: Carnage for the Con
Curtis 05-06-2002, 11:21 AM Hey guys. Abba and I were talking yesterday while working on his turd (hehe) about this comp. It would be cool to get 5 Scouts together for it (if there is still room). Anyway, I wanted to see if there was any interest from you guys before I contacted Dimitri about it. How's about it Joe? SD? Josh? Anyone? Let's do it!!
Scout Dude 05-06-2002, 11:47 AM Looks like I will be Judging that event too!
Also, I don't think I can compete now anyways because I have an unfair advantage...I know where it's going to be;)
(Don't even think of asking me where..I won't tell!:D )
jdjanda 05-06-2002, 11:51 AM Hell I'll run, but I may be the underdog rig with 36's. You guys going to help me get a cage in before the event?
Joe

:flipoff2: ..Just ordered my new and improved brake kit for the front-->Read "I fawking lost one of the Ford caliper support brackets in the endless waste that I call a garage!" The N &I kit should be here next week.
Here's what I finished this weekend:
Installed radiator for the last time
Fab'd new fan mounts and reinstalled
Filled tranny and reinstalled top cover..found interesting new leak:(
Made new front shackles
Installed new bushings in front buggy leafs
Finished spring plate for tube side front 60.
1/2 way finished spring plate for cast side (Still need 1 u-bolt)
Put new u-joint in short side axle set up and installed into housing.
I know that the steering box is fully installed with sleeves and such..I can't remember when I finished it though...it might have been in the middle of the week.
Anyway Joe..here's what I have left:
Fill t-case, and F & R axles.
Weld up shock mounts
Finish cage and install seats into cage
Install steering column into cage/dash area.
install front brakes
That's all folks!

Heck, why not? Bring it up sometime. Abba has a bender with 1", 1.5", and 2" dies. I'm going to be tubing the front of my Scout this week (hopefully) or next week for sure. Just buy the tubing and bring it up here :D :D

Rock Tractor 05-07-2002, 12:18 PM I'm doing 4x4 In Motions Niagra Rim poker run in July. I emailed them last night to find out the exact date. If it isn't at the same time I'll do the run with you guys. Not this weekend but next weekend we are gonna run the con. Last year the poker run was around the 7 of july. Screw Hollister head up to the con with us.

I'd prefer to not freeze my arse off:D There is still a lot of snow up there, see the Gen section for a snow report from last weekend.

Curtis 05-07-2002, 02:57 PM No one else is interested? Doesn't matter if you guys are on only 35's. Let's just do it so we can get some Scouts in this thing.

Okay. I'll give Dimitri a call. But, we'll keep trying to recruit :D :D
Curtis 05-08-2002, 10:48 AM It looks like they are full up with 6 teams and 5 rigs each. Rich wants to cap it at 30 rigs total :( :( :( :(
jdjanda 05-08-2002, 10:57 AM Put our name in the hat, one of the teams will drop out by the fourth.
