do you need locking diffs for John bull?

JJsTJ · **Posted:** Mon Sep 12, 2005 10:54 am

No, but they sure help. Paying close attention to tire placement and your spotter will help get you through. Hopefully the trail hasn't gotten too much worse since the last trip.

Yes, Any 4x4 is welcome as long as they are up for it. Wonder if we will see a Green ZJ show up, have not seen it wheel in a while?! (and Bo should drive)

lilmatty · **Posted:** Fri Sep 16, 2005 10:09 pm

Clint you may well need to pull me out of somewhere beings as how this'll only be the XJ's third hard case run.

ZJ...man that is a big dang stupid Jeep to have to pull out when stuck. hehehe. Yea any Jeep is welcome on our runs. looking forward to seeing the new XJ Matt. I am still doing mods to the ZJ but it should be able to do JB with no problems at all at this time. I will be driving Sammy the Red Rocker II. Later...Clint

Big? You should get inside one of those danged Commanders. Soft, like a coffin. No road feel except when you high center it. Make the GC series look like minis.

hey there, will I have trouble with stock tires on john bull.

Strikeagle · **Posted:** Mon Sep 19, 2005 1:18 am

Another question, can you run 2005 yj rubicon moab rims on the liberty?

lilmatty · **Posted:** Mon Sep 19, 2005 10:20 am

Strikeeagle: You might need a strapping or two especially with no locker. And make sure your spare is in good shape; sharp rocks. Otherwise probably ok.

O man thats too bad. I can't wait to see what kind of monster they create!! No, I'm sure it will be awesome and better than others that will go nameless. Y'all know what I'm talkin about. Looking forward for this one to come out on the market.

Hey guys,

I hate that I can not join you on this run. We just moved into our new place and we are living out of boxes. I need to unpack and get things taken care of this weekend. I will keep an eye on the forum for more runs.

We moved to Lake Forest. Bought an over-priced, little house. Nice garage and driveway.

One more thing, I have some plans for my XJ - a little bigger, gears, lockers.

See you on the trails.

Robert

robert...we will miss you on the run but will think about you unpacking boxes for dang sure...

Just FYI guys...this is a rain or shine run. The weather will only make it more fun. Snow would even make it that much better. be sure to bring a nice warm jacket just in case. later...Clint
