    Only 3 more things for the Heep:

    Oil change
    Get some more green in the radiator so I can raise my boiling point a bit - 222 degrees now, I'd like it a little higher just to be safe.
    Scale off some rust and slap a quick bit of krylon on the sliders...gotta be able to see all the Moab carnage without seeing previous stuff

    To buy: Fill CO2 at Red Comet, perhaps get new coax for the 'ol CB. It's getting out, but SWR sucks donkey dick right now.

    I bet if it is 100 freaking degrees this weekend while we are there that the event gets moved back to the second weekend in June. Maybe the kid's birthday will hit on Monday or Tuesday next year...

    If the end links where say 3" or so shorter They would be just past the rim I think. That would be enough to clear. The only thing is the swaybar ends might be at too much of an angle. Not sure though. Scott
    1) My head

    2) Sure get me a measurement, bring them with

    3) Rather see the ends at the same angle for the sway to work correctly, but then again, text book answers never really sit well with me

    2)With Bob's help I'll look into something better/differant after Moab.


    3)Sadly the other project didn't go so well.
    1) Cool

    2) Done

    3) Bummer. Gotta get me some of your steering. The stock box (ratio) needs help.

    Anyone want to carpool from Denver?

    Planning to leave at Odark30 (sorry ex military still get up at 0500). Want to be climbing the big hills before the heat of the day. Let me know and we can meet on I-25, I-76 or I-70.

    I'm planning on leaving Denver at 8:00AM. If that works I'll be up for caravaning down. I'll be towing down thou and will be slow going up the two passes. Not sure which trailer I'm going to take, if its the big one, up and down the passes gets slow.

    Another one of Tip Over. This guy doesn't know how to go slow. He was lucky.
