so whats everyone doing the 4th weekend? any trips or cool plans?  

I plan on finding a offroad trail i can watch the fireworks from in big bear.  

sweet, maybe that holcomb trail area that we used to wheel on.

you going to be up there fri-sun? I'll see what my days off maybe I can make it up.. I'm not sure what i'm doing just yet..

I don't think you will see any fireworks from the Holcomb Jeep trail...and it may not be open from the fire damage. Eriko, Kairi and I may be coming up too..we should plan to find a spot that CAN see the fireworks...  

Newport Harbor....on the boat watchin' the fireworks  

It looks like i will not be making it to BB on the fourth, but will probably come up sat AM to run some trails with Kevin & Wayne....anyone else???  

sounds good to me, i just reassembled the jeep and im gonna be finishing the work today.  

We will be up Friday in Big Bear to see if we can wedge in somewhere to watch the lake fire works.  Time to get the Heep out, maybe Saturday!  

What went south that you had to fix? I got most of the power steering fluid cleaned up that sprayed the engine compartment when the fitting on the pump loosened up.
After I drained my CO2 tank filling up Franks tire I decided to put My AC/Air pump back on. Just need to run the hose to the Tank and then to the quick disconnect on the bumper. Keeps me out of trouble.
Might be up in Big Bear on Sat. Gotta see how the Automatic does in the rocks before I drag it up North to do the Dusy in late August.  

my Electric fan has been going through a slow death and pismo was the last trip.  
So i replaced the motor on it.  I also added a trans cooler, went through my steering, and had my tires rebalanced using  some stuff like dyna beads.   all looks good on my jeeps end.   ill be up there tomorrow night.

Im in for saturday wheeling  

Im here and hanging out.  my sister is in the hospital having a baby so i dont think ill be around tonight.    As far as wheeling tomorrow im all in.  Ive worked on the jeep today and hopefully have it running better.   the tire balancer i tried didnt work at all.  I dont know if i have too much or not enough but i have crazy unbalanced wheel problems but that shouldnt effect the wheeling.  

rawkon, check theses out..http://www.rockcrawler.com/techreports/centramatic/index.htm I've never used them on a POV, I can tell you they are awesome on the big truck to the tune of another half life compared to regular ballancing on my steer tires, the sand bag crap never has satisfied me either.
I haven't had any ballancing issues with my trXus YET...

here's how my day went... spent it with the boys and the troop.
We're hittin the trails in the morning.





 

For what it's worth the equal works great in my 395 85R20 Michelin XML which are about 46 in tall. I also used the dynabeads in the 37in pit bull tires on the scout and it worked well.
