  • Short Notice: John Bull 10/11

    You'll never guess what happened when I got to work today. Walked into the shop, and sitting there was the TJ that Performance Products was using at their booth at the Pomona Off Road Expo. Ron(F250SD from Rowher Flats fame) proceeded to tell me that the Jeep hadn't run in 1 1/2 years, and they couldn't figure out what is wrong with it. They had been towing it to trade shows for that long! Any way, we messed around with it and got it running in about 30 minutes. Now we're gonna thrash it! Gotta do it before they want it back. This thing is baddass, all the toys from their catalog, even the ones you can never afford! We'll post some pictures of this bad boy tomorrow.

        Sorry guys but this is the best i could do for a pic of the jeep. Ill be taking some more pics at the John Bull on Saturday, any who want to come, call me at the shop. the number is 626 577-7100, probably we could meet at either the 15 and the 138, theres a Mcdonalds there, or maybe in Hesperia or Apple Valley?

                Things That Make You Go Hmmm

                Just out of curiosity, what was wrong with “The Big Red Jeep” (great picture) that they couldn’t figure out how to fix, for a year and a half, that you fixed in thirty minutes. Maybe you should be the one manufacturing and distributing jeep parts…

                Or conversely, do you really want to be buying performance parts from a company that can’t make a jeep run? :confused:

                Just a thought

                    what was wrong....

                    well the person that did all the installation doesnt work there anymore and they had installed dual optima batteries witha solenoid switch to offer a toggle switch control inside the car. Someone had disconnected the second battery and tucked the cable down the side of a very tight fender. Also they wired the ignition to the second battery which was disconnected from the system and had eventually discharged and shut the jeep off. Everything is ok now, and it runs fine so far.

                      I am planning to run Gld Mtn and then John Bull. I plan on being there about 8:30. Gld Mtn takes about 45-60 min as I will have just myself in my Rubi(Inca Gold) and my sons in my 84 CJ7. That would put us at JB around 10am. I have only run JB once, and that was by myself and had no problem with the Rubi, but the CJ is open both ends and only has 31's on it so it will take some work to get it through JB. Gld Mtn is no problem for either unit. Hope to see you up there.
                      Rubi,5sp, Gold, OME lift, Viair 450H SwayLoc, JKS 1.25" BL & 1" MM , GY 285/75-16 MTR's. Warn 9500Ti, dual Yellow Optima's, Nth' 1.25"drop TT /UCA's, T W DS, JKS F&R LCA's, M.O.R.E H C Front Bumper.
