What was ever decided about you slingin the BBG at TPP?

[mdg01]

Anyone needing to make contact with Bryan will have to call his cell. He is in Houston and probably does not have e-mail access. Or pm me, and I will call him.

[Chister]

Well, FAWK ME Running!

Just got out of a department meeting. Hey.. Guess which weekend they decided to schedule for the rollover to the new reduntant reduntant reduntant power supply system? The one where the Servers run on UPS' that are run from a Giant UPS which is run from a backup Diesel Generator.... Yup you guessed it... June 21 at 2:00pm. Frick Frack Fruck!

"Just wanted to give you a two week notice on this..." Fruck!


Sometimes I REALLY Hate being in the IT field.... FRUCK!

Can you call BLK for me and let him know I'm not coming..... (Not that it really matters, I never got a rig slot.:( )

[TxScout]

So what's the policy if someone drops out. Can I claim a spot? How does this work?

[Chister]

You can;t have My spot.... I never got a spot.
I was gonna be someones bitch when I got there....

there was a post earlier somewhere in chat chat where someoen dropped.

[mdg01]

Should have read BBQ. Too much Guiness last night.

[mdg01]

Is there a prize for 600 replies?

[mdg01]

I certainly hope so.

Yes, I'm just worried about bringing the right amount of meat. I really need to get a more accurate measure of how many people will be attending. I know some people say they may not buy it, but I guarantee when people see the pits and BBQ they will.

I think I may make a little web page form on my BBQ webpage for people to fill out if they are getting BBQ.

Also, the people who get there friday night we'll show y'all how to cook/use the rub on brisket, and saturday morning we'll do ribs. We may also do some breakfest burritos for saturday and sunday morning to sell if people are interested in that.

[mdg01]

Yea, Bryan pushed me into your product and I subscribe to the page. I was going to order some rub from you, but decided to wait until TPP. I know he (blk87K5) has caught some flak over the BBQ, but I bet the majority rules in this case. He and I will be there fairly early Friday.

No way to load up and haul it back over here and I can't find any help. So I came back home to feel sorry for myself and cry like a little bitch and post it all on the internet so somebody will slap me in the fucking face or kick my ass or punch me in the nuts or call me a pussy, or drive down here and help me get this sumbitch fixed:flipoff2:

p.s. Joe... that's so sweet... Thanks for keeping me in mind. ;)

[gunracer1]

quite being a pussy and turn off the computer and fix your shit, or load it and we will finish it friday night.

[TexasBlake]

How many different groups of vehicles are going ot go out? I'm probably going to haev one of the smaller vehicles, but I'd still like to see what the badass rigs can do. I don't want to be a burden on the trail though.

[TxScout]

typically, we've split into groups of 5-10 vehicles and it worked really well. The place is big enough to not run into the various groups if we start out spaced apart.

Do you have lockers? If so, I don't think you'll be too much of a burden to the big boys, so long as you're taking an interesting line. Ask Joe how he manages to keep up in his sami.

i'm locked front and rear, SOA, 4:1, 4.56s, 35s, on stock axles.

So in other words we're gonna be hearing some axles snapping!!

You've got no worries, I'll be on 31s but I've drug the Sami through bone stock. We'll have plenty of fun don't you worry.

[High5]

i just found out....i'm gonna be there!:D

[godzuki]

well i just got mine all back together from clayton im ready to show my EXTREMELY HARDCORE ass off ,or just work on it what ever seems to be the agenda:flipoff2:

[gunracer1]

i guess with all you guys fixin your shit, i will have to add that switch for the fuel pump relay

[TXLUGNUT]

What the hell is up with all you guys and your broke ass shit? I was in Clayton too but how much stuff could you break. If you fix it right the first time, it will definitely last longer...

Now I gotta go work on my junk!:flipoff2: :flipoff2:

I only have a 4banger, and it's automatic, so I won't haev sudden burst of massive power. Also when I start wheel hopping I stop cause I havn't made a traction bar yet. I wheel thinking in the back of my mind thta my Dana 35 is going to break, so I try to be cautious. I do carry a set of spare shafts and C clips for it though.

And my 35" MTRs only measured out to 33.5 so it's not that bad.

:flipoff2:

Sweet so my stock sami on 29's, locked front and welded rear should be fine then. Should I put the winch on it? I hate to lose the aproach angle, but I might need it. What do you guys think, slap me hard if Im being a puss.

Paul

[4RunnerGuy]

So what's the deal with the motels in town? It seems like at one point, people were saying there were some down the road. What are the names of these places? I thought I might look into it as a backup plan.

It will be fine as long as you don't mind banging the shit out of it :D

I wouldn't worry about the winch, it will be nothing to strap it and as I've found out..it's a Samurai...a couple of us can lift it off of rocks :)

I need Ford knuckles not chevy since my ram mounts to the stock location. I could get the chevy knuckle to work, but I figure might as wel ltry finding a Ford knuckle.

Ok cool. I wasnt real worried aobut it anyways. I am making it flex better this week and should have the bumpers and rocker guards done this weekend or early next week. Then I have to put the locker in and the welded rear. then just do the tbelt, water pump and all the PM stuff that needs to be done.

The super doody plan is if I break I go home on Madzooki's trailer, and I have to drive his Samurai home.

That's what I was wondering... I don't know what I'm doing yet - I may end up just going and watching in the truck, so that may be a backup plan to flat tow the Sami if your Jeep has to go on a trailer.

[MRM4418]

hey blake, so are their some extra spots? If i go i won't wheel my truck since its still a stocker (:( ), but since i'm gettin a digital camera for graduation, i figure i could just take a bunch of pictures for everyone. Just an idea i've been kickin around

Well I got permission to go out early and cut and gather fire wood. I will try and get some logs for a fire that should meet Aggie specs. However, it will only be 1 tier as I do not have a degree in Engineering.

I can try and find some pallets for the cause. If everyone brings a pallet or 2 that should suffice :)

[godzuki]

it feels good to get our old thread back:D

[Ratbasturd]

Jerry and Randy don't mind us burning what they have pushed down. I heard they cut a new trail and I have seen some downed trees around the Back Breaker area.

Pallets are cool, but they should be burned in pit because of the nails.


Russ W.

[TxScout]

So do you want pallets or no? I will have at least two than I will be able to bring.

Ohh yea, and I'll have a bunch of dry oak if we need that too, small logs though.

The whole deal is if I have to tow his POS home he has to be embarrased by driving a non jeep vehicle home. Works out great. Can you imagine all of the photochop oppurtunities of Blake in a Samurai.

It's been together, I wheeled it over Mem Day. Last weekend I took it out to 4wd Factory to finish the rear cage.

All I had to do was replace the timing chain, clean the oil pan, change the con rod bearings, replace the bent intake valve, do a valve job, install new cam, install new oil pump, clean and balance injectors and build a solid motor mount :rolleyes::flipoff2:

I'll tell you over a RB/Vodka what caused it all

At least you only had 1 motor to deal with. Did you have tohave your crank turned and if you did, how long did it take?

South Austin Machine has the crank from my truck now.

Other than replacing the con rod bearings as pm I didn't do anything to the lower end but cross my fingers :D I thought about pulling the block and doing a total rebuild but with good compression and not burning oil before the work and considering its basically trail only and I wanted it back together for Mem Day I just left it alone.

I took it to S Austin Machine too, they sure have a lot of cranks laying around.

I bet if we ask real nicely we can get permission to come in early.

I'm up for whenever.... Who's caravaning from Austin?

[TxScout]

Shain told me he can open it up earlier than 3 if enough interest existed, but that was for the CenTex Club run back in Feb, so things might have of changed.

I'm leaving Austin Friday night around 7-8 or so.

[TexasBlake]

I can't remember, but is there water available?

We're gonna leave from Corpus Christi friday morning. My dad will probably arrive with the pit at around 3pm or so. Friday night we won't be cooking, maybe just some sausage since we can do that quick. We're gonna go into town and try out Coopers.

[paniolo]

I was thinking of leaving Austin mid to late afternoon.

Blake, I was also thinkin of making it a BBQ weekend and trying to check out Coopers in Mason. I ate Lonestar in Brady last time I was out there, it was good too.

Hoo, boy I'm gettin hungry :D

I don't believe theres any water there.

Coopers Friday night sounds good

[Ratbasturd]

I talked to Randy, Joe is correct there is no water except in the creek. People can start showing up at 12:00 noon Friday.

Who set the 75 rig limit? I asked Randy if people that had not signed up could still show up to wheel. He said he didn't mind but it was up to the Pirate Board.

So can others show up just to wheel?


Russ

[Doug K]

You can show up, but no raffle tickets, no t-shirts, and no publicity... I think it would be OK... we were just trying to keep rig numbers down. I am bringing a shit ton of people who will ride/watch.

As for Coopers... I be down for friday night.

I honestly don't know for sure, not sure if Mason Cty is dry or not. I know they sell beer in Llano. I would bring enough just to make sure, either way "town" is a 15-20 minute drive and who wants to do that Sat night when the fun is happening :)

[Ratbasturd]

I think Brady has :beer: also.

[redruM]

bringin the motorhome (self contained) where do we park it (where is the best place to party ???

When you turn into the gate just go straight ahead, big camping area, circular drive. Most campers I see park to left or straight

well we just called Sam's to order the meat; 4 cases of brisket, sausage, and like 7 cases of ribs.

Y'all be sure to leave a spot big enough for a pickup truck, 16' trailer, and about a 20' BBQ pit so we can have a good spot to set up.

How far is Katemcy form Fredericksburg? My dad is going this weekend to drop the BBQ pit off in Fredericksburg and next weekend he is pulling a 16' trailer full of the other stuff. Can't do it all in one trip.

nope, just a 6 pack. I am only a light social drinker, also I plan on wheeling most of the time and I am firmly against popping a single top when behind the wheel or spotting for my close personal friends. A six pack of light beer will allow me to enjoy 3 refreshing beverages in the evening hours of both Friday and Saturday. I might even bring a few Dr. Peppers and a big can of cold refreshing ice water. I better remember to pack some aspirins to offset the effects of drinking 3 beers in one evening.

Let's all work together to keep the drinking to a minimum.

So now I just have to put the tow bar brackets on it, and paint it. Then all I have left to do is put the front locker in and weld the rear.

Tearing things apart doesn't go well on a vehicle as old as Doug's that has had so much bootylicious work done to it. Most of the time it involves profuse integration of the gas axe.

Hopefully the much gossiped EB won't spontaneously combust tomorrow. That would only cap my weekend with grandeur.

who is bryan and where does he live? my boat sides, rockers, cage, frame and all are tied together. noting is removeable as far as that goes. on an EB i don't think it would be too hard though. just depends on how you current cage is tied in now.

I'll be there, taking Hensel's place. Just gotta get the welder workin in case I have to help someone out. And maybe finish the hand throttle. 1st run for the second version of the scrambler.

And since there's gonna be lots of us there and we're asking for stuff. I need 2 16.5x6.75" ugly wheels with safety beads, anybody got some? They come from fords in the 60s and 70s.

[TexasBlake]

Hey I'm just wondering when most people will be off the trail Saturday night. I assume most people will be off the trails by dark, which is probably going to be around 7 or 8.

I just wanted to know so we know when to put on meat to have it ready for dinner time. More than likely we'll have a little booth type thing set up, basically you walk up, hand us money, we hand you the food.

Also, there's a big interest for breakfest burritos Saturday and Sunday morning, what time do most of y'all plan to leave on those days so we know when to have breakfest burritos ready to serve.

Thanks.

hell yes I am.

Most of the work will be done Friday night. We'll put briskets on Friday at about midnight. So if y'all wanna learn to rub, y'all can help us then, we'll have 7 cases to do. :D

Briskets will be taken out again at around 6am, and wrapped in aluminum foil with our BBQ sauce, they won't be touched again until ready to serve. Ribs will be put on probably around noon on Saturday.

I'll be able to help my dad during the most labor intensive parts, which will be midnight and 6am. My dad and my best friend Matt (doesn't have a 4x4 and is afraid he is going to die if he goes wheeling with us) will be able to help my friend throughout Friday night and Saturday. Most of the stuff during those time is just moving the meat around in the pit and other random crap. I'll go back to helping my dad saturday night when we serve.

Got the fan shroud back on and installed the hand throttle but not completely happy with it, I have to get a spring tomorrow and see if that helps get the carb to return to idle.

Other than that my axle seal should be in tomorrow, pick that up and assemble my axle and I'm ready :)

Drive to Austin on IH-35 till you get to hwy 71. Take hwy 71 west until you get to Llano then go left on Hwy 29 until you get to the square in Mason, then go north on 87 towards Brady 11 to 12 miles turn right drive till you see the sign.

Or drive to 7-11 and buy a map and learn to read it:flipoff2:

if thats to hard drive IH-35 to Georgetown to hwy-29 take 29 west until you get to Mason

[paniolo]

I'll bet there is an even more direct way.... but DO NOT drive all the way to Austin if you come down I-35. Just turn West on Hwy 29 a little south of Georgetown and save yourself an hour :flipoff2:

[Joe_W]

Looks like best bet from 35 will be to take 190 in Killeen and head west to Brady. From Brady follow the directions on the website (head south on 87 till you see it on left)

Cool I ripped my rear end apart last night and got it welded up, then I pulled apart another rear for spare spiders and they are heavily worn...but i dont feel like pulling another rear apart, so I am going to weld those also. Im gonna put the rear discs on tonight after I change rear wheel bearings at work today and then start on the front locker. If I get the front locker done then I wont have anything left to do except for load it up and pray that I have enough money to actually go. I am on vacation all week, but I have lots of work to do on my casa, so we will see what happens. Without a front locker is liveable, but it sure is nice when flex is limited.

I think I'm gonna head out of Irving around 9:00, hit 360 to 20 to 35S, should hit it about 9:30 or 9:45.

I thought you supposed to put eggs in the leaky radiator.

Rear shocks suck, I won't be running any. And if it never stops raining, I won't have front ones either.

Hey, lookit, I'm not a newbie anymore. I should have a beer.

I have pulled my transmission 3 times, going for #4 tomorrow because the front seal is menstruating like a horsin mare. The good news is, the transmission works in all forward gears and even has reverse, the bad news is, it doesn't have "Park", and I don't have an e-brake. Hooked up the rear driveshaft and took it for a spin in the pasture today to make sure everything was alright. Steering works good but slow with the 2" ram. Put my new springs on the front, poured some black pepper in my radiator because I somehow developed a leak, and repainted my hood. Still haven't mounted rear shocks and probably won't. I may just chain my axle like gunracer:flipoff2:

Looks like I'm gonna get done, but damn I don't want to drop this fargin transmission again. damn dude im starting to think you got HARDCORE bad luck .dont forget to bring your new trans.jack with you to the party sounds like you will need it.:flipoff2:

You know I could bring that jack and all the necessary tools with me Friday and wait to swap out that seal with help from all my good friends Friday afternoon at Katemcy:flipoff2:

I think that would be a great idea. Should be very interesting listening on 100+ opinions on every aspect of a trans swap. I vote for a full video also. I am positive it would be far better than the ones sold by 4WP. This might be where the money ticket lies. Great idea Hayraker!!

Bring the camera Marshall, this should be even better than dropping gunracers gas tank in Clayton:D

Camera will be present. We can call it "Pirate Productions". That title should raise some eyebrows in the legal realm. S. Spielberg needs to start looking for another profession.

[ROKN ZJ]

I'm going to have a slew of cameras there, and along with some others I hope to edit up a video of all the shenanigans that go down at TPP.
So make sure your at your jackassiest...
