Looking for a few rigs to pull an Xj out of the McLean Creek.
RCMP is really hounding... Constable WARMAN of cochrane wants this jeep like yesterday.
If the already planned Sunday run would like to help out for a couple hours you'll end up at a pretty nice spot (around noonish) to finish the day, several trail options to get out ;)
Not the usual meeting spot, will PM those interested.

If it happens saturday, what are your minimum requirements?

I presume this is the XJ that we found on the way up to Quirk?

What time are you planning on heading out? Are you going to try and get a trailer close-ish to the XJ?...would be a looong drag from quirk.

Also thanks to JeepGrl for reporting it to RCMP asap.

Video or pics or it didn't happen,..

i went for a drive later in the morning and came across the flat deck tow truck hauling it out of the parking lot. that thing was beat. good job guys.
-
that thing was beat.
That thing was beat before the ramcharger hooked onto it. After being dragged on it's diffs for 5 klicks...beat doesn't begin to describe it. I think that there were more axle and suspension components inside it after falling off than there were bolted to the bottom of it.

Once the pics are on my comp I'll post them and thE one vid
