    Havent heard any plans on Clayton, when is the trip? Just got a car hauler that is readily available to me. Just started a savings account for a trip im planing labor day 2017. Yanking it to Louisiana to do some wheeling with my cousin maybe then to Jasper, Ga for Jeep fest, and then on to Tennessee or Uwharrie in South Carolina possibly.

    but you had a 15 mph head start, and at least one of your tires was just chilling in the air

    Had some fun with the fork lift over the weekend. Double checking brake line and driveshaft length and clearances. The forks on the fork lift were 36" off the ground for the front and I forgot to measure the back, but they were about the same, maybe a little more. Also measured for bump stops, I am thinking about doing some fender flares and and maybe looking at 37s in the future. Does anybody know of good options for adjustable bump stops? Some that I can set to correct length now and still used with some adjustment after 37's are one?

    Fender flares will get ripped off on the trail. Buy some generic poly bump stops and fabricate a bolt-on mount for them so you can change them later.

    Well the Comanche was suppose to get towed down to the coast for the rest of the year this weekend but it didn't work out. So going to try again this weekend and hopefully get some time on the beach with it. Friday though, I was able to install the new rear LEDs to replace the old crappy filament fog lights. They look kinda funny because they are so small but they are the only ones that I could find that would fit in the existing light boxes I made into the bumper. They put out a good bit of light to assist in recovery. Much more than the previous ones.
