sorry, been super busy with the mega meet. as it stands, there is nothing official planned yet but i would like to run barrett lake and hell hole on this trip. i know that mbatf had mentioned doing a run up fordyce and time permitting, we will. come this august, we are planning to do niagara rim again on the weekend of the 8th and with any luck, maybe the dusy later on. don't think we'll be able to make the jamboree this year though
OK, Kristen and I will try to have fun without you!
Barret Lake, Hell Hole and Fordyce sound good, I only hope I will be able to get the weekend(s) off to join at least one of those.

well, we should be available for some weekday runs if that would make things easier for you.

Hey WOL -
2 quick things:
1. the gallery for lil' nemo stage 1 seems to be MIA? link need updating?
which leads me to #2
2. I know earlier in the thread you said you were going to install the bumpstops and I was looking for a picture with them installed. I'm just wondering how much clearance you have with it on. (I was looking at my clearance on my Jeep with OME HD with heavyass bumper/winch combo after the install and it doesn't seem like much travel)
Thanks in advance.

2. sorry, i didn't get a chance to take a pic of it before heading up to tahoe (where i am at now). regarding clearance, you need to remember that the yellow stop will squash down quite a bit so you actually have more stuff that what you see. also, you don't want to get too much stuff as you run the risk of over compressing your coils.

Hey WOL, how do you like the ARB rails, I havent seen too many folks with them. I love ARB front bumper, just got one from Dave when he had the deal with the IPF lights, how was the install? Lil Nemo is really a nice looking Jeep.

what i like about them is that they are mounted to the frame and look very factory. while drilling is required, arb does provide nice sticknuts to help you get things bolted on. needless to say, install isn't too bad but the drilling is kif of a pain. if there is a down side to them, it would be that they don't stick out far enough so they cannot be used as a step. also, the tubing seems to be on the thin side by comparison to other rocker guards i have run but.... i'd like to really test them out before i can say one way or another as to whether or not they are up to the task.
