Approximately how far is it? I'm an hour north of you guys, maybe I can meet at one of your places and car pool? Who all is going?

Yeah, NIRC GTG.
I think Adam and maybe Robert are going to meet me here and then we'll take the 4Runner down... you can ride with us.

Adam or Robert, will we need to take Robert's wagon?

The wagon is a good idea at the Indian caves. It's a bit of a walk form the parking lot.

badhoopty · 08-30-2013, 05:21 PM

rick if u want u can ride with me and liz. i dont think john would have enough room for 4 dudes and a bunch of rigs. ill take timmy and the dingo for sure, dunno if ill bring any other rigs.

i aint quite sure where it is unless i missed a post.

Die-Laughing · 08-30-2013, 05:39 PM

edit: I did a 8lug conversion on my K44's & picked up a set of UTE beadlocks .. whatchu think?

BAD 1 · 08-30-2013, 06:22 PM

I am going to have to sit this one out. It is Cindy's B Day Monday and I will be taking her out this weekend. Don't want my toy trucks to interfere. I am still trying to extract these Flunkin bearing from Ponch and need to place order for replacements. Hope to be ready for next weekend.

Die-Laughing · 08-30-2013, 06:34 PM

johnnyh66 · 08-30-2013, 07:03 PM

I'll post up the spot latter or tomorrow... we had today off work so Ive been on my cell all day. I just need to fire up the laptop but about to watch Breaking Bad.

johnnyh66 · 08-30-2013, 07:06 PM

That's cool Robert, take care of the lady first... and be ready for next time, maybe the Cliffs!

DL, nice wheel combo... they'd be bad ass with scale hardware!
Nice pic too.

Try Airgas.com, they have stores all over Chicago and the suburbs, for welding and brazing supplies.

johnnyh66 · 08-30-2013, 08:04 PM

Mike Flea · 08-30-2013, 08:29 PM

Yep, sold in sticks or coils by weight based on market price of silver. The flux will be with it.

swezy207 · 08-31-2013, 03:58 AM

The Airgas brand is called Radnor. That's where I get my silver solder from also. Kinda pricey, last time it was about $40 for a package of like 3-4 sticks.

Address .... 917 Percy Dr Bourbonnais, IL 60914
The address in the ttc thread is off just a little. If you google it the parking area is actually at the riverfront park.
Not too hard to find. What time do you want to get down there?

11? Earlier?

I got my lr3 back together and siped the BFG's on the bronco. Tomorrow will be fun
