We are coming up on registration and my possible team mate dropped out and my backup got another team mate. Looking for a new one, preferably on the GMT360 platform and on a 33 inch tire. (For spare parts purposes). I could go through the details but the thread on ExPo does a better job.

Anyone that is interested and is closer to New England or willing to make the drive please PM me or chime in.

I tried to figure it out but the logistics just did not work. Sorry.
Hope you found someone and get in today.

Yup. One of the usual guys that wheel with us everyone either assumed he wouldnt be available to go or assumed someone else asked already. Was able to give me a positive confirmation within a couple hours. Now its time to make a list of mods before the trip...

Rory, I am in if you're still interested. I will have money available on Friday. Hopefully there is still room available.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.

Nope, but it sure as hell will be! I got to pick up my new front diff next week.
I told my wife I can fix the TB how I want it or buy a Jeep Rubicon, she went with the TB. I can spend whatever I need to get the truck back better than ever so long as I don't break u$. Front diff/ rear axle upgrade 4.10 gears, 5 new Dick Cepek Mud Country tires, a few other little things and maybe get the teardrop lifted so I could take it on the trip.

I like it. I am looking forward to this trip, it should be a great time. Now to work on finding an A-driver that can afford to take a week off work and help out with some of the finances.Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.

I talked to Dave (dvanbramer88) he said he might come along and Co-pilot. I'll be taking off 2 days before and after for travel time without pushing it too hard.

Oh hell yes. Our tentative plan is to camp Tuesday night in Maine. I can let you guys know the campground if you are interested.

Rory, I saw your post about getting some height and tires under your trailer. Depending on what you are looking for, I have my original set of tires (that are on my trailer/spares at the moment) available. I will be getting a new set in the next few months or so if you are interested in them. 285/75r16 Guard Dogs on black steel D windows. Also if there are any other spares or parts that you guys think we will need I am all for sharing the spare parts load. I am planning on a couple sets of TREs and a set of CVs and a set of hubs, plus all of my normal spares.
