    Odds and Ends
    Last weekend there was still a shit ton of standing water all around Evan Hewes to plaster city and just about everywhere in the south portion of the valley, it has rained more since then. It may be a couple weeks before its safe to head over the mountain and even then it's probably going to look different than before. I have not seen as much water down there as they have got since the early-mid 80's

    If you think thats bad my Jeep must be a rolling Felony! More than half the tires sticks out front and rear, haha!!

    What is causing you not to pass, no cats? Good luck finding someone to do it, its getting extremely hard to do these days..

    I am so excited, I love when it rains enough to change the landscape, that way Ocotillo wells will get a facelift, yay! Now things should look a little different.

    The main danger is watch out for rain ruts that werent there before, thats where the magic happens...:eek:

    i wish i could ccw my xd. Stupid kommiefornia :mad: you may be able to get away with that here idk if thats considered ccw, guess its up to the LEO's interpritation of then law and what the definition of concealed is. Just stay away from school zones and keep it unloaded, then again thats not feasable while driving around here lol an unloaded gun is a cool looking paperweight hahaha keep mine in condition 1 all day/whenever its on me.

I don't know whether to take my rear ones off or not now that its all said and done... It looks stupid...

    Not only Bro trucks, look at the jeeps around town. I feel good that my tires stick out barely a inch when I see jeeps that stick out a foot.

    If your J66's were anything like the POS springs I just took off erik's

    Then sadly Gabe, you must re-define enjoyment , you can bottom them COMPLETELY out by standing on them & jumping a couple times

    got video to prove it once Leo post it up

    DEAVER J66's SUCK THE WANGER..OMG Damn Doug, what a difference, man I was mobin the mall and these OMD's were the bomb!

    Seriously, what a difference in ride, no bucking, so damn PLUSH, linear and free moving, kings are a tad soft still but that's not the springs, going over hard bump is a gentle push up instead of a bone jarring shove upward.

    Gelo, don't load them up and don't wheel with weight, I'm telling you J66's are bad, and you may want to crawl under and see if the leaf keepers ( shackles) are hitting your Gas tank strap and frame, mine did in 3 spots and gas tank. If you have to spend over 700 bucks for leafs, go to National Spring in El cajon and have a custom set built for 789, I was out there and they made us some new u-bolts. If you cant spend that much please go see Doug.

    the vids upcoming are sooo damn funny.

    Doug im planning a wheeling trip soon and a FULL write up since no has given these a proper report.
