My van-dwelling Astro buddy Kyle with a fully camperized AWD Astro is coming to town and wants to learn to play off road, so we're heading to the Badlands. More the merrier, so who's going to show up to wheel with us?

In
1. ihatemybike - vamping
2. Kyle - vamping

Maybe
You

Off topic, but I have to ask:

How many people are out there who wheel Astros?

Friday after work to camp.

There are many lifted Astros, but most stick to fire roads and the like. I've only known 3 or 4 others that truly take to the trails.

I am looking forward to riding shotgun in Grumpy for the first time off road and soiling myself. We're gonna spend the night, right?

Kyle, do you have the same user name on any two forums?

We'll be van-camping aka vamping.

Man... I'd love to, I'm in town (for a change) and the better half is working.... Unfortunately I have to fix my KJ. Need to replace the passenger side CV drive shaft, the unit hub and re-install the front drive shaft. Parts have all arrived, just need the time to do it, and this weekend is it.

Enjoy!

Current estimate is for us to receive Eugene's front diff back Thursday or Friday, which mean a Friday after work wrench-a-thon to get her Jeep back together. Bring yours over and we'll get it done Friday as well, then all of us can head down to Badlands together Saturday morning.

Man I would love too, but the better half isn't working Friday evening. Don't think she would forgive me if I spent the only time we have together this weekend working on the Jeep.
