I have spent the last few days getting ready for AOTH. We are leaving in the morning to catch a plane to Cabo and won't be back untill the 14th, we will be back for 12 hrs. and then leaving for Kentucky. Installed a Marine Machine steering system, refurbished the trailer and also acquired a new tow vehicle. The steering went on with a few issues but nothing too bad. The first set of rams were 2" too long, and had to send them back. It was also hard to purge the system but finally got it done. The tow vehicle is a 03' Suburban 2500 with a 8.1L engine geared 3:73 with towing package 2x4. I've been looking since Dec. for something like this, they are hard to find around here.
We will be getting to Jamestown on the 16th and hooking up with ROADTRIP SE with a load of brisket and pork loin.

See ya'll there,
Mark & Polly :chilipepp:

Mark If you have a posi rear in the sub you will love it, on it will pull a slick ramp better then most 4X4's. Mine is the first non 4X4 tow vehicle I have had in near 40 years, I will never go back!

MOP this is the first non 4x4 I have had since 82' thought the two wheel drive might get better fuel mileage than a 4x4:wink: Thanks Steve, and Byron it's all about who your guide is.
