17 weeks! Jr. just needs the fluids changed and to be loaded. Could work on the shifter a bit (can't get it locked in 1st rear). Tranny is in Green. It needs a bunch of stuff. Door pins on the drivers side, most likely a bit of driveshaft work, alignment, tires changed, oil drain plug fitted with oversize, and fluids checked/changed.

15 weeks! Jr. needs the windshield washer to work, power steering leak fixed, vibration/shake in the front end corrected, and maybe the shifter worked on a bit. Green needs an alignment, clutch works after being bleed but statrs going away quickly, front driveshaft rebuilt and lengthend, drivers door pins replaced and door aligned, rough idle on start up-bad injector or head/intake gasket maybe, new plugs, 33's put on. Both need oil change and fluids topped off.

We are planning to camp maybe near the half track on Sunday night. Some guys are bringing trailers and we think that might be a decent place for a base camp.
Monday, 23<SUP>rd</SUP>, we are planning to go in and drive to the end.
Tuesday, 24<SUP>th</SUP>, we plan to start back out. Most of the filming will be done going out so it will take us longer. We have two days slotted to get back to the half track.
Wednesday, we plan to finish the trip out and go to HC for showers and supplies, then back to the half track to camp.
Thursday, we plan to visit the fort and pick up the trail again. We plan to run it from the fort all the way to Bluff. Then back to the half track for camp.
Friday, we plan to finish whatever we haven’t done between the fort and Bluff.
For now, I think that’s the plan. Hope to see you there. We are expecting a rather large group.

Lots of news on this:
Larry's getting a new Xterra March 10 and he will not need to ride with me.
Larry has a group really wanting to do this. His son maybe(Grand Chrokee). His brother(Grand Chrokee) (last time the brother brought a friend and they both had womin with them). His brother's daughter and her husband(Unlimited rubicon, Dodge PU). Caveman(CJ). Sundance(ZR).
Dennis is not going to make it.
Clint and I are going.
Garrett was able to get the vacation list but the 23rd and 24th were already full. He's going to put in for a cancellation but that is a long shot.
I wanted to go out a week early but that may not happen.
Green is down on coolant and I will have a party to see if we can fix that. If it is something major like a cracked head Green will have to set this out.
