I don't need them, I could use them but there are 100+ projects ahead of that in line. Don't worry about it Matt.

Cool, I picked up dogs, buns and beer (just a half rack of Native). Anyone bringing fruit (like peaches or watermelon) or virgin libations?
Edit>>> I touched base with derf, he's 50/50 on being there. He is still working on his JK for a Utah trip, but is trying to come up.

So I didn't get everything done on the JK that I needed to.
But part of that is lack of an adequate welder. So I'm at a stopping point and will be able to make it up there.
If you have enough dogs for me, I can swing by the store and pick up some fruit and/or other sides.

Some fruit and stuff will be good. My GF is making jalapeƱo poppers and we have hot dogs/buns. We also have all the fixes and chips/salsa.
We will do a little welding on derfs bracket.
I replaced the steering gear/ram on the honcho with a new steering gear, but no ram. If we feel really rambunctious, we can weld the oil pan.

We'll probably leave lakewood around 6:30. Wife had to work a little late and isn't quite home yet. Should be there about 7:30!

I dunno where you are coming from, but feel free to stop on by at anytime! We are just tinkering around the house/garage.

Thanks to everyone who made it! I think everyone had a good time; we welded derfs bracket and Ethan himself tuned nikkormat's TBI.
The highlight of the evening was definitely when we piled into the FSJ limo and took it for a spin. Epic!

Yes, I had fun meeting everyone! The limo ride was awesome!!! I'm just glad we waiting until evening so I didn't have a bunch of hot sweaty Jeepers in the back! LOL!!
Nikkormat, how is the truck running? Maybe another weekend we can do some more tuning.
In daylight.
With a fully charged laptop battery.
And maybe a hood.

It runs great! I can't thank you enough it was an honor to watch someone tune TBI in a scientific manner and see results!
I need to get the fuel delivery dialed in now. Maybe after that we can work on it with a hood attached.
And it was absolutely wonderful to take a ride in the Limo. That was a real bucket list item for me. Ride in an FSJ Limo.
It was also great to meet Jaber and put a face to the name. Those are some sweet headlight adjusters!

Dang! Can't believe I missed a ride in the Limo... Ethan can you do me a favor? LOL It's too bad that the picture doesn't really capture the "limo" aspect of Ethan's limo!
Nikkormat, is your boiling fuel problem fixed yet?
Sorry I missed out. Looks like it was a lot of fun!
Can't wait to see you back around these parts Jeff... with a wheeling rig!
