well i was rebuilding my front driveshaft. one of the needles fell out of place and i didnt know it, and pressed the cap on, and it popped and the retainer clip flew out of the other side...it popped the material out that would hold the clip in place. so anyway, it was 8:30 and they cant get one till 9-930. so ill be out there around lunch time.
ill have your bumper with and ill give you a call when i get there and we can meet somewhere

Yep, sorry we didn't run into each other...we got there around 9 in the upper lot....went back out for lunch at Subway around 11:30, and back to the park...left around 4 o'clock. Sure were lots of fancy "golf carts" out there racing around!! _________________ '97 TJ (Woody): 4.5" RE long-arm, D44 w/4.56 & Detroit, 33s and a 4 popper! '06 WK

not sure. but alot of the big rocks in the rock garden are pushed off the side on orange now.
I was only there for half the day, so i didnt see a whole lot, but from what hairy man boobs i think they are wussiefining it. there are still some challanges, but i was really upset to see that on the steps.
