    Finally have all the parts to lift my truck to fit my 255/85/16's
    Just wondering if any of you used shims after installing new leafs? I didn't buy any and thought I would see if I got vibe before I ordered any. Thoughts?

    ......put a horn on your bike so you can honk at riders that are slowing you down

    Thats because they made me start in "C" class so I literally had to pass every bike on the course! And to boot my motor was worn out and didnt start, so I had to start about 20 seconds after the very last guy!

    Racing B class now and took the overall 3 weeks ago (1st on sat and 2nd on Sun) for the overall. Should be back to expert by the end of this year..just a few more transfers.

    I stopped being nice after that race.:D

    On the Off Roading Forum here on TW, I posted Part 1... Here is a preview, and it was epic indeed... being flown to Baja in a helicopter and back to be part of a TV special hosted by Desert Assassin's Cameron Steele...

    I can say that these were the nicest people and it was just wonderful being with them the past two days! Cameron and Heidi (and the rest were totally amazing/ friendly/ nice/ fun/ etc. to be with!

    This is a week long trip and some had to return today as the copter and I did. Casey in the Jeep cut his finger real bad surfing at Punta San Carlos so he flew back with us in the copter today.

    I got out of the copter at Santa Marta Orphanage near San Vicente and rode with Cameron and Heidi to San Quintin. The next day and today I rode Ron Stobaugh, then transferred to Casey's Jeep JK to a spot south of Mission San Fernando... and then back to USA from there... just over 100 mph makes Baja trips fast!

    I took 682 photos... It will be most difficult to not share them all! I will write a trip report when I can... Here are a few photos:

    Baby kitty cat needs a home in the SoCal area!!

    Rescued from the engine compartment of a customers car early this morning but escaped from our clutches and ran loose under our tool boxes. Local humane society was called and said they will swing by to pick it up.

    THEY NEVER DID!

    So now he/she,..it.. is home making our other cats nervous. Please message me if interested or may know someone who maybe.

    Thanks Sean... Just shows you to stick with what you love and share what you know freely... and maybe write a book about it! ;)

    I hope I am invited back, Cameron is all first class and totally off road! I am adding more photos to the trip report in the Off Roading forum here... Please check them out, and I am just finishing Day 1 of 3!
