This is him on the Castle Crags run, playing in the rocks a little. He's not afraid to break shit. Matter of fact, we usually expect it.

Nope, different dude. This guy is Will.

TJ owners tend to do that, lol! I call them school buses. I digress though. I call JKU's school buses too.

 

[Thunderhead]

On my word a guy at work has a 2014 ZJ on 22’s. I looked at him cross eyed.

Yes, 24th is a go.

 

[Rob5589]

Yes, 24th is a go.

Cool. So, day trip, bring snacks/lunch/drinks; off roading gear. Is there anything specific that needs to be brought up?

I am gonna be swapping out my Moog/spacer combo for BDS coils this weekend, cutting it close but should be good.

Nope, nothing special. Just bring lunch, snacks, beverages of choice. We'll have lunch somewhere along the trail. Hope to be at the winery around 4PM. The winery is at the end of the trail, so those not interested in that can head out if they choose. The winery has pretty nice grounds, so it's at least worth a look. Their wine is just ok.

 

[Rob5589]

Will have the littles so I will probably bail out on the winery. The rest sounds good.

No worries. The winery is only 3 miles from SR20 and the road home for you. I really look forward to taking my grandsons jeeping when they get of age.

I can't keep track of everyone. When did you get the BDS coils? 2"?

Will have them tomorrow. Running the Moog coils and 1.25" spacers now. Initially the Moogs gave me about 1.25" but have settled to about 1/4" over stock. So, when I installed the spacers I needed longer shocks, which I installed. But now with the springs all settled, the shocks are a tad too long. Thus going to the BDS spring. I know, shoulda went that way originally, live and learn. I am waiting on new isolators since I misplaced the rears when doing the spacers. Hopefully all going in Saturday.

I'll be very interested to see how you like the new springs?

Glad you're going to make it. Look forward to meeting you. Might have to exchange a few hunting stories.
