Thanks peanut, I spent about a year doing serious research on all the parts, Dynatrac vs. Currie, Rock Krawler vs. TeraFlex vs. AEV, etc, etc. Lots of post reading on this and another forum. It also helped out seeing that many of the major magazines that do write ups on JK's used Offroad EVO for their installs. I will say that this forum has more people that like EVO stuff than the other forums. So anyway, it always led to ORE. I have had a lot of custom vehicles, some I built, some others built for me and I will say that this is first time it has gone from start to finish without an incident. It is like it came from the Jeep factory like this, truly amazing how everything works exactly how it's supposed to.

Now with the Pro Rock 60's, high steer and ram assist, I found that i was looking for stuff along I-10 to try to get death wobble. Anyway, I spent most of the weekend crawling around just admiring the shops work, simply incredible. Expensive, but worth it. As I mentioned to Scott in a PM, I had two days with the JK and then back to the east coast for work. Looking forward to hitting the AZ desert and rocks upon return, that Log Corral run may be in order..........

posted this pic somewhere else in the forum on sunday, but thought I would share with the hometown crowd

Default Thanks

Thanks for all the compliments on the JK, it is something I have worked very hard for and I plan to enjoy it every chance I get. I have already entered for the 2011 JK Experience, hopefully I'll get selected as a participant. I am also trying to make Offroad Evo's JK Challenge in January out in Johnson Valley, CA where they run King of the Hammers events. In between all the events, I am trying to hit all the near by local trails on my few days off here and there. Hope to be able to link up with some you for run.
