Default Mountainside Ride Saturday (Tomorrow)

As I posted earlier, I'm planning to leave the parking lot of the Drake/South Parkway Walmart at 7:30 AM tomorrow morning to join the Mountainside Christmas Ride.

I'm already fueled up so won't need to stop, which means I'll reach the park a little before 9:30, where I'll air down, and join whoever else is already there.

Everyone is planning to use CB channel 23 at the park, so that's what I'll be set to for the ride down.

If my plans change, I'll post again early tomorrow morning, say 0630.

Probably a bunch of mud, but there are going to be 6-7 JKs that I've never met before so "damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead".

so trees>me. I ended up doing this crazy hill climb and right at the top toted the tires went off the trail and hit a tree. Then said tree launch me backwards off the 4 wheeler which proceeded to start tumbling down the mountain, landing on me on the way down. After a good 6 or 7 rolls (picking up a shit ton of speed) it centered up a tree at the bottom and broke the spindle off. SCORE! Best part is, isn't my 4 wheeler. Looks like that trip just cost me about 100 bucks or so

Where is a good place to get a full set of tires and wheels . In town or on-line. I prefer in town so I can have road hazard and free balancing

I bought mine on-line from 4WD primarily because the guys in town must still believe there is no other choice - in other words they wanted full MSRP for their stuff (mud tires) even though it's possible to save, literally hundreds of dollars, by buying on-line. Maybe someone else here has had better luck locally.

What are you looking for exactly (I have some Rubicon take-offs with 4100 miles on them if you're interested)?

Speaking of recalls....Recall ID # 09V436000 - POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
it affects 161,00 units and deals with the AOD transmission overheating.
haha.. I'm still alive. Its been a little crazy around here lately. Jobs been extremely busy and I got married in Nov. We are still trying to get her moved over and settled in. I'll hopefully have some time to catch back up after the new year starts.
