January 8, 200422 yr CRAP! This is very important. Jared has to be back in AZ no later than 7am tomorrow morning. I wish i didnt have to work, i could drive down and help him. -Brian
January 8, 200422 yr I tell you - Jared has more problems with wheel bearings than anyone I know.... hope someone can help - that just sucks. GD
January 8, 200422 yr Sound like he's in the Bakersfield area. Its pretty empty around there, hope someone from the LAX area can help. Rob
January 8, 200422 yr Hey John, I searched the members board for 40 mins. Best I could find was "zooma37" whose profile says Southern California. Noting above - HardcoreSooub is at Vandenberg- west of Bakersfield that's about it, sorry. (Note - I'm not volunteering anyone) r/PK

January 9, 200422 yr How's Jareds status? I'd fly down to him if I could get out of work but it's a zoo right now. Someone has to be able to get to him. Which hubs does he have one the roo now? Maybe someone can get a set of used hubs to him to get him to the base. Ken
January 9, 200422 yr I recieved a voicemail from him earlier today, but all it said was he was located out of Bakersfield. Couldnt take the call cause im at work. Just tried to contact him on my break, and he didnt answer his cell. -Brian
January 9, 200422 yr Author Hey all..... Got it fixed , back together, and Mobile.... Just got off the phone with him, as he was getting ready to get on the Freeway again....... Thanks all, He'll post when he gets Home and a bit of Sleep..... Later, John in Oregon......
January 9, 200422 yr Great! Glad to hear that, i really didnt wanna drive 6 hours to Bakersfield tonight (but i would have if it wasnt fixed). -Brian
January 9, 200422 yr Just got a call from Jared, and he has passed the grape vine and is entering L.A. as we speak. ETA to AZ is 1:30am. Everyone keep their fingers crossed. -Brian
January 9, 200422 yr He'll make it - and even if he's not on time it won't be the end of the world. I've been late comming back from leave - sure they will give him a rash of sh!z, but in the end there's really not a lot they can do. Slap on the wrist at the most. Glad to hear he's back on the road - I know his service to his country means a lot to him, and getting in a spot like that with your commander isn't a good way to start off comming back on from leave - but what's a soob lover to do? It's not like he can leave it sitting somewhere.... Best of luck Jared.. GD
January 9, 200422 yr Well, I can say this is how all military commanders would handle it, but as a past company commander, as long as he had called in and explained his situation, and didn't seem to take advantage of the situation, I would have done nothing. I might have welcomed him back and chatted about the problem he had, but no punishment.
January 9, 200422 yr I have not been on here for a long while; been sitting at a hospital in VA for a month with a needy 3 year old boy who developed pneumonia. Anyway I just got back, (he's recovering and will be ok), and felt this strong compulsion to check the board for the first time in a....long time. I'm just south of LA, and I have wheel bearings. I'd have driven up there in a flash to give them to you. I'm sorry I missed this. I hope everything worked out alright. I wish I could have helped.
January 9, 200422 yr 11:30AM Friday Jared (Rooinator) is in the mountians between Yuma and San Diego. He has blown a radiator hose, and it is being held together with duct tape. Has something else going wrong, but, when he called in the middle of the night, and woke me up, I can't remember. RainbowRoo......Jared's Dad
January 9, 200422 yr ... just spoke with him at 12:30pm. He is east of El Centro now, through the mountains but in and out of cell phone coverage. Should be easy into Yuma now, as he's past all the hills and just cruising through desert slowly. We have Santa Ana conditions now, and its warm 70-80 degrees. I met with him last night midnight in Orange County. He has the rear diff making terrible noise. Seems it may have cleared up, but still tking it slow. He said he'l call when in Yuma.
