I just wanted to say thank you to the trail guides at Camp Jeep this weekend. This was my first Camp Jeep and I had a great time. I want to especially say thank you to the trail guides on Trail G at 7AM on saturday. I believe a couple of them are members of the Tidewater Fourwheelers and they were really awesome helping us negotiate the Z-ditch. I was the first Liberty in line, and after seeing the lead trail guide lose suspension pieces trying to show us the way through, was not real confident in what was in store. But they showed us how to get through unscathed and gave us a second crack at it later. It was very fun and I liked how they kept us informed of what to expect over the radio and how to drive like pros. So, again, thank you.
James

Just want to say Thanks to Chris, Carla, all the firemen, and trail guides for another GREAT Camp jeep. The biggest one so far that WE have pulled off without a hitch. Found out yesterday about the VIP Free carwash pass, Jeep paid a local carwash owner $20k for the weekend. Any other stories out there?

I had a great time as a trail guide. Lots of stacking rocks and early mornings but it was well worth it.
I would really like to thank Chris and Carla and also the Firemen who really worked thier tails off so the trail guides had a well informed idea of what to expect out there. I have never seen a volunteer operation of this magnitude run so smoothly.
Thanks again, you guys were truly awesome.
PS. Carla how do you talk on 4 radios and to two people at the same time while you eat a sandwich and write things down in your books? I am willing to bet that you could teach a very successful class on super-hyper multitasking.

Ben was that the big gold one with the arb bumpers on it? So he to took the book of curries and threw it at his jeep as well. Look at it this way Mike you are not alone. I know who did that to the jeep but, i can't identify the person. You know him very well though. Tony

37" 400HP is what it will told. so 38" with less should work. Big T where is the fill plug on a x-15 trans. Sharons trans is leaking bad I pulled the skid and am going to pull of the transfer case to reseal it but to many plugs (pasanger side ) to guess on. Ben you need more ass. hehe Did anyone balance? ?

Well, it should be about half way up the passenger side. The ones i have filled you need a pretty ggod size socket to get the plug out. Now and this is speaking from experience if it needs a torx bit then it is not the fill plug. Is it leaking gear oil or is it leaking what looks like brake fluid? If it is the brake fluid then it is the slave cylinder. Make sure you use Synchromesh from penzoil for the tranny. If you use what the book says you will kill it in no time. Trust me.

I was close, Paul in Seven Hills said that he laid out some markers for people to line up on, Jason in Seven Hills balanced a couple times I guess. I just didn't have the time As for a fill plug, I thought it was On the drivers side. a couple sockets size bigger than 3/4 the AX-5 is passengerside. BEN

Her jeep has the 4 banger like our ben. I know he said 6 but, he hasn't dug into the other side yet. He got the 6 from the start on his jeep. But, the little woman got stuck with a 4. Passenger side Mike and remeber theres a differance in the 4 and 6 trannies.
