On one of the MINI cooper forums I am on there was a thread started about could a MINI country man go through a foot of water.....

It's a mini, why would ya? :goink:

just sayin' :mrgreen:

Even if they do work, the problem with those deer whistles is many people mount them on a bumber right in front of the lights or grill. DUH people, they need aai flowing through them to make the whistle. :dizzy:

Finding parts for a 35 yr old tractor sucks. :banghead:

When to the C.O.R.E offroad benefit this weekend down by me, wasn't much to see. There was some killer crawler rigs and some nice show and shine, but their "rock crawl" over 2 cruushed cars was lame. Glad my wife wanted to go to the farm/garden store there or would've been a waste of gas.
There was a couple very nice older CJ's and a restored Willys :mrgreen:

You were there too I went with my buddy dave in his green WJ grand his was the one with the half doors

Funny I never saw ya. Did he do the RTI ramp? I saw a Green Grand on it when we got there. I was there about 1:30 when the buggy was stuck on the cars.[/quote]

Yep that was us on the rti

Okay, Tom. Regardless it'll get done this weekend.

Things just get done so much faster in Mudd's Garage because I don't have anybody bugging the crap out of me.

Got the insurance check this morning for hitting the deer. Check should be enough for brake upgrade, suspension upgrade and maybe even a new bumper! He didn't total it, but said it was REAL close! :BANANA:

I'll have to consult with my "mechanics" to actually see where my money should be spent (replace just the bent stuff? ....... or upgrade the whole thing! :twisted:

). If I just start ordering stuff I'll go overboard again! :frankie:

Oh so you're going to start listening ? :shock:

Just tripped over a Matrix front KJ bumper laying on the hotel room floor
Who the heck has a bumper in their hotel room :banghead:

Tom please tell me that marlin gave hat too you to test out I hate to say it but on the KJ that thing looks like crap

So happy that there are differences in opinions/tastes/etc :wink:

If everyone liked the same thing we'd all be stuck driving a Grand Cherokee possibly. :roll:

Doesn't make any difference if I paid for it or how I came by it its no ones business really, we'll put it this way its a business deal
Also,........For me its more work

tommudd · **Posted:** Tue Aug 14, 2012 11:39 pm

tom it does look good but i don't think that it follows the lines on the KJ well at least on the 02-04's i would like to see what it would look like on an 05-07 KJ... the biggest thing that i have with it for what it is it costs way too much i would save my money for an ARB.

tommudd · **Posted:** Wed Aug 15, 2012 12:51 am

WJs WKs KJs all have the same "curves" to the front bumper cover
did you know that ?
I didn't until I started looking real close :wink:

I'm real tired of my ARB, but there is nothing else out there right now that trips my trigger and says WOW
so I'm thinking...............................

But yes can't wait to see the Matrix up against a 05-07 bumper
lots of mounting possibilities for sure

Tomm...how long would you need to have the 05 to fit the bumper?

An hour maybe
Fit brackets, take pictures, fit Matrix , take pictures, see what all would have to be cut to fit matrix , take pictures .....................
you get the idea
Not long I wouldn't think
May even try and find a used front bumper cover so I can do some cutting on it
Waiting on the receiver part now took the one Marlin had on display :roll:

I told ya goof ball ya can use mine if ya like, good luck gettin it away from Momma though :ROTFL:

Had a fun ride home this morning..........waiting to turn onto my street when I remember seeing a lady behind me a ways back but put some distance between me and her. Did a mirror check when I see she's a comin a lil bit too quick and I still can't turn :shock:

forget the turn! nailed the throttle and she must of just looked up then when she freeked and hit the guard rail, ripped off her bumper and smeared the right side along the rail :shock:

Ya ask how do I know she looked up? SHE WAS DOING HER MAKEUP! All sorts of people saw it and thank God they waitied for the cops. She told 911 she had to swerve to avoid a guy jumping his dirt bike :shock:

A neighbor that is a fireman at the fire department right there was in his words "in total view of a woman doing her make up, doesn't help, she needs to drive when behind the wheel!" :ROTFL:

Don't know what happened to the woman but she got some sort of free ride from the police :pepper:

I need to start makin etch marks in my tank of these survived bombing runs :evil:
