noisy soft top...
Hey I spent some time diggin around this weekend after I had the notorious leaking (or should I say soaking) soft top a few times lately. It may be old news but I also found there is a new header that is released for the wind noise (TSB 23-010-09 Rev A, July 01 2009). I had given in to the fact that my top was loud but that was just a soft top thing (had seen it on my older TJ as well). It has been getting worse lately and almost can't hear radio above about 55-60 mph.. forget cell phone talking. Anyway, new header replaces the plastic with a metal header and pictures I saw.. really snugged the top down and got rid of the bow that allows the wind noise. If its old news forgive the post.. if it helps anybody else.. kuddos. Just thought I would pass it along.

Travis Sighting and Conversation
I actually saw and spoke to Travis the other day. He's working his tail off and hasn't had a chance to get his cable/internet back on. He plans on joining the ride this weekend. I'll call him with the details once they are firmed up.

Speaking of recalls....Recall ID # 09V436000 - POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
it affects 161,00 units and deals with the AOD transmission overheating.

Mountainside Ride this Saturday
Interesting. Sounds like there are a number of Huntsville area folks thinking about this ride.

Wes - you in upper Siberia again, or can you make this trip?
Justin - I'd pay your entrance fee just to see that Red Rock Crystal khaki JK of yours out on the trail. Come join us.

However, I will be thinking of you guys while I am shredding up the side of Jackson Hole, WY on my snowboard for the next two weeks.
