Were pretty familiar with how to get to E. Bidwell street. We did a few jobs, so matt and i have taken that route many times.

I do not know if everyone has a CB either, but I'm thinking channel 20 is a good channel as it is in the middle of the range. When I'm up there I will be listening on the CB for chatter as you all show up a the Reservoir.
#304
ill have my CB installed(hopefully) by then, but im gonna need you guys to have an SWR meter, because this is a new antenna for this unit and hasnt been tuned in years... dont feel like blowing out the innards of my CB...
#305
its nice having the SWR meter built into my unit. I'm sure Matt and mike will help you out with you SWR issue.

Replacing my cv boot didn't go super smooth. Bolts to attach it to the axle were destroyed on the threads when I took off the nuts and noticed the cb boot on the outside was also ripped and my grease is black sludge from dirt. Paying dealer premium prices but they get me the parts by the next day. So I should have all week and this weekend to get the front axle back in.

Could you do me a huge favor and take a picture of the back of the spindle where the axle bolts up?
I'll be heading up after work on Friday at about 5.

Today I met up with redwolf3. I let him de-vergin my new welder. He seems quite excited to go as am I. I will be great to meet all the new faces for this years Squaw Ridge run.
#316
Im excited to meet all you who I havent already met.
Well lets see...I got a bad oil leak, my swing out broke, which is hopefully fixed for now as of 2 hours ago, needs an alignment and wheel spacers after my new lift, its not even driveable because of it, and now my ipod wont play in the stereo!

that does sound like some bad luck. Your not the only one though. I may end up going with out a spare tire. tirerack has the km2 on back order. As much as Im sure I won't need the spare. It is always a really good idea to carry one.
#319
contact chrismcdowell25, he is headed up friday as well and will be passing that way I bet from the Bayarea.



im not going to have a front driveshaft by then. next year for sure though!
here's my ghetto built in swr lol works tho and retuning is a breeze
its gonna be a mad dash trying to get everything in working order in time thats for sure. But im confident I'll be ready!
