|||

||| bottom....
|||

||| TJ's start hopping and they are then done.
|||
||| I was impressed with one automatic though. He kept at it
|| and
||| at it and managed to work his way up around the top corner
|| of
||| one wicked one. This is the same one that I exploded a hub
|| on
||| last time in there.... He worked it and worked it and man
|| I
||| sure was expecting to see smoke coming out of the torque
||| converter, but it seemed to hold. It would stall the TC
||| though. Like having the clutch spin under extreme load.
|| Full
||| throttle and no go up or tire spin.
|||
||| There are some photos posted here:

|||
||| A whole mess more of the area has been posted no

||| bummer!
|||
||| I am going to see if the locals are interested in another
||| clean up of the area so we as a
|| rec.autos.makers.jeep+******
||| group can help out and maybe still have access. We put in
|| a
||| great showing on the last clean up of the area with some
|| good
||| news coverage and the 'adopt a trail' idea was tossed

||| I got the local Land Rover groups involved too and we got
|| a
||| good write up in the Land Rover Magazine.

In the pics the gray (?) TJ has just the headlights on, no running
lights...so they are DRLs. I looked at the pic funny for a minute
until I remembered seeing the DRL wiring in the books for canadian
TJs...
