Yeah sorry I didn't get my KJ out of the road too lazy and still in my "work clothes" :-)r

So what are the plans for tomorrow night?

Its pretty simple but I like it.

Getting my business cards printed in the next few weeks so I can start handing them out for our first M&G in February. Hopefully I can get a group of MINI enthusiasts that are as dedicated as this Ohio group

Congrats on the new job prospects Larry. At least this time of year you don't have to worry about combines on the road! :goink:

I like that logo, simple, but eye catching
Great job on that
Good luck on getting everyone together

I WISH I could afford to play with one of those! I was just telling Tom the other day about a Mini I went for a ride in when I was down in AZ visting my buddy. This guy has his all race ready like a SCCA and let me tell ya the little thing is a beast that chews pavement and screams to be tossed into corners! Very fun, fast and smears a goofy smile on your face that can't be removed :pepper:

well Buggin you could of seen mine at Toms at the last lift party.....

I wish I had the funds to fully race prep mine, would love to get back into SCCA racing. Honestly, I have trouble enough with just getting it in and out of the driveway with the stock suspension.

My chops are still gettin busted for missin the last one?!?!!?!? :banghead:

Make sure ya bring it to the next one, I hope to have something to test out by then and the Mini would be perfect level to test it at, maybe too low but several tests can be worked out :wink:

2 evenings and no Larry
Been so nice
got mine clay barred, used a cleaner wax and almost done with first coat of polish
may even get the inside done before Larry comes back again :goink:

Next rear LCA replacement, finish painting the undercarriage, and some other extras.

tommudd · **Posted:** Fri Dec 16, 2011 11:22 pm

Wonder where Larry has been

nothing from him in a couple of days
not like him to leave me alone so long
May have to drive by his place and see if there is any action anywhere

Out to the garage in the AM to swap Rear LCAs around again. I have wing nuts on the bolts now so its a lot easier to swap things around :lol:

He is spending his time figuring out the booster/master thing, I think. Oh a lil after midnight........maybe I will call him :ROTFL:

I have to run my daughter over to Target in the am first thing then to her friends house for a bday party at Great Wolf Lodge for the weekend :shock:

Even though I only got about 3 hours sleep today I will more than likely stay awake all night fiddlin around the house then crash after I run her around in the am :roll:

Oh yea! I ran into one of those 4wd diversified jokers today (legal disclaimer:he SAID he worked there) :roll:

He wondered when and how I was able to get a Euro model into the states because the U.S. model can't be lifted like that oh oh oh oh ANNNNNNNNNNNND! :ROTFL:

Jeep didn't offer the offroad package.............being my front bumper, rails and shortened rear bumper for ground clearence but he noticed they removed the skids to save on shipping costs! :shock:

Now mind ya the last person that wondered about my Euro model was a Jeep worker (again legal disclaimer:he SAID he worked for Jeep) :shock:

I almost wet myself with laughter about 1/2 way through his speach, I really hope he wasn't a salesman or worse yet a mechanic! :ROTFL:

Even the dumbest person at my plant isn't that stupid. If we don't know anything else, we darn sure know how to build our Jeep!

My thoughts exactly which is why I inserted legal disclaimer, I know how touchy some "installers" can be :goink:

But now I have to find out who drives the white XJ, lifted, rack, lights, ect. that lives around me and I "think" works at TNAP. We notice each other almost every day :JEEPIN:

Larry posted at 3 sumtin am in the XJ forum but couldn't stumble in here to tell us to shut up? :shock:

to ya Larry :goink:

Marlon_JBT · **Posted:** Sat Dec 17, 2011 5:16 am

Now there ARE differences between models depending on what country they're going to, but nothing limiting how much it can be lifted...

tommudd · **Posted:** Sat Dec 17, 2011 10:45 am

I went to Diversified when the owner was still alive, great guy and he was really interested in the KJ and what could be done. After he passed away and the guys took over it went to H!
I stopped at the new shop twice and both times was treated like I had some dreaded disease or something.
Plus was told the only lift ever made was a Skyjacker, that they were the only ones who had ever successfully lifted a KJ but they did one because it too two guys 8.5 hours and on and on.
Everytime I see a 4 wheel drive around town with one of their windshield banners I have to laugh, and think bet you got ripped off big time. I rate them about as high as RRO
