I'm in Fairbanks. I like to wheel and try to wrench. In fact I just changed my axle seals and brake pads a few days ago with some help from some guys in my local off-road club for the parts like removing the gears from the diff.

There are a couple clubs in town if your interested. One does a few community events but might be a little less on the wheeling side. The other is all a bunch of guys that ride and wrench. What was supposed to be a fix it session for my JK Saturday ended up being an impromptu club event with 6 other members showing for various reasons with work being done on 3 rigs. This weekend we are helping a guy pull the tub off his rig onto a rolling chassis that he just finished.

PM me if your interested in any of the clubs or want to know more.

Man - awesome weather!


Got the good weather bug and ordered 35s, front bumper, lift, spacers and slush mats. Hopefully I will be posting some pics soon of her with everything on.
