    L.O.S.T. Trick or Jeep run

    Mike and Tammy from L.O.S.T. organized a Halloween Trick or Jeep run up the Crown King trail with props and everything. Balloons around I-10 and highway 74 (AZKJ tells me this is a regular occurrence): A good turnout, even with several last minute cancellations (Dudes! Where are your...

    Before and After

    Before :) : After several thousand dollars and a trip to Big Bear :D : We had AllJ do a full Frankenlift II with the OME struts and shocks, got very lightly used Rubicon wheels and tires (2000 miles), and figured as long as we were there we'd have the...

    Chivo Falls, 08/19/07 Pictures

    The folks over at L.O.S.T. put together a run to Chivo Falls (just northeast of Tucson). My theme song for this run was "Hit The Skids" by Local H. The new AllJ rails proved their worth, and even the gas tank skid took a hit or two. Casey takes the "easy" line while Dan goes the hard way...

    Mt. Lemmon Control Road Run

    o8k, Corwyyn, and I ran the Mt. Lemmon Control Road - nothing much to speak of, but it's very bouncy to settle in o8k's newly installed Frankenlift springs on the CRD. Very heavy springs. A little ways up we stopped for a landscape photo op, right in front of a hill with a trail that went up...

    Wrangler MT/Rs and gas mileage

    Do the MT/Rs get substantially lower gas mileage, or do they wear really fast on the highway? Is it worth hanging on to a second set of wheels for long road trips? Thanks in advance, Russ

    Yet more Frankenlift questions

    1. Would my CVs be less taxed without the spacer in front? Enough to make a difference? I don't necessarily need a lot of clearance, I mostly want the better springs. 2. Here's a tough one - Is it possible to qualify the difference between the OME struts and the Ranchos? Are they worth $120...

    Double Rainbow, with obligatory Jeep

    We had an unusual full double rainbow, intact from end to end. Faint, but unmistakable, with "self-portrait":

    Bull Springs Road/Gardner Canyon Run

    o8k and his friend Glenn and I did Bull Springs Road south of Tucson. It didn't rain on us at all (although the skies were threatening), but it had obviously rained a lot in this area in the last few days - many washouts and ruts. I didn't get a good lineup picture, but here's my Libertad and...
