I'd love to, but I was going to save up $$$'s for christmas and now I'm scraping up evry penny I can find for the Locker. If Clint decides to go Thanksgiving I'll see if i can talk him in to just taking "Mule" and splitting the gas.

We have to go climb Driveshaft, Corkscrew, and the trail I climbed. Then there is another little mud hole farther back and another little ledge to play on.

Is November going to be a men in plaid weekend also.

Tony can follow you then I can follow him. I think he was a little shy being his first time out. Since this is third time he should be ready to play.

Sure, just bring Joe and Donald along. That way if I get in trouble they can run up the hill and hook up the strap and winch for me.

Here is the link for Bushwacker: http://www.bushwacker.com/fender.asp...&search=Search

The instructions are at: http://www.bushwacker.com/Instructions/21007b.pdf

I've considered having the fenders cut as per the Bushwacker instructions and not installing the Bushwacker flares. The Bushwacker cut out flares would look way cool until I rubbed them against a rock or a tree.

Yeah I looked into those but thought the cost was a little to high for what I wanted. Did download the directions and had thought about using their plan for the cutting.

Wish they made them in some plain black flexible rubber. They are really nice looking though. Looks like I cut out way more than they did on the rear. Bout the same on the front.
