Well folks...

Unfortunately, I'm feeling worse and worse about this day...

With our wedding (Sept 5) bills adding up WAY higher than expected, and no extra cash in the bank... I think I need to bow out of this one.  If something (Jeep Gods Forbid) should happen to our Liberty, we are NOT in the position to fix it, and our Jeep's our daily driver.   

So long sob story short - my fiance and I won't be there  :'(...

Maybe when finances are better - or next year - I'll try to make it out again.  This was/is a great idea, and thanks to all at the CJA for putting this on.

Brendon.

Good call Brendon. I am not a fan of having the DD as a wheeler.
Next year snag a cheap jeep right before the 101, and wheel it stock.... and then the upgrades begin!!
if we were smart with our money we wouldn't own Jeeps.
Here's your cup of STFU... ENJOY!

Krista (my better half) and I will be collecting the donations as well as organizing the paper work at the store before we go to the gravel pit.

For donations we are asking for what you fell the day is worth.
Last year we had people coming up to us at the end of the day donating more saying it was a great day. No refunds were asked for.  :)
Why does your Jeep say Toyota on it?

Might have a seat free for the run, but you'd have to do some of the driving, only fair. Back seat not so comfy, sub inside.

I want to attend this but I fell short of some necessary repairs that are preventing me from attending.
Is it possible to ride shotgun with someone so I can at least meet some folks out there & gain some knowledge of this course?
I should be able to fully attend next year 100%, but that's a year away from now.
LMK, it would be greatly appreciated. I can drive out to the store in McClean, just can't wheel it.
Thanks! If I'm not to late...

A few things...
Missing front DS, the Double Cardan went again for a third time.. I'll prob just buy the ball kit to rebuild, $30 or so, for now I'm 2wd with a 249 t-case.. (Parking sucks...lol I've adjusted my parking brake but keep forgetting to release it before I drive, so I have to go & re-adjust again)
Driveline issue somewhere? I think it's the t-case as there is free play in the output shaft (not rotational), I have the 242 to swap in but waiting for my buddy with tools & garage space to commit to a date. Over heating, thought the prob was solved but on these last warm days she was running hot again. I still need to run the garden hose over the rad, might be just caked with mud or even just a t-stat???

find your way to 22x and turn right. can't miss it ;)

Waytec will be comin from red deer i believe.   my guess is the best way to come (at least i'd come) is take 2a all the way south to 22x/marquis of lorne trail.  go west till you hit mclean creek.  it is some 30 minutes due west from the calgary city limits (literally timed from my house cause i'm that close) there is a big sign that says mclean creek. turn left. the store is on the right hand side. it is the only thing out there. if you CAN miss it then you are 'special' we'll be in the parking lot at 800 i believe. i will be 5 minutes late cause i wil spill my morning coffee on my lap when  i try to jump in the jeep with it leaving Camp.......
