If we're gonna make this annual, I'm betting everyone would prefer warmer weather. This is just a first-time thing to meet up and talk shop. I'm down for making this annual, but can we do it in the spring/summer? :)

Well first off I live in southern oklahoma but no one around here actually wants to do anything so I'm having to broaden my scope and hot springs area is not that far of a drive just 4/5 hours drive. I can't be there the 12th but if y'all have meets every so often I could try to make it to a few.

Sorry to hear that bud. :(

None (well, most) of us have never met. A few on the forum here were kicking around the idea of meeting up and I decided to make them pick a date and time.

The original plan was to have the first meet on the 14th and head to Hot Springs, but since we've never met, we decided to do a "pre-meet" on the 4th to talk Jeep, eat something, and head down to a local mud hole for some fun. Ya know, just to get to know one another.

Then on the 14th we're meeting up to hit superlift in Hot Springs.

You're more than welcome to come to one or both of our meet-ups.

Im betting its the TPS, it was spittin and sputterin when you start out -about 3 gear it would start misfiring and carrying on...
I hate to just go buy a TPS, once installed i cant take it back...and they are 52 bucks! Not a big deal either way, Ill get it narrowed down..its just burning more liquid gold, i mean...gasoline.

- J ust E mpty E very P ocket.

so true..

got my front diff oil changed! Ready to hit some mud!! I have some new Heim joints ordered also, my rear 4-link heims were shot! thank god for rebuildable heims!

SO--we should have like 10-15 or so people showing up?? This is great! Gunna be JEEPS everywhere!!
I think we're nearer twenty now. :)

Yeah, I meant to catch him on that..should still be the 12th, think he got confused by the 4th. Scanned thru the forum and didn't see a change.
Oops. :hide:

Oklatj good to hear your comin down with us bud!! And did I miss somethin about the date changing? Brian said the 14th and I don't wanna show up on the wrong day haha
I don't think I will make the 4th or 12th but if this continues to happen after this I will try my best to show up.

Well that stinks OklaTJ... I'm sure that we will have more events to attend. I would think we would try to hit something up come mid to late spring as Barmanvarn stated in an earlier post. None the less we hope that you may be able to shake loose on the 4th or the 12... there's still a couple of weeks for you to possibly do a schedule reconfiguration :whistling:

I think meeting at the walmart will be a good idea. If we have 20 or so Jeeps it'll be pretty hard to fit them all in a restaurant parking lot- maybe compile people in jeeps and ride to a local restaurant OR there are several restaurants in front of the walmart. Ruby Tuesday, cracker barrel, and some others i think.. We will need to call ahead and have them set up for so many people. You guys choose and I'll call and set that up a day or so before. Jackman is about 10 minutes away from the walmart.
ALSO: If you own tools: bring a bag full of the basic stuff. Torx bits also. Something is bound to break on one of our rigs.
AND; if y'all
Don't have a problem with it, everyone Who is coming please send me a private message or on here of you first name, your matching forum name, and a phone number. Example: Locked- Justin-5014993065....I am
Compiling a list for all of us the day we meet.

I'm just organized. I hate chaos. Thanks for the PM's... I'll whip up some info cards for all our "members." they will be good for future reference on any area of expertise people may have. Keep sending them!
Great idea. Might be good to add each person's location as well? And maybe rig year/model? Just brainstorming.
