Annual Spring Mojave Run May 4-6, 2012

Since this is such a large group, is anyone selling anything? I'm looking for an LED light to mount in the rear of my truck to act as a flood/spot light to use for setting up camp in the dark and to also use as a super dust light since the amber light isn't always strong enough with the thick dust.

 

I suggest the rigid duallies, I have one clear and one with the amber lens cover which is removable if more light is needed. Works for me. Just gotta find you some..

 

this works for me .. I will be pickup up my passenger in Upland, then heading out the 210 towards the 15. Let's find a spot close to 15 that we can meet at.

 

We can meet at the Arco gas station off the 15 fwy and Sierra. We'll figure out a time during that week.

The Ridgid lights are nice but I don't want to spend that much money on lights. I'm looking for some chinese LED's.

 

How early? I can meet up with you on the 15 somewhere..

How much? I want Rigids, but damn.. $$$$

 

I picked my pair up at 4 Wheel Parts for $170 out the door.

 

Not sure the details but will will get that sorted out. I'm in Poway so right off the 15 so should work out well. Shoot me a PM with your number and we can start working out the details

 

Done. (shopping at 4wp now..)

 

Tick tock...tick tock....2 weeks to go and we're rollin out. I can almost smell the dust already

 

You don't smell no dust yet. Quit it. Hahahahaha. Can't wait. Let's get it going. Hey Tyler ya think we can meet up Sat to give you my tire gate to fix before we leave

 

Saturday I'll be out of town. Sunday I'll be around and all next week. Just gimme a shout and we'll hook up and get you dialed in

 

Ok will do! Thanks brutha!

 

Just got finished up throwing additional leafs in the packs for the extra weight (12oz X ??? adds up fast) Getting really excited now.

 

I think I have all of our coordinates finally figured out. Bring your cameras!

Friday
Leave the Avi Hotel into the desert

Head into Afton Canyon and explore depending on time - predicting stuck 2wd's due to the enormous amount of soft sand

Damn, I'm tired just writing all of this.

 

^^ looks like you have some awesome stuff planned on the route.
Can't wait for this trip - glad to have so many knowledgeable people!

 

For those that are taking cameras, race radios or anything that needs to get recharged, I suggest buy an AC/DC inverter. I have one and I use it all the time in the desert. I have the kind that plug into the cig lighter and it works great. They sell from $35-$45 and Harbor Freight sells one for $20.

 

What time do you think we will be done on Sunday?

 

I honestly can't give you a time because coming home always takes longer than expected plus major Sunday Vegas traffic. I think the latest we got to barstow was 6pm but then we air up, gas up and sit in traffic and get down the cajon pass around 8pm. I prefer to be in barstow by 4pm but sometimes that's hard to do.

 

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! Im so frickn excited to get back out there the last few times with you guys have been the best ever! Going to install a new junkyard leaf pack today and tighten all nuts and bolts and top off all fluids and anything else we can think of

 

Cool, just curious if i needed to tell work i will be late on Monday haha
