Calico sept 27-28 roll call sticky

i assume you're going to lower gears did they replace the carrier? most Dana/Spicer gearsets lower then 3.92 (IIRC) require a new carrier because the pinion is so much smaller. might want to "remind" them of this fact. ain't no way they'd be able to shim out that much space. i hope they aren't going to try!

notice the front part of the roll cage coming down the front windshield.

some mods still got to be made to make it all come together and the rear all has to be installed.

gap at the ring gear.

that SUCKS kirk! i really wated to see you run that thing through doran, too.
what the hell did they send you? i got my gears through "mad 4 wheel drive" too, and had great service.. i'm sure he will get it right for you. too bad with the delays though.

Roll cage install put on hold till jeep is drivable again with ring and pinion deal.

I'm in. Won't be there until Saturday morning. Not sure about camping.

[JeepGal]

The kids, a friend of theirs and I will be there Friday night as well, and leaving Saturday after the run. A night run sounds fun, the last one was a BLAST!!!

Sounds like its shaping up to be a cool run...
