Yeah that is what i am saying.

Plus come early do the wrenching should only take a few hours and then sit back relax and watch the game. I would of course splerge for pizza and refreshments. I don't have a plasma but my TV has good pic.

ATVA Grand National Championship Might be a good reason to miss if i knew what they were. But cali is a far drive for it.

And if there are any single wenches that want to come thats cool too!!!!!

Super Bowl weekend???

I'd love to help but i've already been invited over to a superbowl party with a 110" HD tv

Are you putting the red pickup's axles on the 4Runner? Are they better or something?

:pat: what you meant is "Winches - something we use to get our trucks unstuck" right?

to clarify, a wench is a pirates woman, or any woman for that matter...

a winch is something with a motor (electric or PTO) that has cable on a spool and is use to extract yourself or others...

and a WRENCH is a tool used to turn a nut or bolt.

There will be a test later...

Aw Come on Crux I have a HUGE 19" to watch. But yeah the one's on the red truck are better not only do they have 4.88's and a rear ARB (that i still don't have a compressor for) but the bearings on the 4runner are shot due to the front hubs leaking like a siv.

Molly i will let you know, thanks for the offer. I have to take the kids to School on Moday and Tues. and pick them up also. so may not have time for it?

And winch wench or wrench all depends on where you were raised, and the color of your neck.

The former and the latter will cause you the least amount of trouble if your neck is red like mine.
