[Ranger_J]

Hey guys,
My names Joey and Iam stationed in Georgia. New to the site and just got a new truck. M1009 about a week ago. Drove it down to Texas on leave, bought some 36's and about to drive back to Georgia in a week. Get a 4inch lift and let the fun begin. Just wanted to say hi. Ill post up some pics of Krum (yeah I named him..lol) Anyway, Glad to be here.

Welcome!

Consider this an invite to the Ga Rally later this month (link with info in my signature line).

Thanks for your service.

Ditto on the welcome to the site.
You will find a wealth of info here and many folks that can help with mechanical issues if your vehicle has a problem.
My son is stationed at Benning (3rd ID, Kelly Hill) and leaves for his third tour in Iraq in a few days.
You need to touch base with SS member Papa Bear.......he is a Veteran and a stand up guy.
He and his friends operate the Iron Mike Museum located across Victory Drive from the Confederate Gunboat Museum (in the old Farmers Market).
They have regular meetings and I'm sure you would be welcome.
Clinto mentioned the SS Ga rally coming up this month.....it is an annual event and keeps getting bigger and better.
The location is a huge off-road park and if you want to get the M1009 muddy there will be trail rides all weekend.
If you miss it we will have to mark you AWOL and Article 15 ya.
Try to make it and bring some buddies with you.

Did my first fix today. The guy I bought it from had some guy put a new oil pan gasket in. Kept leaking and turns out the guy working on it didnt tighten down the bolts...Sheez lol. Other than that, a tiny spot of desiel leaking out. Thinking another gasket leak. Not bad though. Supposed to get some rain down here in Texas. I hope so, I wanna take my truck out in the mud! I spent all day painting mother's house so...pics have to wait till tomorrow.
