st exit once you pass gorman to the Fraiser Park exit. ( If you reach the rest stop, you went to far! )
Your see a Big Flying J Truck Stop/Hotel on your left as you approch the off ramp.
Turn left at the Off Ramp you'll see the Jack in the Box on your right after you go under the fwy.
Please get there early So we can eat & everything else we need to do before heading out to wheel. :)
Departing to the trail from Jack in the Box at 9am!
