OK guy's and gals I'm back. There were 190 Jeeps and 300 Jeepers at Camp Coffs. I won two awards, one for driving in the unlocked XJ and one for diving out of the way of a bouncing TJ.

I'll post pic's up as I get them from various people or you can check out my photobucket album. http://s1216.photobucket.com/albums/dd364/briscatt/Camp%20Coffs/

Yip. They cut a lot of them down cause of the rust in the rear. There were also a lot of Honcho style full size utes. Most of the trip leaders had V8 FSJ's

There is a lot of potential with the full size. I have seen the fenders trimmed enough on one snow runner that he was running 44" tires without a lift. The fender wells are apparently big enough for that.

There were two J10's about 7 WWII willy's, man they went good. Funnyest thing was a JK roared up the hill and hit the trip leaders full size wagonair on the front. JK blew the fender clean off, full size had a minor scratch and very small dent

Sure did. Makes trail repairs easier. I also made a lift point that goes in the tow hitch receiver, the high lift fits in it.

Hey I'd like to see a picture of that, even if it's something really simple. Makes sense but I never thought of something like that.
