The TJ links were really weak, I sold a ton of them when I worked at Quadratec, they usually have a few dozen in stock if you can't find any used ones. Crown Automotive 52087771 Front Sway Bar Link for 97-06 Jeep Wrangler TJ | Quadratec

My wife Accampb2470 (Alexandra) will be coming, but probably not competing. I'll be at work.

FYI, Rugged Radios is offering a 20% discount to club members. If interested, contact a member of the BOD for information on how to order. https://www.ruggedradios.com

Currently the game is still a go. I don't think they'll make the call until the rain actually starts falling.

FYI... they paused yesterdays game due to the storm, it will be resumed at 5pm today. Our game will start 40 minutes after the first game completes.

Hi! My name is John, my wife is Faith and our ‘98 XJ is Cherry Darling. We just bought her in January. Is there room for us? We are not members yet, I just recently found you guys while looking for a Blue Rocks game to attend. Please let me know if we can be added to the list. I would love to drive her on the field and I have a big American flag to fly as well.

Thanks

Welcome! We think we can fit 40 Jeeps onto the field and we're currently around 30 on the list. So come on out and we'll definitely squeeze you in if there's room.

What Jeep questions does your friend have?

I'll start... what does the 419 mean on bed of my Gladiator?

I bumped up the quota for all members, hopefully that'll fix it for you. But, to delete conversation, you'll need to be on the conversation list page Conversations - Delaware Jeep Association (delawareja.com) and hit the check box above the conversation list. That'll select all conversations on the current display (20 per page). Sadly, you'll need to go to the next page and select those, and so on.... Once you have everything selected that you want to delete, look in the bottom right corner of the browser where it says ## Conversations, click on that and choose "Leave" to delete them.

With the forum upgrade, the signature block was reset. The signature content was moved to the "About me" section of your profile. You can copy that and move it to your signature here: Signature Management - Delaware Jeep Association (delawareja.com) There are a bunch of account and profile settings you can adjust if you like as well.

We decided to go camping rather than try to find random people to tag along with.

Technically speaking, you should go to a shop so they can pull a vacuum and then add the refrigerant. But, considering that you're more than likely going to need to replace some stuff in a year or two... might as well save the money and just get a kit from Advance Auto (right, TheDarkSide ?). If you want to get it taken care of properly now, check with an AC shop to diagnose why it's low. It leaked somewhere... if you're lucky, it'll just be a dry rotted o-ring, but more likely you'll have to swap out the evaporator or condenser. Hopefully not the evaporator, that's a PITA to replace.

Sounds fun. I'm going to try to be there, I'll know for sure as we get a little closer. I'm a newb and it will be the first time out so I'll start with green/blue I think? It would be good to scout things out for the big group ride in May when I bring the whole family.

Is there a club radio we use? I have a beofeng vhf/uhf handheld but no license so I can listen but not broadcast. Do you guys tend to use gmrs or CB? I might pick one up before the ride.

Officially, I think the club is still using CB, although several do have FRS/GMRS radios. I have a ham license and can run FRS/GMRS. Actually, I don't have a CB in my new Jeep, I guess I'll have to pick up a handheld. Probably worth a discussion later this year.

The forum is back online, a few template issues, but I think all of the content was brought over safely.

FYI, the forum will have some downtime during the day on Wednesday which may extend into Thursday. This for a software update, no loss of data is expected.

I would never pay over MSRP. Too many Jeep dealers out there still selling Wranglers/Gladiators for invoice or less. You might have to take a road trip, but it's worth it. By the time we're ready to dump her car for a JL or Bronco, I'm hopeful that the supply chain is back to normal and the insane markups are long gone.

What's your pick? The desert runner with a V6 turbo, or a rock crawler with a big V8?

My wife really likes the Bronco, and we might get one in a few years, but probably not the Raptor, just too much money. It's fun to dream though. If we were going to drop that much money, then it would be a tough decision, the power output of the V8 is great for offroaders. Even though I'm a Mopar guy, Ford did a lot right with the new Bronco.

You are, the forum just hasn't been updated, yet. I'll vouch for you.

What plans do you have for your Jeep this year?

I'm planning to add diff guards and hopefully a lift kit somewhere during the year. With the extra length of the Gladiator, breakover and departure angles are a little rough, so hoping to add a 3" lift. Although, that might start down the slippery slope with now having a lot of wheelwell space and needing to add bigger tires to help it look proportional.

Anyone interested in a black Spiderweb shade for a JK? It's the front section, so fits either 2-door or short bus. Several years old, but only used a few times since the hardtop rarely came off. $20 Located in Marshallton, DE 19808
