EvilJager

So what are the plans foe the weekend?


Didnt you mention something about going to rausch the next weekend?
if so i think thats the week im on vacation.

Matt
09-23-2011, 12:19 PM
I'm driving down Friday night. Then Saturday figured we'll get together (time pending who's coming). Maybe grab a bite to eat or what not, again this depends on who all shows up.... 4 or 5 of us can go sit down somewhere, whereas 10 of us we'll just get hoagies and hang outside if its nice.

Potential RC run the following weekend. Your lift going to be done?

EvilJager
09-23-2011, 12:24 PM
I hope so. The people who make the egr module are slow on production so as soon as sl gets it they will ship

Anyone from NJ... this isn't a bad ride at all for a day trip ;)

CmmdrDan
09-25-2011, 05:48 PM
My first day is October 2nd. If my new work schedule allows it. I will let you guys know.

Matt
09-25-2011, 06:10 PM
Hope you can make it dan.... there might be a "surprise" there https://theultimatejeep.com/notfound.png

CmmdrDan
09-25-2011, 06:36 PM
What kind of surprise!?

Matt
09-27-2011, 04:46 PM
Beefaroni...

BUT- hows your schedule looking? I'll be bringing some tools down to put those spacers on Seans XK. So we can make this a "working meet".

Anyone else interested in coming?? Hey you guys from NJ, it's really not that far for a day meet... We actually used to have meets there from my GM truck forum and there were members from northern NJ and even NY that would drive down for the day.

CmmdrDan
09-27-2011, 06:00 PM
Not sure. I haven't started!

Matt
10-02-2011, 04:59 AM
Less than a week away... anyone else want to meet up? We'll be throwing the leveling spacers on Sean's XK .... and some other stuff https://theultimatejeep.com/notfound.png

CmmdrDan
10-02-2011, 06:17 AM
Sean probably thinks I'm the biggest asshole now after playing xbox with him lastnight haha.

sean112280
10-02-2011, 06:30 AM
No just as long as you dont hang out at walmart in the candy aisle and suck......well family forum here....:)

CmmdrDan
10-02-2011, 07:01 AM
Ahahahahahaah. I want to play with that kid again!

Sal-XK
10-02-2011, 07:04 AM
Sounds like somebody got whopped on LOL

sean112280
10-02-2011, 07:04 AM
we need to friend that guy. so we can make fun of him more...no Sal didnt get whooped up on. We were verbally whooping some kid. and we were on the same team Dan and I.

CmmdrDan
10-02-2011, 07:14 AM
Sal. This kid was yelling at his mom to take him to walmart. It was insane the way he was talking to her. So we went ahead to talk trash to him..or her..whatever he was.

Matt
10-02-2011, 10:10 AM
nothing like telling off a 12 year old while playing a video game, eh Teddy?

CmmdrDan
10-02-2011, 11:56 AM
You got that right!

Matt
10-02-2011, 12:23 PM

10-03-2011, 10:36 AM
i could make this... going to the fights that night but thats not till 430ish.. what time were we looking at? only WK showing up... pffft. wtf.

Matt
10-03-2011, 11:15 AM
I was thinking of meeting up around 10am, at least with Sean, so we can start his leveling spacers. that may take 2-3 hours depending on how cooperative his vehicle is. Then when we're done, hang out and get some lunch. ... and play the rest by ear.

Matt
10-03-2011, 11:17 AM
And I agree.... those WK members need to step it up. :p

CmmdrDan
10-03-2011, 01:00 PM
I am off the night of the 8th. So all I need to do is convince the lady to ride along with me.

sean112280
10-03-2011, 01:14 PM
I am glad you can make it Dan! Oh and for everyone....after we meet up and whatnot you are all welcome over to my house, we are having a "halloween party" a lil early because we are leaving. There will be food and pumpkin carving for the kids and stuff.

CmmdrDan
10-03-2011, 01:57 PM
She said she didn't want to come. So. I guess I'll have to fly solo.

sean112280
10-03-2011, 02:04 PM
sounds good Dan

Matt
10-03-2011, 03:16 PM
Awesome, we doubled our attendee list https://theultimatejeep.com/notfound.png

Sean, is 10AM a good start time for you? Figured we'd probably want to get started somewhat early so we can take a breather and relax after working. What time do you have to be home to get ready for the holloween party?

And thanks for the invite, but i have plans with our friends that evening... turns out we'll have to head home Sunday evening (i thought we could stay till Monday originally but my wife doesn't have off).

sean112280
10-03-2011, 03:38 PM
Matt- yea we did double the attendance:). Can we do 0900? my wife asked if I could be home NLT 3. No problem on the invite. Its open for anyone that wants to come by. Damn so you have to leave Sunday huh? I'm sorry man.

Matt
10-03-2011, 03:48 PM
0900 will work... i'll be up by 7 with the kids anyway! We'll just need to keep the coffee flowing :)

And yeah, i falsely assumed my wife (being a teacher) would have off on Monday... i think it's Columbus Day? But it'll work out. I told her we'll just head home Sunday evening when it's close to the kids bed time and hopefully they pass out on the ride.

sean112280
10-03-2011, 03:50 PM
Awesome sounds good to me. Dunkin donuts sounds great too me as well

Matt
10-03-2011, 04:08 PM
Luckily there's a DD right next to Honeygo Park!

paroxysym
10-04-2011, 04:18 AM
ill be there around 11 or so.. maybe earlier. did you need the floor jack/jackstands?

Matt
10-04-2011, 04:56 AM
we should be good. I'm sure I can squeeze them in somewhere. I'm going to start packing my tools tomorrow night.

sean112280

I'm all in ;)

Matt
10-04-2011, 04:16 PM
All packed up! There's a lot more here than we'll need.... but i'd hate to forget that one socket or extension or something stupid like that.

CmmdrDan
10-05-2011, 10:37 AM
I want to say I'm gonna be there but after last night I don't know if its gonna be a good idea for me to drive up there after working all night. I'm about 75% about this now.

Matt
10-05-2011, 11:33 AM

Sal-XK
10-06-2011, 06:44 PM
I think Jager should make a surprise visit...

I think he's either on his phone typing or killing off a case of beer :) or maybe both LOL

Matt
10-06-2011, 06:45 PM
I just thought he changed the "font" to "Sal"....

EvilJager
10-06-2011, 07:03 PM
Id love to come but it would be late by the time i got there.


And i wish i was killing a case of beer but i have to get up at 3 tomorrow :(

CmmdrDan
10-07-2011, 12:30 AM

Matt
10-07-2011, 08:06 AM
lol. all of my forum names used to be sk1er.. then as I started meeting people for offroading, shows, mountain biking, etc and having to say "hi, I'm skier" I felt dumb and started changing all my forum names to "Matt". For the ones I couldn't change I just put my real name in my sig.

sean112280
10-07-2011, 08:15 AM

Matt
10-08-2011, 05:13 PM
it was a good time. .... except for when I stood in line for 20 minutes at Wendy's while Sean and Dan already had their food and finished eating. lol

Matt
10-08-2011, 05:18 PM
Matt, you get new tires and wheels?

:) was wondering who was going to be the first to notice. no one picked up on it in my "strut spacer install" thread... they were in a few shots

Love it when folks get together for the first time. It's awesome. You get to have so much fun, and it all happens so fast...


I was pretty nervous when I went up to Maryland to meet Dan and Chris for the first time. Was the first time I drove 400+ miles to meet people I had never previously encountered - and on my way up, the only thing that kept going through my mind was... "this could be the last time I drive this Jeep..."

lol... Now I can't wait for the next time we hang out.

Noticeable difference for me!

Matt
10-09-2011, 10:31 AM
its a big time difference! we should've thrown one of the new tires on there before the spacers install... the new tires are over an inch taller than the old/worn stockers.

like we said... it went from a soccer mom vehicle to a "kickass" socket mom vehicle lol. :)
