So looking forward to this. Put new tires on the JKU in the spring. Just finished putting in a CB just need to tune the antenna, if anyone has an SWR meter please let me know. My set up has a 4'firestik with a tunable tip.
Lastly I'm in the process of swapping out my worn out 4.5" Trailmaster kit for a 5.5" Rock Krawler kit. Have the control arms and 2.0 remote reservoir shocks in. Tom and Jake at Smashboogie 4x4 got me the parts and are handling putting in the springs, links, trackbars and brackets front and rear, draglink flip, etc. Will have it all ready before that weekend. Awesome people to deal with. Glad to work with them.

Unless I HAVE to, I hate getting up early as hell and driving for hours....lol. I'd rather leave at like 8-9pm Friday night, hopefully miss all the traffic, and be there in the morning come check-in at the park. Matter of preference I guess, lol

I completely agree with you on that one. Just depends how much we have to get done on Friday before we can head out. Sometimes its 1am before we can consider calling it a night.

X2 on this. I was planning on driving in early Sat morning but seeing that so many are coming in Friday night I'm thinking I may grab a room one of the hotels as well. Which comfort inn is it?

Comfort Inn, Pine Grove PA. However, they are all booked that weekend. I called about an hour ago. Like Mike said, that other group has a ride that day too, so they all booked rooms. There are a couple other hotels right in the immediate area, however - they don't offer the deeply discounted rate that Comfort Inn does....

Might be able to go with wife and my son. I've never been to rausch, I've only been to NJ places - mostly wharton in the past. Just wondering how it compares. I do not like the mud and pinstriping of wharton - beats up my jk which is my dd. I'm hoping rausch is better.
