Thanks Brian! Let's see how those new doughnuts do next weekend.

I think I posted a response to your thread over on LRO, but had another thought...if you go with the RN bolt on, I'd suggest getting a short piece of cable and tethering it to the truck. Knocking it loose on a trail would, having it come off later on the road would be even worse...

I seen thanks I'll to see if my friend will be back from Chicago to tack it for me

I'm guessing you mean nosivad_bor (Rob Davison)...his white D1 was totalled, so he's now got a '99 D1 in dark blue. It's torn apart in his garage and AFAIK hasn't seen a trail since last January, so I doubt he'll be out...

I will lead a group or follow or whatever.Im trying to get up there friday morning so I can whel friday too.

For those that have not been to Rausch's "new" side - here are some videos from a random outing with Dana and others...

The link is to one of several videos from that day on the right side of the screen.

That's fine with me. I'll still bring pork roll though. Can you put your french press on a stove? Most I've seen you have to add already hot water to. Can you bring random crap like paper towels, garbage bags, etc?

I'm planning on leaving around 4pm on Friday. I'm going to make a quick stop on the way at tsc to get a new shackle for my receiver. I'll tell you that story later. Should be there by 730-8pm

UPDATE:

I will NOT be wheeling on Sunday or staying Saturday night. My son and his team won the first round of play-offs this weekend and the next round is on Sunday. I have to have him home for a good night's sleep.

I did a lot done to my truck for this weekend. I have my exhaust sealed for the first time since I have owned the truck, I got the CB and antenna mount mounted, turn signals fixed, Maglite mounted, power steering leak fixed (FINALLY!) and a few other little things.

Hmmm, I may have to stay Friday night now if I can get a refund for the Saturday dinner...

I can pick up a USA MADE shackle for you for $20, Brian. they are orange though

I was going to get one from fastanal, as there's one right by me, but I want a 7/8 shackle, and they are much more. Someone at work stole half my recovery gear during irene.

Now just wait a cotton-pickin' minute! You mean to tell me the L8 Super Rig will be on the Medium team and I get put on the A-Squad? My truck ain't "all that".

Of course I ain't afraid of body damage...

I wonder what it takes to bend a panhard bar? Its the only one that is stock on my truck.

That's where I got the 3/4" ones for $20. I picked up a couple for Brian. You shouldn't need anything more than these.




SHACKLES

Ed, did anyone contact Rausch and tell them we are camping? According to their website, we have to have reservations to camp there.

You don't need them, they just ask that you make them as reservations get first priority. Looks like they have fair camping rules. I may camp Friday night.

Didn't someone need my turkey fryer burner anyway?

We need the propane burner for lunch Saturday.

Come camp Friday, we'll be passing the potcheen around the campfire
