Brian0758 Posted April 24, 2010 Report Posted April 24, 2010 So we don't forget/miss anyone on Wednesday, if you responded as a "maybe" please indicated whether or not you are caravaning with us. Craig, Marty and I were talking about the route today and we are thinking I-81 to I-40 should be the best route. This 2012 Jeep Rubicon
Scavenger Posted April 25, 2010 Report Posted April 25, 2010 I think that works. Right now, I can't map it on Google Maps since they still show that section of I-40 closed. But, looking at some other maps, it appears that taking I-40 will only add about 10 minutes to the trip, BUT, if we don't have to slow down 2006 MCS, SB/S , "B.A." Performance: DINAN "Stage 5" tune, throttle body, boost kit (fuel pump, pulley), & CAI; JCW exhaust sans resonator, brakes, & GP IC; DDM IC diverter; CSF Racing Aluminum Radiator Suspension: DINAN front strut brace; Alta 22mm rear bar; KW V1 coil-overs; H-Sport adjustable rear control arms; CravenSpeed strut underators Interior: CravenSpeed gauge mounts with Cooper S boost and voltage, & shift well cover Wheels: Enkei PF01 17" Audio: Kenwood Excelon KDC-X994 HU; MTX Terminator speakers F&B Alan @ opensource.com
