    Figure this out amongst the group you're with. Too many trucks in a small area to run the same channel.

    I have a few mods
    soooooooo uhhh.....yeah....about the 80 lol....sooooooo the transmission is in and crossmember is good to go and works! but....I think the throwout bearing and clutch fork that we reused from the last trans arent allowing the clutch to fully engage and the only action I get is when the clutch is on the floor against the firewall. Then the truck only wants to inch forwards/backwards and stop lol. so, I got the correct parts coming in and ill be getting the collar and clips I need on Tuesday next week.....im in a crunch to finish things up lol. Tomorrow im gonna finish up that small things with the electrical stuff and gauges, and attempt the drag link again. But the rear driveshaft still needs to be cut to fit as well. so......i think ill be able to make it still? lol?

    Bumper is on for Gulches. Skid plate won't fit without spacers or bending it about 90* at the front lip. I don't want spacers because I'll loose about 1/2" of ground clearance I think, but I don't have a way to bend 3/16" steel either... I'll try the spacers out tomorrow, hopefully it'll work. Other than that she's just about ready to go. I may have my BAMF front LCA skids on by then, and may or may not have full sway bar disconnects on by then as well. I've got a sleeping pad for the back of the 4Runner on the way right now too. Hopefully the weather is good that weekend!

    Also thinking real hard about 33's from Discount Tire's sale right now, although there's a rumor on T4R that Amazon will be running a sale on the 17th for all BFG's any size, $125 each. Not sure that I believe that though.

    I've got about 85 patches left. I'm giving 50 of them to @3milecreek at the meet to get some of his money back. But yes I can always make you a shirt. What size would you like?

    We should have a "main" channel for all communications, and each trail ride should have its own "alternate" channel for local comms.

    This sounds like a good plan.. but a plan never survives initial contact and comms is always the first thing to turn into a goatfuck..

    Absolutely, comms just don't work with these types of meets.
