I agree w/ Terry. Thurmont to Rausch can't be more than 200 miles round trip, right? I wouldn't worry about alignment 'til you get back.

I ran bj spacers on my truck for a year or two and never had an alignment done. With a few thousand miles on that setup I didn't see any real bad wear.

Ian give me a call when you leave. How far away are you from there? stopping at RBX's on the way? I am packed and ready to go, got to run to the store for a few odds and ends and then leaving.


Oh and anyone calling me NO TEXT's. I'm on a prepaid and it costs me 20 cents each text.

Brian and Jerry I don't have your cell numbers.

YotaLuver you definitely don't need me to bring that extra rim right?

Josh our guide's area code is 717. That wasn't included in the pm. for the updated list of who's going when look up a few posts it's on this page.

Remember all I'd like to hit the trail by 8:30 or 9am.

Looks like you guys had a blast. Would have been there myself, but the wife went out of town.

So, who's up for the Takeover?

No i haven't looked at all the pics, for some reason they wouldn't all load...i'd get the first 1/2 dozen or so , and then just photosucket icons...'pic has been moved or deleted'...weird.
From what i saw, i missed a really great time....oh well there is next year...i hope.
