That was cool dude. I Saw my wagon in there a few times. -Brian

Let us know. We'll be departing Reno NV Monday afternoon. Thats the 22nd probably around 7 or 8pm. We'll most likely make it to Susanville for our 1st night. -Brian

Ok, looks like our stops have been finalized. We'll be staying Tuesday night in Klamath Falls, or nearby. Wednesday night we're going to be in or around Bend... then from there we're gonna make our way up to Mount Hood. This will give us alot of extra time to play around in or around Mt. Hood. From what Soobyclimbs said, there is alot of wheeling to be done up there. Anyone planning on going to the show a few days early? Wanna tag along? I'll most likely compile some maps and schedule stops here in a week or so. -Brian

Theres no such thing as too crowded. -Brian

I think the problem is that ugly spoiler you mounted to your car. Remove it and the car will forgive you and act right. -Brian p.s. only pokin fun, dont take it too seriously.

Pretty much the same footage as before, with me and jibs. But this is kinda focusing on just me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwOudZJoQxs Ive been playing with this new software I got. I even went and bought a MiniDV cam off ebay, same model as Jibs so you all should expect to see more from me here sooner or later. -Brian

Jibs has video of me driving off the side and getting hung up. I really need to get my FWD working. -Brian

Every ball joint ive bought from Napa has been greased. You shouldnt worry about it, just be satisfied with a job well done -Brian

Jibs has a Samsung SC-D353 MiniDV cam. Im thinking of buying one too cause its so easy to use and the video isnt half bad. And yeah, im VERY impressed with the way the hatch handles with its short wheelbase and the rear departure angle is great! -Brian

They'll accept up to a 100mb file or a 10min video. And yeah, CV's will be going in next weekend. Then the follwoing weekend is when we get to play in the woods! -Brian

Video!!!! I wasnt able to get everything off of Jibs Camcorder. He got some other video that I wish i had here to edit in. Thats what I got and thats what i came up with. -Brian

Yes, Timken is a very reputable bearing manufacturer. Knowing that, i think maybe i'll go buy some just to have them on hand. Would hate to be wheelin and lose a bearing. -Brian

Yeah Dave, thats Prairey City. No problems on this trip. We didnt really abuse the cars all that much. Here in a couple weekends we're gonna have to do a Kyburz trip or something to really test them out. -Brian

Bearings should be the same, but the knuckle, rotors, brakes, cvs are all different. Goto napa and just get new ones. Oh, get new seals too. -Brian

So Jibs came down from reno. He finally got all (well most) the bugs worked out on his Brat, and I wanted to go take the hatch out... so we headed out and I took him to a local ORV park nearby. It was freakin HOT out tho. I think it got up to 110 today, maybe even more. We saw on a thermometer that it was 117 in the shade, but that didnt stop us. I was running in RWD, but this morning we installed my LSD and boy did that help out a TON!! There wasnt much for obsticles. And I only got out to take pix when we were letting the cars cool down. I need to install the 2nd A/C Fan cause the car got VERY close to the red mark out on some trails. We had Jibs cousin with us, Crazy D, and he got some good video. I'm in the middle of editing some of it now, and i'll have it up later. For now, here are the pix I did get: And they had a cool pedistal that we got up on, to pose for some shots: Stay tuned for some video... -Brian

You still in Wyoming with that thing? Any chance it'll make it to the WCSS? -Brian

You bring it, and i'll help set it up. -Brian

I was going to suggest that as well. Ive used the stock EA81 rack rail and mounted it to a bumper of mine, then used the threaded inserts to mount lights. You could screw the rail into the hood, but seal it with something so when it rains you dont destroy your interior. -Brian

If there was a problem with the splines... im sure the 300 threads that already exist, and the detailed tutorial in the USRM would have mentioned it. You will be fine. -Brian

Uberoo... i dont see anywhere in his thread where he specified he had a 4" lift. Sarge, your doing things in the right order. Get those rims. And with 4" you should be able to run the 28's no problem. There will be some beating, and some cutting... but its worth it. Jibs is runnin 28's on his 4" lifted brat. Looks good. -Brian

How does that tool keep the rotor from spinning? -Brian

I know its your car and your call... but the fender and above the trim would have looked 10,000x better in my opinion. Nonetheless, its still going to look sharp! -Brian

Your not gonna go over the fender? -Brian

Sorry... but hey, i just noticed you have the same crappy harbor frieght cordless drill i do I find mine works best if you operate it with the charger plugged in. You planning on hiding those wires? -Brian

Sarge how much lift do you have? -Brian
