If all holds as is,I should be headed that way between 0930 and 1030 hrs,crack of dawn departure impossible at this point(16 hr days).

I should arrive between 1430 and 1530 hrs,give or take a few minutes.

Got all my junk in the trucks and tool boxes. My cucv is on a trailer being pulled by me with a 2000 Chevy 3500 and my buddy's blazer will be loaded in the am along with my Polaris rzr onto a gooseneck being pulled by my dad in his 2015 Chevy 3500.
Rolling out as early as possible

We had a heck of a day between working and getting stuff ready to include shopping for vittles etc, but we got er did with the help of Tinwoodsman, Zout and my crew!!

Got the camper prepped and provisions loaded, MVs loaded on my 4 car hauler and the dually running...just not quite up to par.

Plan on rolling out tomorrow between 10:30 - 11:00hrs.

Y'all save us some fun!

Anyone want me to bring my Lighting kit? I should be arriving Thursday afternoon.

 

[Streamline]

I made it..hooray.... nope,nope gone again, be back Wednesday evening!

 

[Al Harvey]

Got in yesterday afternoon and finished setting up this morning. If I got something you purchased just swing by.

 

[AMGeneral]

Well,I know when I am licked

While doing my extensive checkout before I hit the road,I found that the #2 U joint on the main driveshaft to the rear axle was out,while removing said shaft for a quick replacement,I found the transfer case rear output shaft bearings were out as well.


After taking everything apart for a "quick" repair,one of the outer duals gave way with a mighty BANG, So I am gonna take this as a sign to stay home this year.


Simp is I think going to make a run up here and pick up the M322 LT for delivery at a later date.

Maybe next year.

Get your butt in the Dodge and come on down

 

[DanM7890]

Or meet me at the house and ride with me down on Friday.

Any one in or near Cherokee county Georgia that has an outer rear bearing seal? Just one?

I found one that had rotated, torn off the key and basically ground it up.


** Edit: I searched through my parts boxes again and I found an outer seal! Truck is back together and we plan to roll out tomorrow after the rush hour traffic dies down.

Well guys I rolled in just after dark. Talked to Clinton for a minute then got the trucks and rzr unloaded. I'm staying in Kane's RV, y'all know what my truck looks like and my rzr is camo with a small flag on the driver's side.

See all you guys in the am

 

[michigandon]

Developed a bad oil leak on the ride down, AND the tailpipe fell off! Had to turn around and head back home.

I know that I'll see *some* of you guys at Denton this spring. Haven't missed a single one of those, not about to start now!

I finally rolled in around 6:00 PM. My M35A3 broke down on Apple Pie Ridge Road about 2 miles from US 441. The check valve on top of the fuel tank plugged up. The truck quit on a bad curve. I flagged down a guy in a pickup and he pulled me off the road. I found a farmer that lent me the one tool I needed but didn't have with me and about 2-1/2 hours later I was back on the road. Having fun!

 

[CUCVLOVER]

Hey guys.
I was wondering what time does breakfast start at the mkt? I looked around in the thread but since I'm on the verge of being in a coma from the drive down I didn't see it.
Thanks guys

 

[Recovry4x4]

Not quite sure. All the years here, I don't recall ever making breakfast.

Uh oh.
I thought there was breakfast, lunch, and supper from the mkt ?
