To get there you go to Rio rancho. Take 528 to southern and follow southerm west all the way tell it turns into dirt, keep going about another 2 miles tell you see my jeep.

Myself and another local are planning on being there.

hey how far into the puerco. Do you need a 4x4 to get down in there. my dad is very familar with the back of southern/rio puerco he knows it like the back of his hand so if you could give me a little idea of where it is my dad would be able to know where it is easily.
Thanks, Cody

I was thinking somewhere by "body shop", but not to sure where we will end up.

What kind of rocks will be on? Just wondering if I should stick with the good old Panthers, or should I try somethin' new.

zerimar · 08-07-2009, 09:06 PM

Since when do you run Panthers?

Most of the rock out there is sand stone.

I've been runnin' panthers for some time now, they have been my "old stand by". I always keep a set mounted up with me just encase.

Have you tried the new foams out yet?

I never bought them. I keep an eye on them though, keep telling myself to just buy the darn things. I didn't buy the rims either. I did buy some shock mounts, got rid of the battery tray and lowered the CG a bit. I actually got about 1/4" more ground clearance but lowered the CG. Now if I can get myself to fab up an upper link mount to relocate the electronics, I'll have everything about as low as possible. I also picked up some longer upper links which may or may not help with torque twist. I haven't tested it on the rocks so I guess we'll see tomorrow.

Sorry guys and gals, but it looks like I am out for crawlin' on Sunday. My youngest has gotten really sick today with some sort of infection. We spent most of the day today at the hospital with her and a 105 degree fever. So I am going to stay at home with here wile the wife works Sunday morning. Bummmer... Maybe next time.

zerimar · 08-09-2009, 07:11 PM

No problem Mitch. I hope she's feeling better. There was some nice rocks out there. It was f'ing hot though.
