I really want to go on this ride but I have to work.

So to help me over the depression of not wheeling Saturday,   I ordered a lift, wheels and 35's for the JK.

wouldn't it be "cheaper" to take a day off of work to wheel then order parts?  Better yet, use a vacation or sick day AND order the parts!!!

Take a day off.....  not in the spring,  I average 60 plus hours a week this time of year.   
Vacation or sick days?  As an independent contractor that is something I have never had in a job in the last 25 years.

 I just needed an excuse to spend a few bucks.

Just a question Rocket. Since I'm a new guy, whats the deal with the waiver and release forms? Do we need to bring those filled out, or do we take care of that at the departure point? And also would anyone mind helping me air down and Air back up? Havent aquired those tools yet.

You can give them to me at my house (the forms).

I and others can help w/ the air down/up.  I've got a deflater, but my compressor is slow, but it would work. (I just swap my tires; easier and faster).

Note for all (esp. new guys): as this is a family-friendly club, when we are on the radio's (CBs) and on the trail, try to limit the swearing and vulgarity.  We frequently have kids and spouses along; just try to respect thoes than aren't used to a sailor's mouth.

do you have an FRS radio?

One more thing needed: a chain saw.  The fuel line on mine just spit an  hour ago when i went to start it up, and its way too small to be replaced w/ automotive fuel line :(

Ok, final count of bodies.  List your name, and radio type (FRS, CB, FRS&CB, None).  Copy the list in the post ahead of you so there will be a consolidated list (i dont' want to leave anyone behind).  My cell is 860-655-3178, if you get lost or decide not to come.

Rocket, FRS&CB
