Let me know if anyone has any issues with the new registration system, it should be much easier to use.

Eddie and Stacy are registered!

Registrations are flowing in, looks to be a good year again for OSCAR 14!

No better time than now for a new engine harness!!

Found out my issues last year were harness related and maybe not even the fuel pump…ordered a new one today because this thing is hacked up and not worth the energy….

Items to fix pre OSACAR:
Harness
New cooling fan
New fuel pump-done
Fix trac bar length-done
Re-wire trans cooler

I have a little bit of a punch list as well.

-drop the exhaust y pipe and clean up where Tripp and I smashed it for clearance last year.
-put a little more caster in the front axle and align.
-new tars!

We are registered, have a cabin, all the parts on the way to make the CJ dependable again...

Just need all of the rest of the dominos to fall correctly now. Travelling for work the week of the trip and will fly back in Thursday evening. Also need the weather to cooperate so that I can justify the $6/gal diesel to get us there for 1-1/2 days of riding.

 

[97TJGUZZY]

1.5 days is worthwhile

Whelp...it'll have to be next year. We've got house guests over that weekend, and while the Jeep is technically available, they are still tuning and tweaking a few things. Good news tho...picking up a Ware Cargo 24 foot drive-over-fender for future trips.

Items to fix pre OSACAR:
Harness - Have to land some wires but should be done by Friday
New cooling fan - Done, and pulls harder than anything i've ever had. Hoping for good results on the long mountain pulls.
New fuel pump-done
Fix trac bar length-done
Re-wire trans cooler - Done

Holding myself accountable here....haha

I have most everything completed.

CJ is back under power. Should wrap it up tomorrow.

Bringing both kids this year. Likely won't ride with many as the kids will be in their rzr and likely won't make it very far before they are exhausted, but they will be making memories and that is what matters. Maybe next year I can talk the wife into upgrading their rzr so it is more trail friendly.

I’ve got Linda’s bear lodge at the front and right now it’s just me and my dad staying there Thursday-Sunday. Anyone looking for a spot or got room for the two of us?

 

[97TJGUZZY]

Dial, maybe reach out to Jeff Lavvorn? @Blazer87

Glad to hear they are coming. Braz will be excited to hear this also. My nephews won't make it this year, so not many young ones cooming.

Glad to see you guys back. Are you back in SC, or just visiting?
